  22. Wally says:

    Genghis Tron – Board Up the House
    Gojira – The Way of All Flesh

    and that’s about it

    Metallica, Trivium, and The Human Abstract are some of the worst absolute worst metal bands out right now.

  23. Wally says:

    Sorry for the double post, but…
    Totally forgot about Third by Portishead. Good, good stuff.

    Also fuck Metallica for recording (to be generous) a decent album and getting album of the year.

    FUCKING
    SERIOUSLY

  24. penile destruction says:

    mother’s hairy cunt = album of the year

  25. penile destruction says:

    wtf… the chimaira vocalist likes lil wayne??!?!?!? what a fucking loser. the best album of 2008 should go to either Origin for “Antithesis” or Enslaved or “Vertebrae”

  26. penile destruction says:

  27. copymynigger says:

    hipsters love lil wayne

  34. Your Mom Hits Harder says:

    Protest The Hero’s “Fortress” is EASILY the best album of 2008, if not of the last fucking decade. “Sequoia Throne” is just a sick fucking track. It makes me want to run around in circles and do spin kicks.

  35. Anonymous says:

    Protest the Hero’s “Fortress” makes me so horny. “Sequoia Throne” is such a fucking sexy song. It makes me want to participate in a circle jerk and cum all over a hardcore kid’s tight little asshole.

  39. Valankir says:

    1. Amon Amarth – Twilight of the Thunder God
    2. Eluveitie – Slania
    3. Testament – Formation of Damnation
    4. Equilibrium – Sagas
    5. Destruction – D.E.V.O.L.U.T.I.O.N.

    Honorable mention to Opeth and Meshuggah

    2009 looking good so far with Lamb of God and Kreator coming soon and potentially (fingers crossed) Wintersun by the end of the year.

  40. Valankir says:

    Oh, almost forgot about Gojira, which should probably be up there too.

  41. asdf says:

    Protest The Hero – Fortress

    Decent to you does not mean decent to everyone else. I know that’s real hard to accept, but your just going to have to live with it…
