Spured on by the mixtape thread, it got me thinking of all the ace music that has come out already in 2008. This got me thinking hell! What other treats have we got to come? These are the ones I can think of off the top of my head:
Deerhunter – Microcastle
Rolo Tomassi - ?
My Bloody Valentine - ?long shot?
Flying Lotus – Los Angeles
Burial – DJ Kicks
Dananananaykroyd – Sissy Hits
Johnny Foreigner – Waited Up ‘Till It Was Light
Volacno! - ???
Abe Vigoda – Skeleton
Broken Social Scene Presents: Brendan Canning – Something For All Of Us…
Ratatat – LP3
Wolf Parade – At Mount Zoomer
Late Of The Pier – Zarcop
Ellen Alien – Sool
then maybe to come if we are lucky:
Final Fantasy (a new tiune was on myspeace)
This Town Needs Guns (in the studio)
Polar Bear (fingers crossed)
Grizzly Bear (that new tune is awsome)
Jon Gomm (has been meaning to release for quite some time)
What are you lot looking forward to?

...
Studio - Yearbook 2
Mogwai - The Hawk Is Howling (or whatever it's called)
Voice Of The Seven Woods - The Journey
A bunch of Jesu stuff
Another Grails record
A bunch of stuff I've no doubt forgotten.
of course
mogwai that was anounced the other day wasnt it.
Indeed
Mid-September I believe. I hope they follow on from We're No Here and go epically heavy, even if I know that deep down it'll just be another text book Mogwai album with even shinier production. Although to be honest, I'll probably be happy with that.
judging by the stuff they played at QEH
It's very very heavy and loud for the most part. We're No Here x 10. They've been listening to ISIS, for sure.
Seriously?!
That's fucking awesome. I'm stoked now. Reckon there are any videos of the new stuff floating around?
I hope they play new stuff
in August <3
.
Okkervil River - The Stand-Ins
Stereolab - Chemical Chords
Cat Power – Sun
Kevin Shields and Patti Smith - The Coral Sea
Jeremy Warmsley - How We Became
Emmy The Great - First Love
PJ Harvey & John Parish
Anathallo
Avalanches?
Bat For Lashes?
Mew?
Pallett said last year that he had a Final Fantasy record ready to go in summer/autumn called Heartland.
Avalanches would be sweet
they have to look all round every record shop in the world before they make anything though...
Kevin Sheilds & Patti Smith sounds liek it could be good.
Anathallo... would be ace
And So I Watch You From Afar
Sigur Ros (although that is only in 3 weeks)
of course cowcow
slipped my mind that one. Could be a cracker
Quite a few good ones have already been mentioned
but I'm also looking forward to Telepathe's album and Sigur Ros - Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust.
bonus points for the Sigur Ros full title
;)
:(

New Green Day!
Jeremy Warmsley - How We Became
Emmy The Great - ?

