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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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
