New Albums

[carrie721]

what new albums are you guys looking forward to? there are so many great musicians releasing music over the next couple of months; here are the ones i'm really looking forward to:

patty griffin - children running through (2/6)
lucinda williams - west (2/13)
mary chapin carpenter - the calling (3/6)
stevie (of course) - crystal visions (3/27)
babs - live in concert (4/10)

cyndi lauper also has an album in the works, but it hasn't been officially announced yet. it's rumored to come out in march. and although i'm new to her stuff, i'll also probably buy tori's new album, which is slated for april, i think?

you guys always educate me on such great music - i'd really like to know what everyone else is looking forward to!

[Nixxxed]

Tori Amos - Still Untitled (April-ish)
Rufus Wainwright - Release the Stars (May-ish)

I only follow artists who have trouble deciding on release dates.

[markolas]

I usually only discover albums until after they're out for 3 or 4 years. Unless they're by one of the less than half a dozen of artists that I actively try to keep up with.

[DeadliestPoison]

Rilo Kiley
The Pretenders, but I don't know if that's this year or not
Cursive
Dido
Dntel
Massive Attack
Siouxsie Sioux
M.I.A.
The New Pornographers
Portishead
Tegan & Sara

[UnwindedDreams]

Ann Wilson-The Purple Heart

[carrie721]

Rilo Kiley

omg!!!!!! how did i not know this??? is there a date yet?

[rbs3676]

This year already produced one of my favorites -- the new SHINS release WINCING THE NIGHT AWAY is just incredible. Such an optimistic CD!

The Lucinda Williams CD has a big buzz behind it. I will certainly be getting that. I think she might even be playing at the SXXW convention next month.

Is RILO KILEY recording? I had no idea! I CANT WAIT!!

[rbs3676]

Ann Wilson-The Purple Heart

WTF???

Ann Wilson is doing a solo CD?????

I worship her...

WTNA is simply great.

have you heard anything off LW's album? paste magazine included a track on their sampler disc this month and i adore it. i love the less stripped-down approach she has with this album.

[goldustsongbird]

Cyndi, but I guess that's about it. I don't know. Judas Priest & Feist are putting out new albums, but I know zilch about release dates. :shrug:

[DeadliestPoison]

omg!!!!!! how did i not know this??? is there a date yet?
No set date yet other than a vague 'Spring 2007.' They've been working on it for a while now, and there's been a write-up in a magazine about it:
RILO KILEY
EXPECT IT: Early spring on Warner Bros.

Although Blake Sennett and Jenny Lewis began writing Rilo Kiley’s new record while touring their respective side projects, Sennett reports that the band assembled long enough to record 20 new songs, a dozen of which will ultimately comprise their fourth album. “The lyrics are a little more bawdy and, sometimes, uncomfortable,” says Sennett. “And if they make it to the record, we’ve got a few sweet dance songs for people to shake it to.”

Here's another article about it: http://www.nme.com/news/rilo-kiley/24529
It's sort of old (last October), but it tells you two songs that've been recorded for it (I think I have both if you want them -- Pull Me In Tighter & Acid Tongue = <3).

Anyway, I'm stoked. Rilo > everything else, tbh.

[carrie721]

Cyndi, but I guess that's about it. I don't know. Judas Priest & Feist are putting out new albums, but I know zilch about release dates. :shrug:

ooh, feist? i didn't know that. <3 her.

thanks for the info! i would love it if you could share those tracks! :xoxo:

[Rickypt]

I absolutely can't wait for Lucinda's West album. I've heard pretty much every track already via her concerts over the years and I know it's going to be another gem from an American treasure.

[catinthedark]

well, thanks to carrie (who told me about it)... the new patty griffin. :wavey:

and i actually was going to mention my latest obsession - but you guys are way ahead of me, of course! the shins. omg - what a perfect album. favourite song of the moment: turn on me. LOVE anita robinson's voice (anyone catch her performing with them on letterman and snl?)

not sure what else is on the horizon... i subscribe to four podcasts that give me previews of great indie and alternative music. i love discovering new acts.

OH! another fave right now: band of horses, and their song "the funeral."

[JazmenFlowers]

stevie (of course) - crystal visions (3/27)
babs - live in concert (4/10)
these
Tori Amos - Still Untitled (April-ish)
Rufus Wainwright - Release the Stars (May-ish)
and these

plus a new Sarah Brightman album in the works.

[goldustsongbird]

ooh, feist? i didn't know that. <3 her.



Yup, I read about it not too long ago in some article... No deets yet, though. :(

WINCING is just about as perfect of a CD as it gets. I must listen to it about 4 times a day. Just beautiful!
The song you are talking about - TURN ON ME - reminds me a lot of the Psychedleic Furs, who I adore.
My fav today (it changes all the time) is AUSTRALIA -- I do a can-can dance in my living room everytime it's on! LOL

If I had Oprah's money, though, I would have a music box made with the RED RABBITS tune...it's just gorgeous!

(Can you tell I'm in love with this release?)

Anita has added a lot to the sound and yes, she was FAb on SNL and Letterman...wish they would take her on the road.

The Pretenders, but I don't know if that's this year or not


Well, back in April of 2006, one of their London shows was filmed and recorded for an album release. I don't know when that's going to happen, though. Hopefully soon. They've had a year to work with it!

But, Chrissie has been saying that she wants to get back into the studio. When I talked to the guys in the band over the summer, they seemed keen on a new album as well. I'm thinking late 2007 or early 2008, but I could be wrong. Album or not, I want them to toooouuurrr :[

I'm really stoked about The Stooges new album. It's coming out next month. Also, I'm excited about Rilo Kiley and Lucinda. Apparently AC/DC is in the studio, too. That'd be cool.

