: top 50 del 2008

Pues sí. Estas fókin fechas son en las que sobre todo se exacerban dos cosas: el consumismo salvaje y la listamanía. Así es que para no faltar a la tradición, aquí les dejo las listas de las revistas británicas Uncut y Mojo. Metaleros del mundo, no os preocupéis: estas listas gregarias  no son para nosotros.
