Well, what albums are you lovely people looking forward to this year?
For me there's new releases by the wonderful Sonic Youth, Bjork, Bad Religion, And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead all scheduled for this summer.
Trent Reznor is once again teaching/testing patience by constantly changing his mind about when to release the new Nine Inch Nails album (June, July, next January...). System Of A Down are working on new material which is reportedly going to shock everyone by being "an amazing departure from previous work"... but every band says that don't they?
Unpronounceable US dance-punk collective !!! are releasing their second album 'Louden Up Now' in june, which I have heard the leak online and can say it's very funky and booty-shake-inducing.
The fantastic art-punk legends Mission Of Burma return with their first album in 22 years, and their second overall (productive eh?) titled OnOffOn which has also leaked onto the internet and is very very good. How can a band who haven't been together for 22 years be so forward thinking?
And for the rap fans out there this summer sees the release of the Beastie Boys politically-charged, George-Bush-baiting 6th album featuring such fantastic rhymes as "Hey, could you please pass me the peas? And let me get a tissue if you think you're gonna sneeze".... wow.
For all punk fans out there the new Descendents album is brilliant. Enough said.
Anything else?