[rbs3676]

[foxyluva]

I heard Siouxsie was supposed to be releasing her first solo album this year, so I am anticipating that, but Stevie is probably the only confirmed album I am anticipating. Im still discovering albums from 2006, like the new Ramblin' Jack Elliot, Matthew Sweet & Susanna Hoffs and Linda Ronstadt & Ann Savoy albums :woohoo:

[xdreamsunwindx]

Haha, believe me, I've tried! I guess I'm only an East Coast Merch Bitch. But everyone who's going to SXSW.. check out the Get Hip showcase March 16th. Can't remember the venue name, but it's online somewheres. It'll be good.

& I'd take ya up on the beer, but I can't drink it legally for a few more years:)

Thanks, I love Jenny and I love the Watson Twins!

About Patty Griffin, I noticed she is playing a show at the Hotel Cafe in LA (really small) though it looks like that is sold out, and she is playing at the Catalyst in Santa Cruz, which seems odd.

I have heard a new track from Rickie Lee Jones, and I am excited to hear more from her new record.

Also, Iris deMent is touring a little, so I am wondering if she has something new coming—have to go check.

[ryan8472]

Well aside from the ones already mentioned, I want to check out Mark Knopfler's upcoming solo album. There's also talk of a new U2 album coming this year, but I'll believe it when I see it. My guess would prob. be next year instead. :nod:

[carrie721]

Thanks, I love Jenny and I love the Watson Twins!

have you heard the watson twins' album that came out in july? i am so out of the loop ... i didn't even know it existed until, like, 3 days ago. but i really enjoy it.

well... i heard... that viva voce will be touring with the shins for at least part of their tour. :]

i keep checking pollstar and their site... hoping for a little toronto date...

[hayley]

Um, I got a promo of 'West' this weekend and I've done nothing since but listen to it in dark rooms, baked. It's fantastic. I love Lucinda- I mean, I LOVE Lucinda- her albums have been the soundtrack to my life in a way that nothing else comes near. I can honestly say that I think this is the best thing she's ever done. The songs are phenomenal, the mood of the whole album is a beyond description kind of intense. I think there are two things she does best- the wry, bawdy jams (Joy, Righteously, Atonement, Changed the Locks) and those jagged, quiet ballads that are just so tender in their fragility that they break your heart (Something About What Happens When We Talk, Essence, Side of the Road- my absolute favorite) and this album has the best of those extremes. Learning How To Live is phenomenal, this quiet little statement about moving on, and then you have a song like Wrap My Head Around That, which is an AWESOME 9 minute (!) JAM.

It's just beautiful. It was an unexpected gift for it to fall in my lap so early, and I really hope everyone gets it as soon as they can.

I like the new Shins, but less than I'd hoped to- I was a big, big fan of those first two albums and I think part of me still dies a little bit when I think of the whole Garden State "they'll change your life" thing. That's my own baggage!

Sharon- I didn't realize there was a new Grant-Lee Phillips coming out so soon, thank you for the heads up!

I believe this year there is supposed to be a new Sam Phillips record, which will be phenomenal if it actually ever happens. At the very least she is recording and that is all I care about.

There are a few that are coming out soon that I'd recommend to anybody-

Arcade Fire- Neon Bible
Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
Modest Mouse (Johnny Marr!! Johnny Marr!! Johnny Marr!!)
Patty Griffin
Brandi Carlile- The Story

[skcin]

Patty Griffin
Stevie
Kelly Clarkson (yeah, that's right, kiss my ass)
An Wilson (now that I know about it)

Now that I'm hearing people mention Lucinda's, I'm getting excited. I'm a casual fan, I keep meaning to get more of her stuff.

[carrie721]

^ awesome. i am so psyched about west. glad to hear it's as awesome as i'm anticipating it will be. also, i didn't know that brandi carlile had a new album on the way. i'll be getting that too.

[rbs3676]

It's still not too late to register! It's during spring break and it's a TOTAL blast. I would recommend it to anyone who truly loves music. The keynote speaker this year is Pete Townsend. Rickie Lee Jones and Emmylou Harris are both doing seminar/Q&A panels as well as performing. And there are rumors that Morrissey is returning -- he was fabulous last year.

Come to Texas!! :wavey:

Rilo > everything else, iawtc.

Blake told me in November that the album would be coming out in like April or May, but that could mean summer, and there's no title yet. But it IS coming. No fear.

Currently making sweet love to Arcade Fire - Neon Bible, hot stuff.

Also waiting for DNTEL, Apostle of Hustle, Bright Eyes, and Neva Dinova (supposedly??), and Modest Mouse?

[ragandbone]

Nick Cave's new band Grinderman, Dinosaur Jr - Beyond and the new Britney Spears!
I am a big Nick Cave fan. Have you heard any of the tracks? I know there are a few floating around, and a little video as well. The one I heard was super gritty and raunchy, and their name suggests.

[ragandbone]

have you heard the watson twins' album that came out in july? i am so out of the loop ... i didn't even know it existed until, like, 3 days ago. but i really enjoy it.

I have heard about 3 songs, and I liked them quite a bit. As I recall, I didn't think the songwriting was a strong as the Jenny Lewis material, but I love those blood harmonies! I will have to listen again. I didn't buy that album yet. I need to love a minimum of 3 songs to want to buy.
Now (thanks to your thread!) I am really excited about the *Brandi Carlile release—I didn't know about it. She has some awesome twins backing her up as well. Have you ever see her/them live? I watched a KCRW in-studio, and was transifixed by the twinly singing and playing.
*love her so much I talked my band into doing "What Can I Say", which is tons of fun to sing, even if I can't belt like she can.

that was my exact reaction, too. i don't mind the weaker songwriting because the harmonies are so fantastic.
