Best Album of 2008

[alex.the.forge]

Looks like its time to buy a new Portishead album. I love the first one. If this many of you can agree on one thing it must be really good.

don't expect anything like the first one though, it's quite different - that's why I liked it!

[TomDJ]

Clark - Turning Dragon
Noze - Songs on the Rocks
Kraak & Smaak - Plastic People
De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig - De Machine

[DjDiabolik]

Brownout - Homenaje Down and dirty Latin funk with an afrofunk twist ...
Madlib - Beat Konducta Vol. 6: Dil Withers Suite (Stones Throw) an ode to the master
Heliocentrics - Out There ... lighthearted ambient trip out

[loquat]

1) Bon Iver - For Emma, Forever Ago (technically 2007 but was 2008 for me)
2) Portishead - Third
3) Fleet Foxes - Fleet Foxes

PLacidBasilisk had this right when he posted in December 2008. Why is this thread still alive?

I heard the new Huey Lewis is sa-lam-in

i heard its BOSS

wait what happened to the news? were they sidetracked by the power of love?

I wish the peak of my career was having song in the intro to back to the future.

I think they turned into The Media and decended in to the depths of hell.
