The Fall of Troy - The 2 EPs and hopefully Phantoms..maybe even the split with The #12 looks like you.

Mbv?

Yesss new Mars Volta album that is going to be so sexy.

I have a feeling the new Final Fantasy album will blow... sigh, I feel like he is a flash in the pan artist that will fizzle out once people realize that he is a one trick pony and that the trick wasn't THAT great to begin with.

A yes PLEASE for the new Antony and the Johnsons though, gimme a little love for the SMZ album..

Ac/Dc and Aerosmith, the Raconteurs, Queen, Weezer and Wolfmother are also releasing some bid'ness. I am pumped for 08. I only wish the Stripes would record another one... come on striiipess..

and the new KING CRIMSON album, who woulda thought??

He deserves cred purely for his work with the Arcade Fire and Has a Good Home is a great album how can you hate This Is A Dream Of Win And Regine?

This is kinda a hard position to defend because while I do like Final Fantasy... I don't personally think he has much left as a solo musician! He is brilliant with Arcade Fire, and man do I love Arcade Fire - I hope the album IS good don't get me wrong, this is one of the few times where being proven wrong is a blessing rather than sh!t being rubbed in my face. The reason I don't look forward to the album being released is because I feel like I will become disenchanted with him.

I guess I can see that and thinking about it there's a good chance it could be bad. I mean Has a Good Home is probably his best album and He Poos Clouds didn't really touch it, it's too early to tell and it could just be a sophomore slump but lots of people never really touch their debut albums he could be one of them.

CTTS will be interesting, bar that patrick wolf.
