Smashing Pumpkins
...so everyone forgets about 'Zeitgeist'
Weezer, because they're too awesome.
Death Cab For Cutie, as I just bought their entire back catalogue and am not yet satisfied.
mew
the last one feels like years ago.
a proper outkast album would be nice - a big boi solo album will do though.
roddy woomble, i like my secret is my silence.
Yes Mew, I love Mew.
.
Mew
Mew Mew Mew Mew Mew
It's been too long!!
Mew are having a break and working on another dance based project!
apparently.... the bassist has definitely left
new death cab LP
is out in may or something.
The Avalanches
because it's been 6 years!
jeepers
^yes, this
doves
three years now...some cities wasn't exactly great though
Spiritualized
Wilderness- 'Hiatus' my arse!
The Postal Service. . .
and obviously Death Cab For Cutie, which one would you prefer to be released first?
the faint
Also. . .
Good shout for Doves, I didnt mind 'some cities' piss poor in comparison to 'The Last Broadcast' though. . .
this thread appeared a bit ago as well?
Doves.
Wolf Parade
God dammit!
^ x a billion
I wish they would stop wasting time with rubbish (in comparison) side projects
hold on a second
sunset rubdown and handsome furs are ace. Yeah they're not as good as Wolf Parade but i'd at least call them decent side projects.
yeah I know
if wolf parade didnt exist id rate both highly, but as wolf parade do exist and they are taking away from wolf parade time im harsher on them
Both side projects are indeed great.
I really like Swan Lake too.
100% Wolf Parade.
Does anyone know how far they've got with that? Because I know they've written new songs...
pretty much finished
out in may/june i think.
YES!
Thank you! I love you!
I am WELL excited now.
looksy:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pardon_My_Blues
Robert Pollard.
Ha!
erm
Doves
Pure Reason Revolution
Franz Ferdinand
I
agree.
well, not really with FF.
dirty three
spinto band
Death Cab for Cutie
just said they are releasing a new one titled narrow stairs
http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/article/news/48362-death-cab-for-cutie-name-new-album
The Display Team
They can't possibly resist the desperate baying of their public any longer! And now the money's there...
;)
HUZZAH for BenefactorsWhoMustNotBeNamed!
Giant Drag
if Annie can afford to
Wow,
I'd completely forgotten about Giant Drag. Their first album was way underrated. Don't they have no drummer now though?
she has a full band now
or had when giant drag supported jamc. i really, really hope she does make a new record soon - i think she's got some [more] brilliance in her.
totally agree..
the Giant Drag album is criminally under-rated
The Wrens
and do a massive UK tour too (unlikely)
FUGAZI: How long must we wait?
At the Drive-In: Yeah, Mars Volta are 'hilarious' and all, but, couldn't you go back to being in a band that people actually wanted to listen to?
kthxbye
:D
i'm not sure cedric and omar are done being depressingly pompous yet.
...but, surely Daniel, they MUST realise how ridiculous they're being?
SURELY?!!!
They're completely stuck up their own arses.
Still a very good band though, they can go too far sometimes but I would much rather listen to them than boring samey sounding indie bands.
I've never heard ATD-I but I am ordering Relationship of Command so I will comment further when I have heard that.
Not a band as such...
But Tom Vek sometime soon would be nice, it's been three years!
didn't i read that he'd disappeared off the face of the Earth, or something?
Sufjan
Three years since Illinois, since when there's been an outtakes album, the Christmas box set and whatever The BQE was but no proper new music.
It makes me sad
Because after seeing crappy copies of Majesty Snowbird on youtube I really want to hear it in wonderful cd quality.
I second this
But I get the feeling it'll be 2009 before he comes out with a new album for some reason.
Oooooooo
Pure Reason Revolution, absolutly.
Criminally overlooked work.
Tom Vek
I know there was a whole article about this, but seriously, it's time for some new material now...
