Welcome to our annual look at what we’ll spend our bandwith on in the year ahead. We did something like this last year, but the exercise was radically different this time; it’s amazing to look back and see how easy it was just to throw the list together off-the-cuff (just pick your favorite band and it seemed they had already announced an LP for ’07). Also, it’s pretty amazing to note how many of those LPs had already leaked before the new year. Are labels are getting a little smarter about plugging some of those leaks? Maybe, possibly, hopefully, hopefully not, etc.
Anyway, 2008′s shaping up to be a little different, and not just in terms of our collective OiNKlessness. As of now, the year doesn’t have nearly the same blockbuster appeal (no new Arcade Fire, Modest Mouse, Shins, Bloc Party, Spoon, LCD Soundsystem, Interpol, et al to get everyone frothy — oh, but did you hear there is a new Radiohead album in stores on January 1st!). Still, there’s plenty of promise there if you look for it. We’ve already seen some bright spots, and haven’t got around to blogging about some others (the new Beach House and Pattern Is Movement are on heavy rotation) … and we wanted to make next year nice and easy on you. So after lots of research about the year ahead, we’ve learned a few things: there’s a new Animal Collective EP out this April, Menomena’s promising another full-length for ’08, and when you’re making a list as big as the one after the jump, your best friends go by the names Cut and Paste.

And after all that, we’re sure we missed something. (Don’t say Chinese Democracy; we left that off the list out of respect to you, out of respect for us, and out of respect for the concept and integrity of the act of listmaking in general). We’re figuring you’ll tell us anyway, so we won’t even ask. Instead: let’s put this thread to some concerted, declarative use, and make it a call to “what we’re most psyched for in ’08.” And … go.

That Kravitz album title…awe-inspiring
not sure if I missed it in your list…
but My Morning Jacket are finishing up their new album and it’s rumored for a early 08 release…
i just knew i’d somehow leave off something huge like that. awesome. adding now, thanks justin!
Final Fantasy’s Heartland, summer at the earliest. Los Campesinos!’ Hold On Now, Youngster… has a UK release of 18th February, the Futureheads reappear in March, Portishead in April, and what about the promised My Bloody Valentine material?
Isn’t Wolf Parade due sometime next year?
I’m looking forward to Animal Collective and Flight of the Conchords.
CARTER 3! CARTER 3!
Perhaps only one or two people will care about this, but Vancouver band Hinterland has a new album called Pan Pan Medico coming out Feb. 19 on Submerged Records.
I think Khonnor will release a new LP through Type. Should be really good.
Bauhaus (Go Away White) out on March 4!
Who cares about anything not having to do with Dan B.
Steve Aoki? Really?
Wolf Parade’s a little iffy, since they still need to get in the studio. They’ve been playing new stuff live though, and it sounds good.
I think the Verve will release in 2008.
Does the Radiohead release on the 1st qualify it for “Best of” 2008 lists as well?
Why is 50 Cent releasing an album in March when he just released one? I’m really looking forward to Coldplay and The Fray though.
Ryan Adams is usually good for a couple of releases :)
I have a feeling 08 is going to be the Avalanches year.
Autolux’s new record is due early ’08. its on their myspace blog.
Sam Amidon’s “All Is Well,” will be released in February on Bedroom Community. Nico Muhly is producing. If you aren’t familiar with him, he plays on the Doveman albums. I’m excited about this release, based on this preview on Youtube
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LKySLEjBZ5E
REM and Morissey will have albums in 08 as well.
Anyone know if TV on the Radio are likely to put out a new album? I have no clue, and a quick Google didn’t tell me, but the timing seems right?
Asking For Flowers – Kathleen Edwards. March 4th.
April 8th, Nick Cave :D
and then I’ll have to wait till October to get my next fill of of Montreal.
Those are what I am happy about this year. I wish Leonard Cohen was on the list as well though.
death cab for cutie’s due for one in may, according to your article from a couple of days ago
miles kurosky’s solo record is rumored to be almost ready, as well.
asking for flowers – kathleen edwards. march 4th. riao!

