IMO best commercial rock album of 08 == VLV

best rock album == Thrice's The Alchemy Index:Vol 3 & 4(Air and Earth)

if u don't believe me try getting The Alchemy Index Vol. 1,2,3 & 4 and then comment.

although there were other deserving candidates like pg.lost,bon iver,etc.

Coldplay is Alternate Rock(Pop-ish rock)

Best Rock album should be Black Ice by AC/DC

Wikipedia says:-
"The album sold over 500,000 copies in 10 days since its release, beating the first week UK sales of Coldplay's third album, X&Y" for Viva La Vida

and

"On October 28, Black Ice debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200 album chart, selling over 784,000 copies in its first week of release" for Black Ice
