It's December, and that means every single person who listens to music is sharing his or her thoughts on the best albums, songs, music videos, and whatever else of the year. We're not saying this is a bad thing -- we love seeing what people listened to and what they loved ... And we love sharing our own thoughts!

In case you haven't perused our Top 10 Albums of 2014 yet, you can check out the gallery above. We're pretty proud of this list, and even though you might disagree with some of our choices, we're sure we can all find some common ground in it.

In fact, we're so proud of the list that we've partnered up with a few of our favorite independent record stores across the country to give away the Top 5 albums on vinyl!

The three stores and their albums are listed below -- all you have to do is follow @DiffuserFM and each store and retweet the messages, and you'll be entered to win! We're going to pick the three winners on Tuesday Dec. 23 at 12PM ET -- so make sure you've entered by then! (Read our official contest rules here.)

Good luck!

No. 1 and No. 2, courtesy of Bull Moose

Bull Moose might be an indie store, but they've taken over the New England area with 11 locations! In addition to selling vinyl, they also keep their customers busy with video games, movies and comic books.

Bull Moose will be giving away Alt-J's 'This Is All Yours' and Ryan Adams' 'Ryan Adams'!


No. 3 and No. 4, courtesy of Mills Record Company

Mills Record Company hasn't even been open for two years, and yet they've grown into the premier vinyl shop in Kansas City -- and they've already doubled their size. From a steady stream of in-store performances to a huge selection of new and used vinyl, Mills is a must-stop if you're ever in KC.

Mills Record Company will be giving away Cloud Nothing's 'Here and Nowhere Else' and The War On Drugs' 'Lost In the Dream.'


No. 5, courtesy of Euclid Records

There are few stores in the Midwest that can rival the selection found at St. Louis' Euclid Records. New and used vinyl, tons of CDs, and even magazines make for a shopping experience like none other. In St. Louis? Euclid needs to be on your to-do list.

Euclid Records will be giving away Beck's 'Morning Phase.'
