METAL 2008 - OFFICIAL THREAD

It's not confirmed yet..the bands without dates aren't confirmed releases


Steve Knopper of RollingStone.com reports that the major record labels have prepared a superstar-packed holiday shopping season, with U2, Beyoncé, Dr. Dre, Metallica, AC/DC, Jay-Z and top American Idol stars dropping albums through the end of 2008, label sources say.

Even Guns N' Roses' Chinese Democracy has a chance: A source tells Rolling Stone that a November release date has been selected in case the band decides to put it out.

And apparently, it's gonna be retail exclusive to either Wal-Mart or Best Buy...
 
I don't want to be ignorant towards all the great new albums that have come out and continue to come out this year, but I think Abigail Williams' In The Shadow Of A Thousand Suns, will be hands down the killer album of 2008
