Guest J0bber Posted February 25, 2006 Report Posted February 25, 2006 Albums I'm looking forward to in 2006: Sepultura - Dante XXI (March 12th) Rob Zombie- Educated Horses (March 28th) Ministry - Rio Grande Blood (May 2nd) (HED) pe- Back 2 Base X (May 16th)
Gary Floyd Posted February 25, 2006 Report Posted February 25, 2006 I'm looking forward to: Ministry-Rio Grande Blood Current 93-Black Ships Ate The Sky The New Radiohead album
Annabelle Posted February 27, 2006 Report Posted February 27, 2006 not to jump on this pitchforkian buzz band, but the new liars album is pretty amazing. its gonna be their benchmark. something they'll always try to top. maybe its their loveless? do they have the CRED to become a my bloody valentine? there's no dance punk. no no wave. its almost about space & time. its a very quiet album. the loudest quiet album i've possibly ever heard.
Red Baron Posted February 28, 2006 Report Posted February 28, 2006 Every new Ministry album I hear, I'm always let down. Maybe its my obsession that Psalm 69 kicked ass nine ways from sunday, but anything after, just doesn't live up.
Rendclaw Posted February 28, 2006 Report Posted February 28, 2006 Agreed. Psalm 69 came along at just the right time. My circle of friends were obsessed over it.
Ravenbomb Posted February 28, 2006 Report Posted February 28, 2006 didn't the Liars album "Drum's Not Dead" come out this year?
Bruiser Chong Posted March 3, 2006 Report Posted March 3, 2006 I got ahold of an advance copy of Ghost's Fishscale this morning. It can tide me over until 3/14, but I want the album now. This thing's gonna be hot.
Ravenbomb Posted March 4, 2006 Report Posted March 4, 2006 hence why i posted about it here didn't see your post about it
cbacon Posted March 4, 2006 Report Posted March 4, 2006 I likes the new Yeah Yeah Yeahs album. The LL Cool J cover is surprisingly good.
k thx Posted March 5, 2006 Report Posted March 5, 2006 I got ahold of an advance copy of Ghost's Fishscale this morning. It can tide me over until 3/14, but I want the album now. This thing's gonna be hot. Yeah. I'm looking forward to the DOOM/Ghost collab more though.
Giuseppe Zangara Posted March 11, 2006 Author Report Posted March 11, 2006 Prince's 3121 starts strong but runs out of the gas in the second half. I'll give it a couple more listens just to make sure. And I'm really liking the new Morrissey. I wasn't expecting to, either.
The Czech Republic Posted March 11, 2006 Report Posted March 11, 2006 How much Ringleader have you heard so far? I've only heard "You Have Killed Me" and I liked it
Giuseppe Zangara Posted March 11, 2006 Author Report Posted March 11, 2006 The whole album. The production is a little more sympathetic to the material than on YATQ, plus the songs are better, anyway.
The Czech Republic Posted March 12, 2006 Report Posted March 12, 2006 I still like YATQ but "America Is Not The World" is horrible. Why wasn't "Irish Blood English Heart" the leadoff track instead? Anyway, if the music is less pop-punky, I'm all for that.
Slayer Posted March 12, 2006 Report Posted March 12, 2006 Speaking of 3121, I just saw the video for "Black Sweat". It was allright, but that high pitch noise (I don't know the name for it) he used throughout the song was more annoying than anything
Giuseppe Zangara Posted March 12, 2006 Author Report Posted March 12, 2006 It's just a synthesizer. And yeah, it's annoying.
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted March 12, 2006 Report Posted March 12, 2006 "America is not the World" is so fucking lame. That's the only song off that album I've heard.
Giuseppe Zangara Posted March 14, 2006 Author Report Posted March 14, 2006 Listening to ROFT a second time, I'm noticing just how much echo has been placed on Moz's vocals throughout the album. It's nothing severe, really, but it's enough to make it worth mentioning. I guess I knew his voice isn't quite up to snuff these days, given how rough he sounded at times on that live album released not too long ago. Still, I like this far more than I would've expected. I'll probably buy it when it comes out.
