Best Album of 2008

I know it may be a little to early for this, but I don't really see any other good albums coming out that please my musical cravings so what the heck.

In your opinion of course, what is/going to be the best album of 2008?

I personally was impressed by Indestructible by Disturbed, although Rise and Fall, Rage and Grace by The Offspring is a close second

Jakob Dylan-Seeing things.

Well if Metallica releases their new album this year, then that will be the best album of 2008.

Disturbed very well might be the worst band I've ever heard.

Mine (so far) would either be Learn the Hard Way by the Copyrights or Gender Studies by Team Stray.

The Black Keys - Attack and Release
Beck - Modern Guilt.

Off the top of my head.

we have to wait and see. the year is only half over.

Looks like we have a lot of rock fans here >.>

Opeth - Watershed

So far it is either -

Conor Oberst - Self Titled
Beck - Modern Guilt
Hot Chip - Made in the dark

Rock: Panic at the Disco - Pretty. Odd.
Pop: Madonna - Hard Candy
Rap: Lil Wayne - The Carter III
Country: I'm not sure yet....
Folk: She and Him - Volume 1

I have yet to hear an album this year better than Death Cab for Cutie's Narrow Stairs. Coldplay's Viva La Vida comes close.

Panic at the Disco is not Rock IMO. It's a mixture of Pop and crap.

Metallica's album sounds great from what I've heard. Most people hate metallica so I won't even get into that debate. I will say however, St. Anger was very rough but they have a new producer Rick Ruban and are going more traditional so it should be an old school record.

Anyway heres how I break down 08

Best so far: Formation of Damnation: Testament

Best to come: Death Magnetic - Metallica 
All Hope Is Gone: Slipknot

most people anymore don't know good music if it jumped up and bit em' in the ass tho.

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!!

My favourite so far may be Red, Yellow, and Blue by Born Ruffians. Though I will admit I also really dig the self titled debut by Hercules and Love Affair.

The Arm by the Islands.

Both of the Nine Inch Nails albums that were released.

So far its between:

Portishead - Third
Fuck Buttons - Street Horrsing
Pyramids - Pyramids
Youthmovies - Good Nature
M83 - Saturdays = Youth
Errors - It's Not Something But It Is Like Whatever

And im forgetting some others, quite a good year so far.

Not sure yet it is only July after all though the new Futureheads album is a contender - that could all change with the new Bloc Party album.

Opeth - Watershed

Everybody, go listen to it now!

Mine is Disturbed - Indestructible. I have not been impressed by many albums this year so far, imo.

Does In Rainbows count?

Mothafuckin In Rainbows.

Coldplay - Viva La Vida 

Probably The Mars Volta-The Bedlam in Goliath
Then The Rancontours -Consolers of the Lonley

I did enjoy Disturbed's new album as well

Killer Mike - I Pledge Allegiance to the Grind II or Nas - Untitled.

Michael Jackson - Thriller 25

Disturbed's  Indestructible was very good as well

Nas - Untitled...I hoping this year will pickup in the music scene around September.

That was my first idea, but it came out on October 10, 2007.

5. Beck - Modern Guilt
4. No Age - Nouns
3. Vampire Weeked - self-titled
2. The Black Keys - Attack & Release
1. The Raconteurs - Consolers of the Lonely

so far my favorite has been Disturbed's Indestructible, but there's still new Slipknot, Metallica, Guns N' Roses + more to look forward to.

And I haven't listened to Opeth's Watershed yet.

Nas - Untitled
Gnarls Barkley - The Odd Couple
Erykah Badu - New Amerykah Part One

Yeah, pretty slow year for Hip Hop. Last year was much better.

This year has been pretty bad for music so far, so I'd pick "Viva la Vida - Coldplay" even though the album didn't blow me away.

Dream theater.Systematic Chaos  

oh, and Fleeting Foxes is the Panda Bear of 2008
