Before you make your 2008 list (blues, albums, beatles, Ringo Star)

Zombeels · 11-25-2008, 12:10 PM

What albums do you think people should hear before everyone makes their top albums of 2008 lists. Choose one or two albums that hardly anyone has heard of or that are flying under the radar.

Pica Beats - Beating Back The Claws Of The Cold

RIYL: Belle & Sebastian, The Kinks

The M's - Real Close Ones

RIYL: T-Rex, Walkmen

RJD2 - The Third Hand

Fink - Distance and Time

Giraffes? Giraffes! - More Skin with Milk-Mouth
- Sounds like a more energetic Explosions in the Sky. The drumming is sick.

Porcupine Tree - Nil Recurring
- Not obscure whatsoever, but this thing went pretty much unnoticed and I feel that it's Steven Wilson's strongest release yet.

Johnny Flynn - A Larum
- I cannot remove the image of Ray Davies / The Kinks when I hear this. There's something about his voice that is just as soothing as Ray Davies'. That is, if you consider Davies' voice soothing.

Willie Nelson and Wynton Marsalis - Two Men With the Blues
- Just awesome. Listen to it and make your own opinion. Or at least listen to it.

Nil Recurring twas last year but was a good release. We Lost The Skyline was this years release. Props for Girrafes? Giraffes though-great album.

American Gothic - The Smashing Pumpkins
Another great composition by Billy Corgan and Chamberlan ignored by the public.

Liverpool 8 - Ringo Starr
Not enough people even know that Ringo Starr existed after the Beatles!

Everyone knows. They just don't care. Similar to how he is with his fans.

Goddamn AMG. I guess they were kinda right because it's physical release was delayed until February.

Most people know Ringo is out there and this also know he's released nothing but **** since the mid 70's.

I disagree, I thought this was worthy of attention. Oh well, I guess I'm alone on this one