Si82 Posted March 17, 2006 Report Posted March 17, 2006 I'm quite surprised by how good the new Placebo album is. Also, the new Graham Coxon album, "Love Travels At Illegal Speeds", is also very good. It's the perfect companion piece to "Happiness in Magazines". Full of good quality pop nuggets.
Guest Van Mundegaarde Posted March 19, 2006 Report Posted March 19, 2006 So far this year: Great: Belle & Sebastian- The Life Pursuit Neko Case- Fox Confessor Brings the Flood Liars- Drum's Not Dead The Fiery Furnaces- Bitter Tea TV on the Radio Destroyer- Destroyer's Rubies Boris- Pink The Knife- Silent Shout Sunset Rubdown Full Length Jens Lekman- Oh You're So Silent Jens Danielson- Ships Good: The Flaming Lips- At War With the Mystics Cat Power- The Greatest Morrissey- Ringleader of the Tormentors The Minus 5- The Minus 5 Ghostface Killah- Fishscale Sway- This is My Demo Jenny Lewis- Rabbit Fur Coat Tapes 'n Tapes- The Loon Islands- Return to the Sea Beth Orton- Comfort of Strangers Man Man- Six Demon Bag Band of Horses- Everything All The Time Marit Larsen- Under the Surface Loose Fur- Born Again in the U.S.A. Yeah Yeah Yeah's- Show Your Bones The Editors- The Back Room Ok: T.I.- The King We Are Scientists- With Love and Squalor Test Icicles- For Screening Purposes Only Calexico- Garden Ruin Mogwai- Mr. Beast Isobel Campbell & Mark Lanegan- Ballad of the Broken Seas Grandaddy- Just Like The Fambly Cat Arctic Monkeys- Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not Roseanne Cash- Black Cadillac The Strokes- First Impressions of Earth Hot Chip- Coming On Up Pink Mountaintops- Axis of Evol Television Personalities- My Dark Places That's everything I've found something redeeming about. There's other shit too, but whatever. Fuck that shit. And yes, some of this shit is '05 stuff (Lekman, Boris, We are Scientists, etc...) but I didn't get around to it; regarding Boris and Jens Lekman, I regret putting it off for so long. I don't know if music just keeps getting better each year or if my resources in getting it just grow exponentially, but I feel like the first quarter of this year has been packed, more than a few mixtapes of serious A+ stuff.
Lord of The Curry Posted March 19, 2006 Report Posted March 19, 2006 I need to give Fox Confessor another shot because I barely made it through the whole album upon first listen.
Gary Floyd Posted March 19, 2006 Report Posted March 19, 2006 I've been meaning to buy the new Goldfrapp and Revolting Cocks Albums. Are they any good?
Guest Van Mundegaarde Posted March 19, 2006 Report Posted March 19, 2006 Yeah, seriously, I wouldn't quite rank it above 'Blacklisted' but it's just shy of being tied. Really really strong album. I'm not sure what a lot of this shit is about it being overthought and too restrained, etc... Plus 'Star Witness' is a career highlight for her.
Si82 Posted March 19, 2006 Report Posted March 19, 2006 "Supernature" is a really good album. "Ooh La La" and "Satin Chic" are both awesome tracks.
Special K Posted March 19, 2006 Report Posted March 19, 2006 I need to pick up the new Yeah Yeah Yeahs album. I liked "Fever to Tell" quite a bit, and "Gold Lion" is boss.
Gary Floyd Posted March 20, 2006 Report Posted March 20, 2006 "Supernature" is a really good album. "Ooh La La" and "Satin Chic" are both awesome tracks. I heard "Oh La La, and loved what I heard. I've been singing it to myself a lot lately. For you Synth Pop fans out there: I think that Erasure and Pet Shop Boys are going to be releasing new albums this year. Also, Gary Numan is releasing a new album in April. Oh, and Pop Will Eat Itself are supposed to be releasing a new album this year.
Anorak Posted March 24, 2006 Report Posted March 24, 2006 So far this year: Great Jens Lekman- Oh You're So Silent Jens It certainly is.
Failed Bridge Posted March 24, 2006 Report Posted March 24, 2006 the new Tool album is a little over a month away from being released. That's the one I'm looking forward to.
