Loved Sad Songs... and Alligator bur Boxer still hasn't grown on me. Still looking forward to new album.

Have Beach House on order along with Scout Niblett.

Good calls there. Joanna's always worth looking forward to. Aren't Modest Mouse also doing a proper full length soon?

Fleet Foxes sophomore will be interesting, always tricky if they're not to be a one trick pony. Laura certainly showed promise, but she'll have to up her game if I'm going to stick with her.

The National is probably the one I'm most excited about there.

Radiohead could retire as far as I'm concerned; its not so much the music, more the gushing from the press, it's embarrassing frankly.

"Loved Sad Songs... and Alligator bur Boxer still hasn't grown on me."

Funny you should say that, it's not Alligator territory is it, but I still liked it.

update on the joanna newsom album!

Joanna Newsom's forthcoming third album, 'Have One On Me', will be a triple album, NME.COM can reveal.

Released on February 19 in Australia and February 23 elsewhere, the album from the California harpist/singer will be the follow-up to her critically lauded 2006 album 'Ys'.

She was playing a few new songs at her RAH and Somerset House gigs, and they all sounded exquisite!

I'm rather excited.

I read a mini interview with The National who said the new album will be a little more expansive- bigger sound and more instruments apparently. I wait with baited breath.

There's a good bootleg doing the rounds of a San Francisco Fleet Foxes gig, again including new songs- also very encouraging.

I was very fond of the Ys album though I seem to have lost my copy but blimey a triple album!!! Isn't that over egging the pudding somewhat?

[mockney piers]

Ooh, Midlake have one imminenet, I'm pretty sure Fight Like Apes will follow up their debut thus year. Expecting good things if their liver performances are anything to go by.

The National have just annonced London date 6 May at RAH (and following day in Paris w/Pavement).

[Rolo Tomasi]

Massive Attack

[monica]

Mumford and sons are really doing it for me, Roll away your stone makes me cry. Listen to the words and open your heart.

[brum]

Reading through this thread has made me realise how little I know about todays Music scene. It's good to learn though. Oh no, now I sound like Uncle Bryn...!

[giggirl]

I'm liking John Mayer's new album. Still listening to Them Crooked Vultures a lot, but I suppose that's so last year now.

Funnily enough, neither did I. Think "You, Me, Dancing" swung it for me, or enough to take a chance on the new album.

[mockney piers]

Well I've given the new Midlake album a couple of listens.

Theyve definitely gone further down the path of psych-folk or whatever.

I know they're foreign like, so maybe English music has not been heard down their neck of the woods, bit I can spot a rehash of Espers II remixed by Wishbone Ash a mile off!!!

Still good mind!!

And The Calcination of Scout Niblett on the way home. It belongs in the dark area between Kristen Hersh and P J Harvey. In a good way.

[adey]

what's the iron and wine album? got all his stuff, is awesome.

rated boxer but not so much alligator. bigger sound will make them even better i think.

am about to check out mumford & sons and have just got forest fire, the low anthem & the leisure society (only heard the last one so far, which is very good).

guess it's strange i like all this stuff as spent the last 10 years listening to hip hop/soul/funk (which i still do, but think the inevitable mellowing from hitting the big 3-0 is probably kicking in).

perhaps not the right thread for this, don't know, totally different vibe - but quetzal (super chilled, understated mix of latin/african/hip hop/scratchy old vinyl), paul white & architeq (awesome 'wonky'/chopped up hip hop). different. for what it's worth.
