Death Magnetic - Metallica

Death Magnetic - Metallica

A Great Flash Back To Their Best Early Decade! I Just Can Call It An Album Full of Masterpieces!

loved every song on there

ANGELWARHEAD

Indestructible - Disturbed
2Indestructible - Disturbed

I am a diehard Metallica fan, but Indestructible tops Death Magnetic by a long road. It has more and better riffs and solos as well as equivalent, if not better, singing and lyricism. Disturbed is the winner this year.

Indestructible and Scream Aim Fire are not only the two best albums of 2008, they are the best albums of all freaking time.

I was pleased to see them so high on the list.

Revelation - Journey
5Revelation - Journey
Appeal to Reason - Rise Against
6Appeal to Reason - Rise Against

One of the only punk rock bands that's still making good and non-commercial music, this album proves it, it proves there's still good punk-rock music, and songs like re-education, from heads unworthy or audience of one make the album definetely deserve to be in the top10, if not top5.

In Rainbows - Radiohead
7In Rainbows - Radiohead
3 Doors Down - 3 Doors Down
83 Doors Down - 3 Doors Down

This album looks great, because there is my best 3 Doors Down song, It's not my time.

21Saints of Los Angeles - Motley Crue
22Accelerate - R.E.M
23Only by the Night - Kings of Leon
24Awake - Dream Theater

the last album to feature keyboardist/lyricist kevin moore. his song writing skills are unparalleled. you can't call yourself a metal fan if you haven't listened to this album.

25The Crucible of Man - Iced Earth
26Consoler Of The Lonely - The Raconteurs
27The Slip - Nine Inch Nails
28Uroboros - Dir En Grey

Incredible album. The vocals are top notch from some extremely emotional songs to the deepest and highest growls/ screams. Lyrically it wasn't; for me their best for Kyo's standards but then again he is the best lyricist I know. Check it Out!

30Simple Plan - Simple Plan
31Saturday Nights & Sunday Mornings - Counting Crows
32When Angels & Serpents Dance - P.O.D.
