ATL Top 20 Albums of 2007
The votes are now in for the ATL team's favourite albums of 2007. All our contributers, presenters and our old pals Donna Legge and Stuart Bailie did their own run downs and Rigsy spent all day yesterday totting up the points on his enormous abacus. Arcade Fire looked hot favourite to win top spot for the second time ('Funeral' was a runnaway winner in 2004) but was in the end just pipped to the post by both LCD Soundsystem and Kings of Leon.