Apollo Sunshine
Ours (finally)
Frequency Fall

You guys just mentioned the DBTs new release a couple of days ago, but I didn’t see it on the list.
Drive-By Truckers : Brighter Than Creation’s Dark (1-22-08)
Bauhaus!! Can’t wait for them to show all the baby goths who’s boss!
thanks all, keep ‘em coming, we’ll keep updating so it can be nice and masterlist-y.
COLIN MELOY YOU GUYS
I’M FUCKING STOKED OUT OF ME FACE
flight of the concords first full length is due april 22 according to billboard. Can’t wait!
http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/news/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1003685147
new constantines is out early april, gonna be amazing…
The Wrens were supposed/rumored to have a new album out in ’07, but didn’t, right? I really hope that’ll be out in 2008.
omg ace of base! amazing.
the jeffrey lewis is already out according to my itunes.
btw the new hot chip album is all kinds of amazing.
wasn’t the hold steady looking to release something in 08?
PWRFL Power’s album is coming out March 3rd, by the way.
ooo. nada surf. and verve. wow. cool.
Ryan Adams boxset?
New Rancid album?
Death Cab For Cutie in May?!?!?!
plus of Montreal, Candace Weapon, Hot Chip and Louis XIV.
Should be a good year.
Lookout Mountain, Lookout Sea! The Silver Jews
MARCH. Bros!
WOW, awesome list, way to go Stereogum.
March 11 could be a really really interesting release date. B-52s, Bryan Adams, Destroyer, The Kills and Ashlee Simpson on the same day!?!?!?
BEACH HOUSE FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
…Steve Aoki..yeah that’s going to be the hit of the year. Yay for new Bob Mould solo though
Honestly, I’m not too excited about anything. We’ll see when ’08 rolls around though.
New Panic at the Disco… WHY GOD, WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO ME.
New Metric is dropping sometime in 2008 I think.
we are scientists! march(?)
Hasn’t Basia Bulat’s album been out since April? Cause I’ve definitely been listening to it for a while… what’s up?
I see new Death Cab, but when is there supposed to be new Postal Service? I could’ve sworn that second album was “being recorded” way back in Feb. 2007, and yet I’ve heard approximately 0 about it since then (aside from the wildly false rumor that there’d be a surprise release on Christmas). Will there ever be a new Postal Service album, and if so, when?
“who killed amanda palmer” by amanda palmer!
Excited for:
GIRL TALK
Vampire Weekend
Los Campesinos!
Be Your Own Pet
Colin Meloy
MAN MAN

