I don't listen to new music very much. Does 'Funeral' count?

I haven't bought many this year, let alone new albums, but 'Love Everybody' by The Presidents Of The USA and 'Face The Truth' by Malkmus are pretty damn awesome.

I like this one a lot. I think it's the best so far this year, perhaps next year, too:

Probably either the New Pornographers' "Twin Cinema" or the Decemberists' "Picaresque." Laura Cantrell's new one is also pretty high up there, as is the obvious "Honeycomb."

I sometimes have to wonder how some people manage to hear so many new albums in a given year. I can only think of eleven I've heard so far this year, and that's pretty good for me.



I was all out of luck, like a duck that died. I was all out of juice, like a moose denied.

Picaresque and Great Destroyer both excellent records. I'm still waiting for 50 ft Wave, been getting these "order delayed" messages for the past two or three months now.

Did you go through Amazon, Wilhelm? You could always try throwingmusic.com and order it direct, they're pretty good as far as I know.

yep, used US amazon. If I had waited for the record to be released in the UK I would've had it by now. Much better service through amazon.uk always.

"order shipping soon" though, guess I'll just have to be patient.

I can't choose one. I've binged this year and my taste has gone totally schizo.

I'm with you on Suspended Animation, but then there's also Pelican - The Fire In Our Throats Will Beckon The Thaw, The Melvins Tribute, Clutch - Robot Hive/Exodus AND Red Sparowes - At The Soundless Dawn and that's just off of the top of my head.

Off the top of my head, in no particular order:

Silver Jews- Tanglewood Numbers
Stephen Malkmus- Face The Truth
Broken Social Scene- S/T

Well my fave album so far is probably Honeycomb.
But the best album of the year is released tomorrow. Oh yeah.

My vote has been swayed.

These are my new favourite band, I hadnīt heard anything of Patton apart from listening to Faith No More constantly about ten years ago and a song on a Jewish John Zorn record. I got Directorsī Cut later in the afternoon so thanks for recommending these, guys.

P.S. which is better, the album with a silvery cover and Amenza al Mundo written on it or the Delirium Cordae one?
