2008: A Year In Review

[mankvill]

Dunno what's up with you people and Genhis Tron...


ALSO: I made a mistake

In the top performances, I meant to put "Illogicist" where i have "Phobia"

whoops!

This kind of kills the suspense, but whatever):

1. Fleet Foxes- Fleet Foxes
2. Made Out of Babies- The Ruiner
3. Genghis Tron- Board Up the House
4. Opeth- Watershed
5. Amon Amarth- Twilight of the Thunder God
6. Protest the Hero- Fortress
7. This Will Destroy You- This Will Destroy You
8. Cynic- Traced in Air
9. Lemuria- Get Better
10. Bigelf- Cheat the Gallows

You fail more and more in my eyes with each passing year.

I think Cynic are going to move much higher by January 1, if that helps...

Which I know it doesn't .

Good record. I haven't listened to it enough for it to make my top 10, but it's solid.

I would give them the benefit of the doubt, but I just went and listened to them on Youtube and it was nu-metal.

So...pick your poison, I guess.

nice



It didn't help the fact that they, a nu-metal/metalcore (to me) band, were opening for Napalm Death. Maybe that factored into it.

Same reason I really didn't like Unearth: they were opening for Slayer!
