Favorite albums of 2008?

I'm guessing he's also including his screenwriting.

So those two screenplays are better than his entire discography?

That's absolutely absurd.

He also wrote a really good novel. Still silly, though.

Not silly. Very truthful. The Proposition and Ghosts... of the Civil Dead remain his best artistic creations. Haven't read his novel.

Really, other than the Birthday Party and really early NCatBS (particularily From Her to Eternity), I've never really liked Cave the musician much. Grinderman was particularily awful.

For what it's worth, Dig! Lazurus, Dig! is the only 2008 album I've heard (I really just don't like today's music by and large), and it was 7/10 good.

Oh, and I totally did not know that Byrne released a new album. I'll definetly check that out.

It's as good as anything Byrne and Eno have ever done. An instant masterpiece, IMO.
