06.21.09 | Good calls on #3, #14, #22, and #25. Would like to check the Amadou and Mariam out. Think old Portishead was better. |

06.21.09 | prophet178, i tried that exact title but doesnt work for some reason |
sleepyhead
06.21.09 | you may be right about old portishead being better, but i liked the way they reinvented their sound. they also sound a bit darker. its a shame a lot of people were dissapointed by "third" |
mvdu
06.21.09 | I happened to be disappointed in Third, but then, dark isn't always my thing. |
ninjuice
06.21.09 | I'd just go to the Sigur Ros/album page and copy the text that's there.
I love 2, 7, 27 and 29. |

06.21.09 | good choices ninjuice! have you not checked out mercenary's album? (i already tried what you said too!!) |
Yotimi
06.22.09 | 3,5,6,9,10,12,14,26,30 are all great. Good list. |
PuddleSwimmer
06.22.09 | All of these are really great, good list |
sleepyhead
06.22.09 | thanks! i tried to include as much variety as possible in terms of genre, new/old bands, highly acclaimed/overlooked etc. some of these had commercial success, others deserved to have more! i realise 1/3 of this list is metal but that's because i grew up listening to it and 2008 had some great metal albums! |
