best indie albums 2008
Wow, we made it to volume No. 15 in the Best Indie Rock Songs of 2008. No matter what, it'll never be a full sampling of what's out there. A few months ago we said that we were a bit disappointed by the indie releases of 2008 compared to 2007.
In a way that's still true, but the point is 2008 is turning out to be another stellar year for new indie rock albums and artists (or at least artists that somehow got under our radar in previous years).
Albums of 2008 that rise in the top echelon of our playlists include The Walkmen's You & Me (absolutely freaking amazing), The Little Ones' Morning Tide, White Denim's Workout Holiday, TV on the Radio's Dear Science and Plants and Animals Parc Avenue.
"In The New Year" by The Walkmen from You & Me
"Morning Tide" by The Little Ones from Morning Tide
"Golden Age" by TV on the Radio from Dear Science
"Sitting" by White Denim from Workout Holiday
"New Kind of Love" by Plants and Animals from Parc Avenue
Well, the holidays are upon us and folks at the cafe are busy with festivities and family and everything else that clobbers us during this time of year. This, Vol. 15, of the Best Indie Rock Songs of 2008 playlist series, may just be the last for this topic.
But check back in case we decide to belt out a couple more of these lists. If you've missed any of the previous playlists, check out the series while all the songs are still available for sampling. And if you really like something buy it as a gift for someone special or just for yourself (you're special too!).
Peace on earth (better chance once the Bush regime finally leaves) and happy holidays everyone.
Cannot resist: "Hey Bush, we've got shoes for you."

Please stick to the music and leave political comments to those who know what they're talking about.
Hey Dana, I think it's fine what they wrote. They posted your comment; giving you the respect to say what you think. And it's only a fact that George W. Bush has been a disaster for this country and the world.
Yea - leave politics who know what they're talking about, like me.
Bush administration was like a pus-oozing green infection on the neck of the US.
Thanks.
