Is it too early to start doing top records of 2007 lists?

There are a whole bunch of contenders- LCD Soundsystem, Apparat, the Field, Efterklang...but it's not like the past few years where despite a number of really great albums there was still one that clearly outshone the rest.

I'll save you some trouble... LCD Soundsystem takes the cake ! ! :-D
Hairy Joe Bob:
Do download only 5 song EPs count? If so then Krankenhaus? by BSP is excellent.
Others I liked (in no particular order) include:
Bishop Allen & the Broken String
Simian Mobile Disco - Attack Decay Sustain Release
Wilco - Sky Blue Sky
Kings of Leon - Because of the Times
LCD Soundsystem - Sound of Silver
Electrelane - No Shouts No Calls
Electric Soft Parade - No Need to Be Downhearted
That is all I can think of for now.

You guys with your lists of 25 and 30 are pretty ridiculous. There is no challenge there in the slightest.
I'm writing up a big piece of this, but I think my list pretty much looks like this:
10. Oxbow - The Narcotic Story
9. Animal Collective - Strawberry Jam
8. Nadja - Touched
7. Boris With Michio Kurihara - Rainbow
6. Yellow Swans - At All Ends
5. Melt-Banana - Bambi's Dilemma
4. Bottomless Pit - Hammer Of The Gods
3. Om - Pilgrimage
2. Nina Nastasia & Jim White - You Follow Me
1. Deerhoof - Friend Opportunity
I've listened to Friend Opportunity probably more than any other album this year.
Unfortunately this list isn't entirely complete, since there's a great deal of things I haven't listened to yet! I didn't even know there was a new Bonnie 'Prince' Billy album until a couple of minutes ago! lots of things are missing. But it's close enough to the year's end that I'm just going to kind of give up on trying to cram them all in at the last minute.
Der Turm, der Leute frass:
1. Porcupine Tree - Fear Of A Blank Planet
2. Blackfield - II
3. Porcupine Tree - Nil recurring
4. Jesu - Pale sketches
5. Oceansize - Frames

SOMEONE NEEDS TO UPLOAD THIS ONE. I'm really digging the version of "Rainbow" on the live album with Merzbow.
