Boy, this is a happy year for my ears! Cold Play's new album Viva La Vida or Death and All his Friends, and the upcoming albums from Oasis and AC/DC!! Man, I can't wait.
Is the new coldplay album good? I've been considering getting it. And personally, I think that Oasis and AC/DC's recent stuff hasn't really been up to scratch...
Billy Idol has a new hits album with bonus dvd and digitally remastered some of those classics. Plus new tracks. aye what a bargain. Seriously though New albums. Marillions new album The Road To Happiness is due in 6 weeks and I've already got mine preordered.
Slipknot's new album "All Hope Is Gone" August 25th and Papa Roach's new album "Metamorphosis" August 26th Lostprophets changed their date to next year :-(
Viva La Vida is incredable. I asked my friend if I could borrow one of her Japanese albums. She brought me over 9! And what's even better I love 8 of them! So all my favourite music at the moment is Japanese!
Just got that one but not yet listened to it. Good to hear it should be great. My favourite (this week!) is Murder By Death: Red of Tooth and Claw. A rather attractive Americana-country-rock-beat combo reminiscent of Johnny Cash if he'd listened to a lot of Soundgarden in the latter days of his life. With added maudlin strings section
Reggie and the Full Effect finally released their new album. It was delayed for a long time, because the record label felt that it was too heavy.
Yeah, Oasis and AC/DC are not what they were... But, I don't really care because I usually hear older music (I prefer the vocals, like Axel Rose and Robert Plant... xD). I do hope their new albums become a hit. I'll be hearing Johnny B. Good 'til then, xD!
Ah, well you shouldn't be disappointed. P.S. Johnny Cash did listen to a bit of Soundgarden - he covered Rusty Cage. Just recieved word that Jeff Martin will be releasing his second solo album since The Tea Party disbanded. Apparently, it will be titled The Armada. With middle eastern influences, blues and dark, moody-sounding songs, it is - by all accounts - reminiscent of The Tea Party album Transmission (one of my personal favourite albums) so this is one I can't wait for! (No scheduled release date as of yet, but is expected towards the end of the year). Awesome.
Coldplay's new album is brilliant. I would go as far to say it's my favorite. There isn't a song on the album I don't like, which isn't the case for Parachutes, Rush of Blood, and X&Y, though they're all very wonderful in different ways. Strawberry Swing, Violet Hill, Lost?, Lovers in Japan, Viva La Vida, allllll amazing. I can't pick a favorite, damn it. OOh, which albums, artists?
