It's a near impossible task to try to encapsulate a summer in one compilation (although those folks at Now That's What I Call... don't half try) but the following is DiS' returning Editor's attempt at a personal soundtrack to the Summer of 2008.

We'd like to know what songs you would use to finish this tape, and what would make it onto your Summer '08 road trip C90/CDR?

1. Death Cab for Cutie 'I Will Possess Your Heart'
Words like throb and haunting don't even begin to do this justice. The track seems to have followed me on my travels this year and I was surprised to hear many of the American radio stations playing it in full.
