Albums in 2004

apparently six by seven have a new album out this year as well - supposed to be out in March

their last effort was a little disappointing but I loved their first two
All going well, New Order should have their follow-up to "Get Ready" out before the end of the year. They've been in the studio writing and recording since last September…
Washington Social Club is supposed to have a new disc out in May. At the show last night they said it was going to "go national". Did they get a real record deal or something?

They truly have the best album titles. Brilliant.
Monster Movie have a new one due out anyday now. Looking forward to hearing that.
Wilco album details….

That next record (or should we say "cd"?) is now entitled "A ghost is born" and will, if the schedule holds, be released by Nonesuch in North America on June 8 and their affiliated labels virtually everywhere else in the world that same week.The track listing is as follows:

At least that's what you said
Hell is Chrome
Spiders (kidsmoke)
Muzzle of Bees
Hummingbird
Handshake drugs
Company in my back
I'm a wheel
Wishful thinking
Late greats
Theologians
Less than you think
pitchfork reminded me of three that I can't wait for:

Out Hud
Beta Band
!!!

the details on the Beta Band:

The Beta Band will release their self-produced, Nigel Godrich-mixed third full-length Heroes To Zeroes, May 4th on Astralwerks, according to a Billboard report (the album will be out one week earlier in the UK, on April 26th). The album will be preceded by first single "Assessment" in the UK on April 12th, with an accompanying video chronicling "the history of human warfare," according to the band's Steve Mason.

In fact, the band are hard at work on clips to accompany each of the album's twelve cuts for a future DVD release. Each of the Beta's four members will be responsible for three videos each, with the possibility that some of the tracks "may not be from the LP but will be new," according to Mason. Well, it's all new to us. Here's the album tracklist:

01 Assessment
02 Space
03 Lion Thief
04 Easy
05 Wonderful
06 Troubles
07 Out-side
08 Space Beatle
09 Rhododendron
10 Liquid Bird
11 Simple
12 Pure For

The Charlatans new album and single both titled 'Up At The Lake' will be released on the following dates:

3rd May - single
17th May - album

Burning Brides new album will be out June 8
High hopes for both TV on the Radio and Franz Ferdinand's new ones…anyone listen yet?
INCUBUS!!!! i love their new CD!!!!!!!!!!
I'm enjoying the new Incubus album,stellastarr,Hoobastank, Finger Eleven,Smile Empty Soul (who rocked on 3/4) and Blink 182's cd.
The new Franz Ferdinand is 'muy bueno' - as they say in france. And Olssons even had a copy of it yesterday after I got off work. So no complaints about music stores here from me for about a week.

The new Destroyer album (your blues) is pretty good as well; Destoyer is basically Dan Bejar, most known here for being the New Pornographer that dropped out once they got popular. Sort of hyper-literate orchestrated (although the new one has lots of synth) singer-songwriter stuff.

Anybody heard The Secret Machines? Album is due out on May 18 but you can listen to the entire album on their website:

The Secret Machines

The song "Sad and Lonely" is one of the catchiest tunes I have ever heard.

This is what makes the world go 'round. Don't like "Sad and Lonely" much on first listen, but am digging "Nowhere Again" right off the bat.
