The 2010 Albums Thread

This is meant to be an extension of "The 2009 Albums Thread". Since it's dated, I thought I'd start a new one to serve as a Part II, of sorts.

Butterfly Explosion
(with help from God Is An Astronaut)

Target date: February 2010

From what I've heard, it's very good and even better than their debut EP.
No clue on dates for these two but:
New Jack Rose on Thrill Jockey


New album from Rick Bishop/Chris Corsano/Ben Chasny's yet unnamed band. If there was ever a supergroup that's not destined to fail, this is it.
Not exactly an 'album' but related enough to include in this thread.

Upside Down

A documentary on Creation Records

Did that shoegaze doc Beautiful Noise ever come out?

Edit: found the filmmaker's blog.

my faces are as many as sally field's unmedicated schizophrenia.
"We are delighted to make the first TRUE announcement concerning the forthcoming haunted and exhilarated album by Current 93. This will be released on or
around David's birthday in 2010.

THE CIPHER FOR THE ALBUM IS

.'. BS:SO .'.

THE TRUE NAME WILL FOLLOW SOON 

Full details will follow very soon of the subscription edition.

Each track has a picture. Each picture has a face. Each face has one of you in it.

We are also considering whether to make the book, CD and vinyl of this album available only by mail order and for download. These discussions continue."

;D

Awesome, I cant wait.  The EP was very good, and gets play on my shoegaze playlist.  Plus working with GIAA?  Bad ass.

And the Spree definitely need to release something new.  They usually do a few years between albums, and the Fragile Army just came out in 2007.  Wiki says they started their new one in August, so maybe mid next year… 
just heard this morning that the new "untitled as of yet" album from hot chip is due out on the streets at the end of feb.  can't wait!!!  just also heard this morning this horrid, god awful remix of over and over.  can wait!!!

"The Magnetic Fields to Release Realism in January 2010



The Magnetic Fields are back and presumably better than ever. Their eighth LP, Realism, is set for release January 26 via Nonesuch. Aside from the title, release date, label, and tracklisting, we ain?t got much else to say. But I bet it?ll be as compelling as 2008?s Distortion (TMT Review). I mean, why not?

Realism tracklisting:

1. You Must Be Out of Your Mind
2. Interlude
3. We Are Having a Hootenanny
4. I Don?t Know What to Say
5. The Dolls? Tea Party
6. Everything Is One Big Christmas Tree
7. Walk a Lonely Road
8. Always Already Gone
9. Seduced and Abandoned
10. Better Things
11. Painted Flower
12. The Dada Polka
13. From a Sinking Boat"


Hell yes.
God Is An Astronaut will have a new album out sometime in 2010.

Also, Air Formation has a new one coming out. Not sure of release time but suspect it won't be before this year ends.
The Beach House album leaked and from what I've heard so far, it's much better than Devotion (I didn't care much for Devotion, though).
Sennen will release their new album in March of 2010. They play British Rock with a few Gaze elements mixed in.
New massive attack at least in the UK

Massive Attack fifth album: 'Heli-go-land' out on Feb 8th. With Horace Andy, Martina Topley Bird, Damon Albarn, Guy Garvey & Hope Sandoval.
