Alice in Chains? Thought they were finished after their lead singer's death... no idea they had a new album in the pipeline, this'll be interesting.Quote:

Didn't know Massive Attack had a new one due but am also now very much looking forward to that!
The Prodigy 'Invaders Must Die', ive heard the title track, sounds pretty good. And the original line-up is back too.
I'll just be happy if Dr Dre releases Detox
Think I remember saying that this time last year too!
These are 2 albums that were actually released last year, but I reckon will be big in 2009 on this side of the pond.
Nikelback - Dark Horse
Lady Gaga - The Fame
Big Boi's first solo one. I've already heard some of it, it's very good.
Dr. Dre (hopefully).
merriweather post pavillion - animal collective. insanely touted as album of the year already according to pitchfork but it wouldn't surprise me, i love the AC i dooo.Quote:

i dunno, music with conventional guitars/verses/choruses bores the hell out of me mostly, i might pick up more spoken word stuff like robert ashley or the sound-art strangeness of william burroughs. but that's already released, not exactly 2009 :D:cool:
The Manics - Journal For Plague Lovers (Working Title)
Doves
Yeah Yeah Yeah's
The Strokes, The Arctic Monkeys and My Bloody Valentine have all gone into the studio or are in the process of doing so in the next while.
Remains to be seen if the sessions result in an album for 2009.
I'd particularly hold my breath on the MBV record! :D
Ooh, sounds kind of intriguing too. Without fear of correction I can say I've never heard one iota about them before, but I'll be keeping an ear out from now. :)Quote:

Funnily enough I'm not, but the first two albums I ever owned that weren't Now thats what I call music (insert number > 5) were Born in the USA and The unforgettable fire.Quote:

I saw White Lies playing support to Glasvegas a few weeks ago and i was very impressed with their live set.
Some critic in The Fly mag over here, compared the album to it. That really got my hopes up. On first impressions, it's really good...Quote:
