nah his vocals are worse I reckon than ever before, but the music saves the album, its nothing amazingly special but it really works and has a nice sound to it.

i prefer his vocals that way tbh, yes the music is the winner here, i think its a mixture of melo-death and nu metal, there are some great songs on the album, hardly any fillers at all :D

I was tring to think of the best of 2008 and kept coming up with the same problem.
I’m having the worst time thinking of something new I actually bought this year…Most stuff that comes to mind are re-issues. Especially re-issues on vinyl.
I guess Weezer’s Red Album was this year from reading everyone elses posts…but I wasn’t that crazy about it.
The only others I can think of were
Pennywise - Reason to Believe
Metallica - Death Magnetic
In both these cases I was excited because they were better than their last few releases…but when compared to earlier stuff, they’re really only average.
The rest of my list can be labeled “New releases from bands I like, not bad but nothing memorable, good or bad”
Nada Surf - Lucky
Mogwai - The Hawk is Howling
Death Cab for Cutie - Narrow Stairs
I think there was a new Millencolin in there as well.
After that I’m completely blank.