i think they're planning to get an album out this year - hope so
wiki says
'They are scheduled to head to Brooklyn, New York in May 2008 in order to begin recording, and have tapped Rich Costey (who produced their breakthrough album, Frengers) once again as producer.'
i like frengers (a lot)
but it is a little glossy production-wise.
either way, i'm sure it'll be good
The new RZA album
is out next month.
I'm only looking forward to;
Broken Social Scene Presents: Brendan Canning – Something For All Of Us…
Sigur Ros - "Icelandic Writing"
I will somehow find some new music to love though even though I've only liked around 4 new albums this year.
Brendan Canning
leaked the other day and its wicked.
Thanks
will look into it.
To be honest I still haven't listened to Kevin Drew Presents that much. I just end up listening to the S/T and YFIITP.
I havent heard the Kevin Drew one either
I just got excited about BSS recntly after everyone that went to ATP kept banging on about the live shows.
I've never really wanted to see them live
but.. I only really like live bands I can jump about to and dance. I like lot's of energy and would rather jump and dance like a prat than be in awe at how good someone is.
Also the fact that no one I know actually likes them doesn't help.
true I dont know many acctual music loves in real life
I aint seen them either but one day maybe.
Conor Oberst & The Mystic Valley Band
no idea what ts called mind how did I forget that?
^10000000000000
yep gets me excited too
there ae so demos/live gubbins around on the net of some of the tunes they are pretty cool.
Modest Mouse have a new EP out soon
I believe of Montreal might have something out by the end of the year.
still no news of a new release
from Circle Takes the Square :(
C'mon c'mon c'mon...
Wiley - Grime Wave
might be alright...
No one fancy a bit of Weezer...
lightning bolt
and locust full-lengths
oh yeah
anathallo in around a month, and mew and sigur ros soon
oh and Lords
will slay.
Is the Anathallo record
coming out on Big Scarey Monsters? Or did I imagain that?
i think it is
or at least it was..
ask kev, he is on the board..
good point
he is often around talkin about Blackfish and Tubelord. Amongst other BSM gubbins.
.
new Tilly and the Wall some time this month if anyones interested...
and Mastodon are recording a new album, which is supposed to be out this year!
lou barlow
sunny day sets fire
okkervil river
dartz!
potential camera obscura
and, of course, everything crossed for new sufjan
my mate said he saw Dartz! quite a while ago
and they had a Saxophonist in a ballacklarva like some kind of Jazz Terrorist... it made me want to see them but then I haven't heard anything of these rumors since :(
Camera Obscura
is apparently going to be next year now, although they're recording it in Sweden at the moment with Jari Can'tbebotheredtolookupthespelling who did Let's Get Out Of This Country.
June seems quite good for me
Sigur Ros, Notwist, Get Well Soon, Erik Enocksson, Electric President, Benni Hemm Hemm, Eef Barzelay. Crazy month!
Hopefully TV on the radio
will have something out by the end of the year. Haven't heard anything yet though.
I haven't heard of some of those
I will have to have a google me thinks...
The Notwist album is pretty cool, it doesn't blow me away but its really nice.
there's a new Benni Hemm Hemm ?
YEAH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the benni hemm hemm
one is currently just going to be released in Iceland I think.
On the same label as the excellent Hjaltalin (who you should also like).
Hot Club de Paris
Live at Dead Lake looks set to be pretty fucking awesome.
The new animal collective record has been recorded
so that might come out this year.
A specialist selection of the above.
Deerhunter
Grizzly Bear
Studio
My Bloody Valentine
Avalanches?
Lightning Bolt
Hotly anticipated: of Montreal
Which ones on your list are u most excited about?
I like Rat t t, D hntr and Ellen Alien (who i nvr hrd of)
Which is the new Grizzly Bear tune?
.
I'm most excited about
Deerhunter... one of my fav bands.
Rolo Tomassi... ace bunch of noisey post-hard-grind-jazz-bleep-core band.
Ellen Allien... Is a wicked minimal techno album.
Flying Lotus... Makes some awsome Dub-step kind of instrmental hip-hop that sounds like its made under water on Warp records.
The new Grizzly Bear tune is from a radio session its called While We Wait For The Others... its up for download on their website its ace.
cool
I'll be looking for those. Speaking of music made underwater have you ever heard "Murmaider"? It's a song about mermaid/murder.
I haven't heard that no
sounds pretty mad and also a perfect alternitive sound track to the disney film the little murmaider
Really can't wait to hear albums from the following...
The Boxer Rebellion
Longwave
Longview
KEITH
Tin Man
A Silent Film
White Lies
Those Dancing Days
New Rhodes
The Radio Dept.
ERRORS
debut album
also:
'Preteen Weaponry' by Oneida
Might aswell give it a monday bump
for all those office workers....
Pluse why anyone wouldn't want to know that the album
Dusk + Blackdown – Margins Music
is coming out this year is beyond me. ;)

Where did you find out about volcano!
It'll be great if they do release an album this year.
Just checked their myspace
Out in August apparently. It's going to be called paperwork.
aww wicked a name and everything
there was a DiS news story last week about them finishing an album off.... and the myspeace has said for ages they are in the studio... I cant wait to hear it.
I've started a thread dedicated to the release.
;)
I just hope that picture on their myspace isn't going to be the artwork.
sweeeeet
I'm there :)
sorry i can't smell anything
the Rock's food is just too overpowing!
yeah its tough to get anyother smells
through what the rock is cookin'
Albert Hammond Jr in july
also i read an interview where the beirut guy said he was hoping to get something out (probably an ep) in autumn
Self-promotion time...
we have two releases around October time-
"i dreamt i was a hammer & everything was glass" (CD & DVD double pack thing on Organ Grinder Records- www.organgrinderrecords.com). 20 minute piece of music, with accompanying animated film by Gemma Burditt (which looks pretty freakin' sweet)
"Joy" (split 10" EP with Dear Euphoria, on Stereo Test Kit Records- http://www.myspace.com/stereotestkit)
If you like our stuff, you'll probably like these. There'll probably be some sort of launch party, too.
