does it have to be something that came out this year?

or just something that I HAVE bought this year?

or can it be something that I've yet to purchase?

Cramps-Fiends of Dope Island,and I would've been dissapointed.Was really looking forward to this one and it's got a few great songs but a lot of filler.Not only that but Candy del Mar is no longer with the band. (sigh)

If you're talking the last twelve months, y'all are not going to believe it (or maybe you will, or maybe you don't give a shit), but the Foo Fighters One by One. I listen to it every day.

Second choice, hmmm, Idlewild? Because it opened up the whole band to me.

Buy anything by the Vines, Hives or Strokes and you've basically got all three!

Then I'd say the Pernice Brothers, but we'll see if the new Beulah or Shins will change that once i have it.

good question…..

Probably Massive Attacks 100 broken windows. Their previous albums were a soundtrack to my life. This was a huge disappointment.

Although the new Joe Strummer album comes out next month.

Thermals- "More Parts Per Million"

I'll pick:

Sonny Fortune- "Great Friends"

based on anticipation, I would say

Earthquake Glue - Guided by Voices
or
Down the River of Golden Dreams - Okkervil River

if I had to choose one album

probably Postal Service, which surprises me

Ouch…probably either Black Eyes or Out Hud's debuts. But, honestly, Hail To The Theif is pretty high up there for me, too.

so far the best i've bought that came out this year is lucinda williams's "world without tears"

close second would be The Pernice Bros." yours, mine, and ours" and Eels "Shootenany"

*** i am eagerly awaiting purchasing Spiritualized's new LP "Amazing grace" which i noticed the other day is in stores. And hopefully they tour the states, preferably DC.

You are a little behind in your news, aren't you? It's old news and here on this board somewhere but Spiritualized will be touring NA but, unfortunately, their management decided to skip the Baltimore/DC market this time around. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. :confused:
