Top 10 Albums of 2008 - Part IV

#1 - The Silver Cord by The Classic Crime



For the few of you who were waiting for it, here it is. Number one. The Silver Cord. The Classic Crime. That's my pick for the best album of 2008. The Classic Crime would probably have to be the most improved band over the past year, and they started off pretty good anyways. But, The Silver Cord took their music to a new level. The songs have found a new energy, the guitar riffs are more intricate and exciting, the vocals are more passionate and emotional, the beats are more driven and intense, the fast is faster, the heavy is heavier, the everything is better. It's not just good guitar solos, great vocals, catchy melodies, well designed song structure, or deep lyrics. It's all of those, and on just about every single song. So if you're looking for something to do with those itunes giftcards or extra cash you have from Christmas, get The Silver Cord. It's worth it. (Unless you would rather give the money to a church, charity, someone in need, or another noble cause. That's way more worth it.)
