3. doesnt' matter



I think I see your point.

I dont know why VLV has not gotten more discussion around here. I know Coldplay isn't the most popular band on these boards, but VLV is one fantastic and epic album.

Strider

[Trail_Blazer]

I don't listen to a whole helluva lotta new music, but from the 3 new albums I've bought so far this year I'd rank them as follows:

1. "Rise & Fall, Rage & Grace" by Offspring

2. "The Vegas Years" by Everclear

3. "Indestructible" by Disturbed


I'm looking forward to "Death Magnetic" by Metallica, plus the new Our Lady Peace, Dragon Force, and possible new Green Day albums that should be coming out later this year as well.

Side Note: I miss Audioslave :(

[Serenity]

Consoler Of The Lonely - The Raconteurs
Silent Cry - Feeder
Viva La Vida - Coldplay


Can't Wait for Oasis New Album

[therealjohng]

1. Home Waters by Velveteen
2. Viva La Vida by Coldplay
3. Narrow Stairs by Death Cab for Cutie
4. Third by Portishead


Narrow Stairs is the best album I've heard in three years.


?

[The Heart Collector]

I haven't heard much good this year, to be honest. Jamie Lidell - Jim, maybe. That's not in an any way an album I'd call "#1 of the year" though, so I dunno.


New music sucks. These shitty fucking bands like Hercules and Love Affair... ugh.

[tubbsred]

Gnarls Barkley - The Odd Couple
MC Chris - MC Chris Is Dead
Katy Perry - One Of The Boys
NIN - The Slip and Year Zero
and hopefully here soon Motley Crue - Saints Of Los Angeles

[BadCoverVersion]

These shitty fucking bands like Hercules and Love Affair... ugh.

the album is fantastic. have you actually listened to it...? no offence intended.

i saw jamie lidell live a couple of months ago...he's one of the best singers i've ever heard...and his beatboxing etc. is really, REALLY impressive.

[Sigur509]

?

The new DC leaked as Velveteen, and if you listen to it, you can see how I got then both confused.

[chinton]

Am I really the only one who would put Accelerate in their Top 10 of 8. I love the record. I guess Im alone.

[someguy]

the album is fantastic. have you actually listened to it...? no offence intended.

i saw jamie lidell live a couple of months ago...he's one of the best singers i've ever heard...and his beatboxing etc. is really, REALLY impressive.

The only standouts are the Antony tracks, everything else is just decent. The dislike is understandable though since it's basically one giant nostalgia trip to 70s disco.

Jamie Lidell was too much for me, that whole sound of the album ended up being pretty grating.

I'm with THC about not hearing anything very good this year. The only album I found to be good was The Presets album, but I really hope that come December it doesn't end up being my favourite of the year since it's hardly an amazing album.

What the fuck is up with some of these albums getting tons of praise this year? No Age? Deerhunter? Fuck Buttons? The Cool Kids? Lil Wayne? Los Campesinos?! All of those albums were boring as fuck or just okay.

[Kevin Smith fan]

I haven't heard much good this year, to be honest. New music sucks.

Is it just me or is every new band being praised just another variation of electronic noises and calamity?
*Caugh*Animal Collective, Man Man, etc. *Caugh*

[notchreturns]

1. the hold steady - stay positive
2. portishead - third
3. nick cave and the bad seeds - dig lazarus dig
4. fleet foxes - s/t
5. british sea power - do you like rock music

top 5 so far.

all great.

[Tayzlor]

I root for Hercules and Love Affair because I, weirdly enough, possess an irrational affection for them but I cannot seem to get entirely into their album...there are some killer songs for sure but I dunno, I suppose I'm looking for more of a flow. Their hype-garnering status doesn't bother me at all.

And I still like that Vampire Weekend album! It should be all cloying and the like but it charms me every time. It transports me to that romanticized version of Ivy league living I had when I was like in high school.

That Hot Chip album is underrated too. Talented guys.

Any opinions on the latest Bonnie "Prince" Billy album? I thought Oldham was indie royalty but I've heard nothing from these parts.

[Cosimo]

so far...

[echo_bravo]

I have only been able to listen to a bunch of mostly commerical stuff so I havent had time to listen to a bunch of obscure bands. I need to get on top of that.

So far my picks are...

1. The Mars Volta
2. TV on the Radio
3. Gnarles Barkley
4. The Raconteurs
5. Beck
6. Portishead
7.?
8.?
9.?
10.?

Only 6 albums I have really really dug so far. Hip Hop has been really dissapointing so far this year.

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/61KhM8weBDL._SL500_AA280_.jpg

[detective mills]

So far, in no order my favorites are:

Radiohead - In Rainbows (officially released in stores this year)
Coldplay - Viva La Vida
Nas - Untitled
Death Cab for Cutie - Narrow Stairs
Gnarls Barkley - The Odd Couple
N.E.R.D. - Seeing Sounds
The Offspring - Rise and Fall, Rage and Grace
Nine Inch Nails - The Slip

The top 3 I expect will remain in my top 10 all year, but the others could go, as there are a lot of cds I'm looking forward to for the remainder of 2008.

[The Heart Collector]

in rainbows doesn't count AT ALL.

[chinton]

Am I the only one who just doesn't get Coldplay. It seems that with Viva La Vida this is the time when everybody suddenly gets Coldplay and I still just dont see it. Viva La Vida is fine but once I stop listening to it I just immediately forget about it. I still really like Rush of Blood but even that I can listen to repeatedly.

[D.B. Cooper]

1. Fleet Foxes - Sun Giant EP
2. Fleet Foxes - Fleet Foxes
3. Bon Iver - For Emma, Forever Ago
4. Silver Jews - Lookout Mountain, Lookout Sea ( The Joos)
5. Animal Colective - Water Curses EP
6. Bonnie Prince Billy - Lie Down In The Light
7. Shearwater - Rook

So Far.

[Trail_Blazer]

I want to add "Ultra Beatdown" by DragonForce and "Death Magnetic" by Metallica to my list. So I can do a top 5, since there's not been 10 new albums released this year, that I care to pick:

1. Rise & Fall, Rage & Grace - The Offspring
2. Death Magnetic - Metallica
3. Ultra Beatdown - DragonForce
4. The Vegas Years - Everclear
5. Indestructible - Disturbed

The new Disturbed album is number 5, because out of the 12 songs, only 6 of them were good. The other half sucked fucking balls, and the album overall was a disappointment (just like Disturbed's live shows are - I've unfortunately found out).

Anyway, my top 3 have been stand-out albums for me, and some of my favourite albums from those bands.

[Kevin Smith fan]

1. Rise & Fall, Rage & Grace - The Offspring
