The best album of 2008


Recommended Posts

Out of those posted so far, I've heard Rise Against and Metallica. I was never a Metallica fan, but Rise Against seemed kind of meh... I need to give it more time, but the only song that stood out was Entertainment, and I didn't really like the subject...

My top albums would probably be..

36 Crazyfists - The Tide And Its Takers

Metallica - Death Magnetic

AC/DC - Black Ice

Meshuggah - obZen

Ill Nino - Enigma

In Flames - A Sense Of Purpose

MGMT - Oracular Spectacular

Gnarls Barkley - The Odd Couple

Deftones - Eros would be on my list no doubt if it wasn't for the delays & Chi's crash :(

Music event was T in the Park where I saw Rage Against The Machine play :)

Deftones - Eros would be on my list no doubt if it wasn't for the delays & Chi's crash :(

I feel so bad for him, so long and still the same condition :( I follow updates on another forum, and it's come to the point where people are getting afraid when a new update pops up because they fear for the worst.

Deftones wouldn't be the same without Chi... :no:

I know the feeling. As sure as I am he will make a full recovery, I can't help fearing the worst sometimes when reading the Deftones blog. It definitely sounds like he is fighting and making a strong recovery from the wording in the latest entry..

On that note, Chi's condition still remains about the same. I wish I could elaborate, but there's not to much to add at this time, other than I know he's ****ed and wants the f*** outta' that hospital......................for real, this I know.

For me its Kids In Glass Houses - Smart Casual, but most people wouldn't have heard of them I imagine.

As some people above have mentioned:

Foals - Antidotes

Kings of Leon - Only by the Night

Also I was pleasantly impressed with the new Fall Out Boy album.

My list:

  • Metallica - Death Magnetic
  • Guns N' Roses - Chinese Democracy
  • Blue Stahli - Antisleep Vol. 01 (It's a free download! :) http://www.fixtstore.com/page/3/freestuff )
  • Celldweller - Soundtrack for the Voices in My Head Vol. 01 (Again, a free download! :) Go to the same place as the Blue Stahli album)
  • Disturbed - Indestructible
  • Feeder - Silent Cry
  • Innerpartysystem
  • Nickelback - Dark Horse

My top 5 albums of 2008 are:

  1. Metallica - Death Magnetic
  2. Guns N' Roses - Chinese Democracy
  3. Innerpartysystem
  4. Nickelback - Dark Horse
  5. Blue Stahli - Antisleep Vol. 01

    • Tim Cook: "The US over time began to stop having as many vocational kinds of skills." What's the point of wasting time getting those skills if you can't get a job with them? Good Lord, maybe he and his cohort of CEO's who exported all these jobs to China should just shut the f**k up :D
    • I made a new Cinematic/Trailer for the game, this will be the intro, still a work in progress!  I also updated the Steam page with a ton of new screenshots! 👀 https://store.steampowered.com/app/3925340/Incoherence_Dark_Rooms/  
    • Closed-loop cooling and a custom 800G network protocol let the $7.3B campus run as one AI training machine. Microsoft confirmed June 23, 2026, that its Fairwater campus in Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin, is fully operational — and the engineering behind it makes the facility something fundamentally different from every data center that came before it. Where conventional cloud infrastructure racks up general-purpose servers and parcels out workloads to each one independently, Fairwater links hundreds of thousands of NVIDIA GB200 Blackwell GPUs into a single, coherent cluster using a two-story building design, 800-gigabit-per-second Ethernet fabric, and a proprietary networking protocol co-developed with OpenAI and NVIDIA. The result, according to Microsoft, is the closest thing to a purpose-built AI supercomputer that any company has ever placed in commercial operation. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/319205/20260627/microsoft-opens-fairwater-wisconsin-ai-campus-runs-one-supercomputer-via-800g-ethernet.htm
