Spoon just moved up the release date of Transference a week to Jan 19th 2010
I've heard about half the songs on it and they are super great :D

New massive attack at least in the UK
I am anxious to heat that. But what's the strategy to a uk-only release these days? Once that recording hits the street everybody and anybody can get it.

And yet they will turn around and bitch about the download pirates.
Get with the times, Massive Attack! They aren't some little band who have to limit or stagger area releases due to extremely limited funds. The old ways of A&R don't work like they use to. Now let's just hope they don't work exclusively with Spotify which, ironically, also creates an international black market. They probably will be available on iTunes and Amazon but some of us want the tangibles without shelling out $30 or so for an import.
On the upside, those of us who are patient may very well get a bonus song or two. That too is yet another old A&R practice that only serves to encourage the pirates and pisses off their locals. (I really, really hate that practice even though, more often than not, we seem to get the extras rather than the other way around. Japanese releases excluded as they too often always have an extra something and better sound quality, at least on physical products…. at ridiculous prices.)
*Btw, for those who may be reading this post wrong, I am not justifying pirating. Only pointing out reasons and effects of their operating in the past decisions.

My earlier post regarding the new Massive Attack did go through…. but my point was the info on the new record came via a bbcmusic Twitter, and I have no other info to share regarding a US release

Ah, a day later. No problem.
But my thoughts still stand on the above since there are still some industry dinosaurs out there, not to mention the stupid cut off their noses to spite their faces Spotify crap going on. Don't blame them but I do blame very big labels, the RIAA and the CRB for that b.s..

Has anyone seen confirmation that Courtney Love is releasing a new album this year? Shut the fuck up, I still care and you're a cocksucker if you think she's irrelevant. 2010 is the YEAR OF THE.

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club
is set to release their fifth studio album, Beat The Devil's Tattoo, on March 8th (UK/Europe/Japan/Australia et al), March 9th (US/Canada) and March 16th (Germay). This release signifis the band's first full-length on their own Abstract Dragon label, in partnership with Vagrant Records and Co-Op Music Group. The band wrote and recorded most of the album at The Basement Studio in Philadelphia, PA - the same room where they wrote and recorded "Howl" as well as some work in their hometown Los Angeles. Beat The Devil's Tattoo also marks the first album with drummer Leah Shapiro.
