My top six Rock/Metal albums of 2008
For some reason, I just couldn't make it to a Top Ten. WTF...?!
Anyway, here we go!
Avantasia - The Scarecrow
"The scarecrow" is one of the best songs Tobi ever wrote, maybe even beating "Sign of the cross". Otherwise - great story, tons of awesome tracks and cool guest singers. That's exactly what everyone wants from an Avantasia release, and we didn't get disappointed <3
Sabaton - The Art of War
Simply stunning. I have no idea how they manage to keep getting ebtter and better with each goddamned CD, but somehow, they do. Anthem-like Power Metal and just one topic when it comes to lyrics. But hey - Who cares about that anway? *lol*
Edguy - Tinnitus Sanctus
I... still don't really know what to think of this one. It's got some strong songs, but several other tracks almost bored me to death. I know I said I wasn't gonna join the league of people who want Tobi and his gang to do anthter "Hellfire Club", but recently, I've nearly been chaning my mind... *sigh*
DragonForce - Ultra Beatdown
You either like them or you don't. I mainly listen to them because of their cheesy and unique style and because their music is just fast, silly fun. Definitive hghtlight of the CD: "Strike of the ninja" =)
Lordi - Deadache
Not quite as good as "The Arockalypse", but I still found myself getting quite addicted to it fairly quickly. And their lyrics are still amusing as hell and never fail to entertain me ^_^
Revolution Renaissance - New Era
Yeah, yeah I know. Tolkki has been writing the same somgs for twenty-five years. I still like it, so there ;P And it's got Tobi and Michi guesting, so stop complaining *lol* BTW, the next RR album called "Age of Aquarius" seems to be scheduled for a March 9, 2009 release. Neat!
