Best Album So Far This Year

[Twinkle Toes]

I'm gonna kick it off with my 08 fave rave: Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - Dig Lazarus Dig. Love it

I'm not going to pronounce it great as I've not bought it yet, but I am very much looking forward to getting to the shops at the weekend for the Last Shadow Puppets album.

Its Alex Turner's (Artic Monkeys) side project. I got the single last week and its quality.

Not the best albumn by a long shot but I bought the Kooks new effort over the weekend and it's pap.

I'm with HKFC on this one. Last Shadow Puppets will be album of the year by a country mile. The bits and bobs I've heard off it sound great, and the single is the first thing I've heard in years (maybe a slight overstatement) that on first radio play made me go "Wow!" (not the biggest Arctic Monkeys fan either btw)

Glasvegas will be second...

 

[Fourteenth Eye]

Ive just got the My Federation album 'Dont wanna die' which is ace

Go forth & buy it people. Local is best

Billy Bragg

 

[Skint Gull]

Leonna Lewis - Spirit

Says the main who claims to not own it!

By the way i really do hope that you're on a wind up by suggesting that tripe

 

[seagurn]

Doppleganger- by 'The Grid'

well worth checking out as Mr Ball and Mr Norris seem to be back to thier best after a ten year break.

 

[dannyboy]

innersound - antisocial

 

[Nibble]

Richard HAwley - Lady's Bridge.

May have come out in 2007 but I bought it this year. Love it.

 

[Don Tmatter]

'Brain Thrust Mastery' - We Are Scientists
Not as good as their last/debut, but a decent follow up.
Not heard Elbow's all the way through yet but what i have heard is very impressive.
Anyone else recommend the Last Shadow Puppet's one, the single they put out sounded very 60's(a good thing IMO)

Neon Neon so far but Foals is good and I'm looking forward to Last of the Shadow Puppets...the stuff I have heard so far is excellent.
