Oh, well. Let's give it a try.
Top 5 albums from the first half of 2008
1.) Opeth - Watershed (released 5/19/08)
2.)  Portishead - Third (released 4/28/08)
3.)  A Tribe Called Quest - The Best of A Tribe Called Quest (released 4/1/08)
4.)  Michael Jackson - Thriller (25th Anniversary Edition) (released 2/8/08)
5.)  Dream Theater - Greatest Hit (..And 21 Other Pretty Cool Songs) (released 3/29/08)
Meh.  It says something when a.) I had to struggle to think of anything to put on the list and b.) when I finally did think of something, 3 out of 5 were compilation albums or re-releases of good material that came back out in the 80's.
The record industry needs to wake up.

I love the Portishead album. It was great to seem them return to the scene.
You know, I have never checked out Dream Theater, but I keep hearing so much about them. Okay, I'm going to suck it up and give 'em a listen. I greatest hits album should be a good place to start.