Weezer

I swear I didn’t think my taste was so mainstream.
wolf parade is due in june…so says subpop
Hasn’t there been some news of a new Antony & The Johnsons album? That would probably make my year…wouldn’t hurt if there were a few more uppers on there, either. Another Fistful of Love would rock my socks.
Well then. I’ll be picking up Hot Chip, Thao Nguyen, Shearwater aaaannd … fuckin … I guess that’s it!
Not a big start to the year.
Interesting to compare with this year’s first months that really included released from major indie artists.
Wolf Parade will be among the most interesting releases around summer (if that will indeed be the release). And Mimas as well
Did Stereogum just stealth-announce a Colin Meloy solo record?
Nah, Colin announced it hisself during the last solo tour. That’s why there was a no taping thing going on. Surprised it’s taking this long!
There’s a new Hold Steady studio record due in the first half of the year. There may also be a live album, but it’s not confirmed.
The new Crocodile EP is due in January.
I wouldn’t hold your breath on another Blur album. It sounds like relations amongst the band have decayed yet again, with Albarn going so far as to insist that the only reason Graham wants back in the band now is because his solo career is faltering and he wants the money. This has caused a rift between Damon and the other three, and it seems less and less likely they will work together again, but certainly not in the near future.
new dEUS in March..
also, the Silver Mt. Zion record has a title now – 13 Blues for Thirteen Moons
the new magnetic fields is amazing!
I’m crossing my fingers for a new Buster Poindexter album. It’s been way too fucking long! It’d be great if Slint went into the studio, as well.
Wolf parade TBA this year and Portishead too
SUPERGRASS!!!! in March
and
BLACK CROWES!!! also in March
fuck yeah!
Still missing Silver Jews, Constantines and Islands
No Age’s Sub Pop debut!
I think The Cure has one coming in 2008 as well. Possibly a double album.
Also remasters of Wish, Mixed Up, and Disintegration. I’m curious to see how Wish turns out. That album always sounded veiled and fuzzy to me, but I hope they don’t crank up the compression and loudness and kill any dynamics.
SSLYBY in march????
The Notwist have already finished recording and are supposedly mixing their latest LP right now, preparing for release sometime around April ’08. That oughtta be huge.
Swan Lake will be recording #2 in February.
Kate Nash is only out in America in January? I cannot wait until album of the year lists next year so I can be a sarcastic arsehole about that in every fucking thread.
Not that Kate Nash will be on any lists.
presidents of the united states of america – these are the good times people
march14
there should be around 2 or 3 releases involving Jack White. Scott Weiland has another solo album on the way, and of course, Ryan Adams should put out about 5 or 6.
Keep the additions coming, I’ll add ‘em in! Thanks.
Please add This Will Destroy You to the list. Their S/T LP comes out 1/29 but you can order it now and you’ll get it before the street date. This album is fucking amazing…I think these guys are gonna become a little more recognized this year.
The Vines have a new album in 08. should be out witin the first half of the year.
Weezer has a new album? where’d this come from? i thought they split?
DS48 beat me to it but 3/11 is going to be damn near apocalyptic with The B-52′s, Bryan Adams, Panic at the Disco AND ASHLEE SIMPSON!
But seriously, new Sun Kil Moon? SWOON!
2/19 – debut solo album from Gary Louris (The Jayhawks) entitled Vagabonds. Produced by Chris Robinson (Black Crowes).
No mention of the Walkmen.
i’m excited for the ra ra riot full length!
Radiohead “In Rainbows” album – the best album of the year! I like it!
I heard that Kim Deal is putting together a new Breeders album. Anyone else hear that?
Subtle – ExitingArm due in May
The third and final album in their Hero trilogy. I think it will be the most openly loved of all their amazing albums. I have high hopes of it cracking the top ten lists at the end of the year.
james anthony, you totally just heard that on vh1′s 100 greatest songs of the 90s.
There’s a new Hold Steady studio record due in the first half of the year. There may also be a live album, but it’s not confirmed.
WHAT
The Verve, Death Cab…, Sia, Cat Power, Love is All, A Weather, The Kills, BYOP, Nadasurf, The Kooks, The Lemonheads, Supergrass, The Roots, Jim Noir, Of Montreal, Amanda Palmer, The Cure, Menomena, Blind Melon, DPT…
=)
Tapes ‘n Tapes have an album out 2008. Great band.
Ellen Allien: ‘Sol” in summer 08
Does anyone know when Grand Ole Party is suppose to release their LP?
Alex: The basia record was out in the UK and Europe in May, but is only coming out in the states next year. finally!

http://www.myspace.com/yourvegas
Broadcast, Autolux, Stereolab…all confirmed for 2008.
i’ll have a new one out.
yes! new lenny kravitz! i’m pissing my pants in excitement!
Fatal Film “Thrill’r” in February.
My personal favorite band, Grand Buffet will be dropping a new album this year. in fact its already mastered and was supposed to come out this year. if you dont know who grand Buffet is, they an act out of pittsburgh PA and have collaborated with musical acts such as Girltalk and Gil Mantera’s Party Dream. and are it seems like they are almost always opening for Of Montreal. anyone I ever play them for falls in love with them
No Jesus and Mary Chain? Some indie website.