Yes,
Please Tom, if you are watching, get on it!
G!YBE
Would be nice but won't happen :(
Apparently
they meet annually to decide whether to continue with their hiatus or not. I hope they decide not to! If A Silver Mt. Zion's last album is anything to go by any new Godspeed stuff would be amazing.
B & S
yes
think TLP might have been their last, though.
I hope not
it says this on their website
"The Belle and Sebastian story will continue when everyone is ready, but in the meantime an album of songs recorded for the Mark Radcliffe and John Peel programmes on Radio 1 between 1996 and 2002 is scheduled for release later this year on Jeepster."
which would suggest that there won't be anything new for a while, though.
Scarlet Division
My Vitriol
Marion
Bowie, to erase Reality from my memory
..
Past Lives
Jaguar Love
Massive Attack
as long as it's not another 100th Window.

note
bad html was on purpose, promise! dont hurt me.
.
whaaaaaaa?
nevermind
.
nirvana
been (about) 14 years!
where's cobain's tupac-esque post-death recordings?
It's getting released in April,
so not long to wait.
Guns and Roses
on a more serious (yet worryingly similar) note, My Bloody Valentine. I didn't get tickets for their tour, but I'm still despeate for a new good album
the thought of new mbv gives me shivers
good shivers
When
is it meant to be coming out?
If it doesn't this year, I'll be mad.
please
i hope the news about them finishing their last album wasn't crap and they do actually finish an album. i hope they announce and extension to the tour and come stateside for shows.
Oasis
glassjaw
been six years!
john lennon
lazy cunt
oh?
someone's already done that 'joke', yay! it will never happen, but i'd kill/die/other for jeff mangum to produce anything musical!?! i so recon he has an infinite number of unfinished songs lying about in some form or another??? makes me sad...
yeah
so would i another NMH album will never happen but it be amazing hes only played half a song live in about 8 years and that was at a birthday party haha
seconded!
the new stuff sounds ace live on youtube....fuck head automatica off i say!
The Fall
yeah...
...how much longer must we wait - MES what a workshy fop.
PS. new Fall album's apparently done with new lineup ("the guitarist's from Pubic Fringe and the rhythm section's from Ramsbottom") due out March/April pending new label deal after Santuary got bought out...
Errors
sometime soon would be nice
The Notwist
6 years since Neon Golden. I think they may have a follow up album finally out this year, but haven't heard any definite details. Really eager for it.
Your Electric Highness
New band from the ashes of Christiansen. They finished recordings over half a year ago!
The Knife
Screw a five-year-hiatus; they whave been getting progressively better with each album, Silent Shout being a masterpiece.
(And y'know who else? Sufjan Stevens.)
Soulwax
The Avalanches
Daft Punk
Who Made Who
Crazy P
Unkle
Radio 4
Jaques Lu Cont
*makes Guns and Roses joke*
Fieldy
Neon Blonde
Holy Molar
OXES
XO Skeletons
oh yeah:
Spank Rock.
My Vitriol
& Protokoll would be nice
2Pac
They must be able to milk it with some 'never before heard' sessions.
Read also: Notorious BIG.
Eels!
Live album & compilations have been great to fill the gap since BLAOR but it should be time for a new one soon. He has one and a half ready apparently but you never know what he will end up releasing and when!
when i interviewed him
he seemed pretty reluctant to say much about the subject but yeah, one done and halfway through another! The things I'd do just to hear something...
TOM FUCKING VEK!
Royksopp
need to get their arses in gear too
Sisters of Mercy anyone?...
it's been nearly 20 years of strikes and record company wrangling...
anyone?
I'll
have that.
Elliott Smith?
WEEVIL!
although I think they may have been put to sleep.
:(
the wrens
it's been nearly five years! Although I read somewhere that there'll be new material in 2008...
TOM VEK
As already mentioned twice in this thread.
seconded.
mf doom
boxer
rebellion?
