I kind of enjoyed that one, a bit hard to get into 26 minute songs though.

Based on the fact that it's been my go to CD in the car pretty much since it came out, I have to say the only album that really stands out for me is

1. giants - old stories
2. vampire weekend - vampire weekend
3. okkervil river - the stand ins
4. retribution gospel choir - self titled
5. dead meadow - old growth
6. the big sleep - sleep forever
7. pygmy lush - mount hope
8. benoit pioulard - temper
9. the helio sequence - keep your eyes ahead

Only album I bought this year, not sure if it's the best, but I like it.

Mooley · « **Reply #11 on:** December 01, 2008, 10:51:20 PM »

I downloaded that a little while ago, Drugs In My Body and Fass are so addictive.

Been feeling that, hopefully that doesn't make me too lame.

LIL WAYNE - DA CARTER 3

sike!

off the top of my head

Rudimentary Peni "no more pain"
nothing too spectacular, but this band is still keeping it real, making good music after all these years.

Ghostlimb "bearing and distance"
anyone looking for well written, thrashy, chaotic and fast, yet still melodic, and kinda grindy, hardcore punk, thats completely free of pig squeals and other faux-"br00tality" . . . check this out

Morrissey "greatest hits"
yeah its mostly previously released but who cares

alums that shoulda been good, but werent:
h2o"nothing to prove"
motorhead . . i dont even remember what its called
dillinger 4 "civil war"
