does the sigur ros 2008 release really sound much better on vinyl. Not sure if the cd was compressed and from what I have heard in the past the sigur ros vinyl has not been well produced for vinyl
Top Alternative Rock Albums of 2008
In no particular order here is a list. Please feel free to throw in some names I'm always in the search of great new music.
No Age - Nouns (Dinosaur Jr meets Weezer)
The Raconteurs - Consolers of the Lonely
Vampire Weekend - Vampire Weekend
Fleet Foxes - Fleet Foxes (really folky but I dig it)
Beck - Modern Guilt
Sigur Rós - Með Suð Í Eyrum Við (possibly my favorite in 08)
Portishead - Third (took a couple listens but I get it now)
Albums I bought and was let down by:
TV On The Radio - Dear Science
I don't mind the album, it's just that Return to Cookie Mountain was so much better.
My Morning Jacket - Evil Urges
Just didn't sound like MMJ to me. After buying Fleet Foxes recently maybe I'll get into more.
The Black Keys - Attack and Release
A few good tunes, album has too many holes though
Album's I didn't buy or care to buy:
Coldplay - Viva La Vida
Bloc Party - Intimacy
Kings Of Leon - Only By The Night
No Age - Nouns (Dinosaur Jr meets Weezer)
The Raconteurs - Consolers of the Lonely
