Fiery Furnces EP
(i think it’s gonna be better than either of the full-lenghts)
SA-RA Creative Partners
(some real futuristic soul for you whiteboys!)
There is the very likely possibility of some new New Order dropping in the spring, as well. And a live Morrissey release (cd and dvd).
Fo sho.
…Trail of Dead and M83 in January. And I second the Fiery Furnaces.
that Sa-Ra has been one of my favoritest things for the past few months. soooo farging amazing.
i’m rather excited about bloc party. by march do you mean its us release date?
oh, and shar jackson of course.
The Decemberists’ Picaresque will MARCH in like a lion… on March 22 to be exact.
MOTLEY CRUE!!!!!!!
2005 will be a time to break out the Jordache, wax the T-Bird and go on a Bud Ice Bender.
That and the 2 new Outkast discs rumored to be coming out.
Delta 5 re-issue on Kill Rock Stars!
new Spoon
new Decemberists
new Broken Social Scene
new Malkmus

Carl Newman’s NP’s should have the next one finished by March. Hooray.
mars volta, trail of dead, emiliana torrini, feeder…

new IDLEWILD in march. let’s hope they hit SXSW to kick off the tour.
sage francis – a healthy distrust (february 8)
johnny cash – the man, his world, his music dvd (march 8th)
sublime tribute album – summer 2005
inevitable arcade fire ep re-release
and new order in feb/mar
Tori Amos: The Beekeeper ( Feb )
AM I THE ONLY PERSON WHO IS EXCITED ABOUT PARIS HILTON’S POP MUSICAL DEBUT? ARE YOU ALL FOOLS?
Have you no SOULS?
Speaking of the above-mentioned Carl Newman and his merry band, Neko Case should have her new album in the Spring. ‘Blacklisted’ was jaw-dropping, and ‘The Tigers Have Spoken’ was the best live CD to feature only two previously heard tunes.
That Sage Francis is killer. M83… less so.
The Chemical Brothers need to make this a solid album. The last LP was terrible (except for “Star Guitar”), and they are getting real irrelevant, real fast.
the first US mommy and daddy EP! they are calling “fighting style killer panda” and it’s out feb 15th!
new new porn? this year? for serious?
wow. kick ass.
The new Beck.
The new Archer Prewitt is pretty smooth (in a good way).
The new Crooked Fingers is much less so.

I second New Order and Bloc Party (but, @times, can you even tell the difference?)
My tip: Gruff Rhys-Yr Atal Genhedlaeth. Welsh language solo album by a Super Furry Animal, hell yes.
Oh and Caribou (formally Manitoba) – The Milk of Human Kindness
Not the new Oasis.
Jason Isbell from Drive-By Truckers (Solo) sometime next spring.
What about Ted Nugent!!!! after U2 can the motor city madman be far behind??? rumour mill – maybe Ted can take Dimebags place in Damageplan? Hopefully he will have a hunting accident before that happens..
The Fiona Apple finally coming to us ?
New Decemberists March 22nd…it’s awesome. Two tracks from it are on my blog today…
De Novo Dalh – Cats & Kittens – Theory 8
The Sugarplastic – Will – Tallboy Records
Ash – Meltdown – Record Collection
The new BECK album in February (reportedly). That’s gonna be hot.
Also the Fiery Furnaces, yea.
The new Ladytron and Junior Senior albums..
Ugh, the new Sage Francis is pretty boring comparitively. Thankfully, for him, “Slow Down, Gandhi” leaked to the internet first. He needs the obligatory “good single” to leak in order to trick people (okay, to trick me) into buying that garbage.
Anyway…isn’t Devendra Banhart releasing an EP or something in February? If so, I look forward to that. My folk Jesus does little wrong in my eyes.
the new mars volta record sucks…
The Ash record’s been out for a while in the UK, I love it. Having heard advances of the new Bright Eyes and …And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead, I’ll say I really enjoyed one and thought the other was just blah. Try and guess which is which!
Hey Yale Bloor: awesome screenname. Anyone else catch the HST reference?
I’m excited for everything.
Someone hooked me up with the UK edition of the Ash and it’s a good listen. The US edition will course have bonus tracks and a dvd and they will be touring in the spring.
and because i can’t type it should be De Dovo Dahl
Boards of Canada .
Anyone heard any rumours? I hope its released sometime in 2005.
The Raveonettes’ new one is coming out early next year. I’m stoked and a half.
garbage – bleed like me
esthero – we r in need of a musical revolution ep / wikkid lil grrls
nikka costa – cantneverdidnothin
I wholeheartedly third the stoke for the new Beck album. Seriously, seriously so excited. Seriously.
The Frames – Burn the Maps in Feb on Anti
Airborn Audio ( M Sayyid + High Priest formerly of Anti Pop Consortium) debut album comes out Feb 22nd on Ninja Tune, looking forward to that as well as M.I.A., new Diplo, and Spoon
i heard the new chemical brothers. do not fret my pets, it’s very solid. it’s actually amazing.
The Bloc Party album has already leaked and is to be found on Soulseek… It’s really, really good !!!
Grizzly Bear tour, new CD….they do it for me like no other
STEPHEN MALKMUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
30 Seconds to Mars
Burn The Maps has been out since Sept in the UK, it’s good, but far from the Frames best album. i was surprised when The Onion said it was one of their early contenders for 05. i think i had it at like 25 or 26 on my ’04 list.
but if it gets more people turned onto the Frames, then so be it. just hope they check out their best stuff then, Dance The Devil, then For The Birds & Fitzcarraldo, all of which are better than Maps.
Thrice, Avenged Sevenfold, and the Distillers!
has nobody mentioned eisley? out in feb. my #1 anticipation of ’05.
i’m anticipating the things i’ve yet to even hear of.
this year brought me the decemberists and arcade fire. i was late to the party on the decemberists, admittedly, but did any of you even hear about the arcade fire before this year?
i want the new buzz. that’s what i want for the zero-nickel.
COLDPLAY.
what is wrong with you people?
New Beck album yay! Hmmm…I saw the Fiery Furnaces at the Siren Festival this summer and I wasn’t impressed. Maybe they sound better in the studio? Crossin’ my fingers.
For the vinyl fetishists …
Arcade Fire 12″ is out in Jan too!
Looking forward to a long player from The Kaiser Chiefs.
April – Garbage “Bleed Like Me”
FINALLY!!!!
the new Mars Volta (which is ridiculously good- a prog rock masterpiece)
Roots Manuva
new Sleater-Kinney out sometime in the spring, i think.
The Information – Mistakes We Knew We Were Making
coming out late January/early February … finally!
John Vanderslice – sometime in the summer.
Nine Inch Nails
Some of the new releases you guys mentioned are available (full album) on some of the bittorrent sites. I have the new ones from the following:
Bloc Party – new album is very good, not much surprise based on their impressive EPs and singles)
Decemberists – great stuff other than a couple uninspired tracks, last song on the album is really cool)
Mars Volta – not so great (note: the recording quality of the files going around the internet are pretty low, but oh well, good enough to recognize that the music is just “eh”)
Sage Francis – not bad, not great either
Antipop Consortium is now;
The Mixtape is available at http://www.airbornaudio.net
I just got Sage Francis’s Autograph tonight in Denver and on the side he wrote HST RIP what does that mean?????
