What do you think about Violet Hill?
It's their best song since 2002. If the rest of the album is this good, it'll be their best album.

New/relatively unkonwn artists and bands?
They're not new, but they're relatively unknown. The Pineapple Thief are a prog/indie rock band from the UK, and they're excellent. They have 6 studio albums out, and their seventh studio album is coming out in less than a month. If you like bands like The Smashing Pumpkins, U2, and Radiohead, you have to check these guys out. Here's their myspace - http://www.myspace.com/thepineapplethief

Prog lovers unite
I love Progressive rock music. :) I mostly like the classic bands, like Genesis, ELP, Electric Light Orchestra, Kansas, King Crimson, Yes, Gentle Giant, Nektar, Rush, etc, although I do enjoy some of the current prog bands (like Tool, Dream Theater, Opeth, The Mars Volta, Porcupine Tree, Spock's Beard, Marillion, Glass Hammer, The Flower Kings, etc.) I wish Genesis would get back together and put out a new album. That would be sweet.

Britney Spears
^^ Agreed, he/she/it is really annoying. Back on topic: I agree with the court. Britney needs to get her s**t together.

Music Magazines
I used to read Rolling Stone, but it's gone so far downhill that I wouldn't waste my money on it anymore. Other than that, I dunno.

Will there be a leak?
I also think it's more likely that the album will leak, but the single will not. After all, it comes out in less than 24 hours, there's no reason to leak it this late.

Radiohead
I can see what you mean, but that's why I like it. It's simple and catchy, and has a great melody.

New Coldplay Single To Get World Premiere On BBC6 Music, 29th April (Before Noon)
Me too. Or I hope it's officially released on Itunes or something. I hope the whole album doesn't leak before it's released, though. I hate it when that happens, it's so tempting to spoil everything and download the whole thing.

Radiohead
I'm the opposite, I loved House Of Cards at first listen, and I still love it. The only song that didn't grab me at first was "All I Need" (and it's still my least favorite song on IR.)

Your album collections
I own at least 500 albums in cd form, 913 albums (according to my Itunes folder) in mp3 form, and I don't know how many in vinyl form. All my cds have been ripped to my Itunes library. ^^ The Goo Goo Dolls are pretty good, especially their early albums. I didn't care much for their last album.
