^ Yeah, its my favourite album of the year so far.

:)

 

I hope our local band (Elvis Jackson) will release their cd this year. But i doubt they will because they're in the studio atm. We (local scouts) wanted to use them for an event we're preparing, but they couldn't make it. Gah!

 

And I also hope that Coldplay's LP4 will be okay. :D

The Kooks have their new album up on their myspace. Just finished listening. Sounds good.

 

 

I just bought Moby's "Last Night" I liked it so much. His best in a long time. :dance:

 

And don't forget Gnarls Barkley!

Tokyo Police Club's Elephant Shell is my favorite so far.

The Young Knives Superabundance is my fav so far, but it's still early days. Viva La Vida and The Boxer Rebellion album are going to be great.

Oasis - LP7

Coldplay - LP4

Travis - LP6

311 - LP8

^ Perhaps you have some special time machine we don't have?

 

I'm saying albums worth hearing i.e. you have already listened to them.

is there any debate that these will be quality albums? i think not.

Coldplay - LP4

Keane - LP3

Sarah Blasko - LP3

Travis - LP6

Youth Group and The Living End are also releasing new albums.

Didn't even know about half of those! ;)

 

If it's looking into the future we're doing then

 

Coldplay - Viva la Vida or Death and all His Friends

The Boxer Rebellion - LP2

The Vines - LP4

Franz Ferdinand - LP3

Youth Group and The Living End are Australian bands - Living End are more worldly famous..but Youth Group supported Coldplay and you'd probably know them for the song 'Forever Young'. Sarah Blasko is also Australian.

Oh no I've heard of all of them very well, I own a lot of thier stuff and it's very good. I just didn't realise they had new albums coming out this year. ;)

Travis - Ode to J.Smith :P

Elbow - The Seldom Seen Kid

Drive-By Truckers - Brighter Than Creation's Dark

Chris Drifford - The Last Temptation of Chris

WAS - Brain Trust Mastery

British Sea Power's album

 

For a start

Yes there is debate. :rolleyes:

 

Who is 311?

311 is a rock/reggae/rap band that is based in L.A. They have a huge following in the United States, and a rather large intl. following. I am surprised you don't know them, though I am sure you would be familiar with their songs. For instance, Come Original...

 

 

 

**EDIT: I have started a 311 thread in Other Multimedia. I have uploaded Come Original there. This is one of their best songs - so much ENERGY and MELODY**

the last of alicia keys:)

- R.E.M. - Accelerate

 

I think it's a great album, although it's a bit short...

 

- The Kooks - Konk

 

Came out last Friday in Germany and I love it! Perhaps not as good as Inside In/Inside Out, but especially the first songs are amazing!

And don't forget Gnarls Barkley!

 

i don't really know gnarls barkley but he put on a FANTASTIC performance on snl last night

Oracular Spectacular - MGMT

It was released digitally in October 07, but the CD came out in January 08 - it's excellent, go buy it!

 

Future album releases:

I am hoping the new Green Day album is going to be released this year and that it is going to kick arse. BJ Armstrong said he's been writing a lot of it on piano and that it will reflect the fact that he is feeling 'middle-aged'.

- The Kooks - Konk

 

Isn't that the album where I have yet to seen a reviewer giving it more than 4 out of 10?

 

Where the man from the Mail on Sunday who is normally star happy gave the album a stone dead 0 out of 5 and said it was the worst album he has listened to for a couple years?
