Proprio non sembra esserci coincidenza di vedute tra i vari magazine musicali, quest'anno, su quale sia stato il miglior disco del 2008.
E' appena stata resa nota la Top 50 2008 dei critici del settimanale inglese New Musical Express (NME): qui "Dear Science" dei Tv On The Radio (scelto da Rolling Stone) non va oltre il n.2, "Fleet Foxes" dei Fleet Foxes (preferito da Mojo) al n. 13, "Third" dei Portishead (trionfatore della poll di Uncut) al n. 25, e i Coldplay sono solo al n.31.
Trionfa il duo newyorkese MGMT, che oltre al n.1 dell'album d'esordio "Oracular Spectacular", fa piazza pulita anche nella classifica dei migliori brani dell'anno, con "Kids" al n.1, "Time To Pretend" al n.4 e "Electric Feel" al n.5. Una straordinaria doppietta che, come sottolineato dai giornalisti dell'NME, si è verificata solo pochissime volte in precedenza.
