What Music Are You Looking Forward To In The Coming Months?
I know, I know, I already gave my spiel about how there were lots of records to look forward to in 2009, but the new music I’ve heard since I penned (er, typed?) that piece—as well as the news that the eternally incredible PJ Harvey and John Parish will release a new album at the end of March—got me all excited all over again.
Really, in these days leading up to the inauguration of a new President, isn’t it fun to be optimistic about the future, despite way too many indicators to the contrary? Yes, it is. So here is a safe space for you to announce what albums, singles, tours, music videos, or whatever you’re excited to experience in the coming weeks. Remember, good moods are kind of contagious!

Take Cover: Sweetbleeders Cover PJ Harvey
PJ Harvey's musical style suits Sweetbleeders well. These local rockers were spot on in reproducing her sound, even though a man was singing her songs. The idea to cover PJ Harvey arose when Stateside Presents' Charlie Levy asked the band to play Cover the ...

…looking forward to that quiet little band ..rammstein
@cassidy2099: I’ve actually heard that QotSA will be re-releasing their first self-titled album this year, with a tour to follow.
Word is that they’ll use the tour to play said album in its entirety at every show.
Keep in mind, this is all secondhand information… It could be B.S…
I just feel the need to mention that when I first saw that picture at the top of this article, I thought it was Nigel Tufnel.
A new Parish-PJ record is all I need, really. Dance Hall at Louse Point was soooo good, and soooo long ago. It’ll be this year’s Third if it stands up.
Also, the second New Amerykah disc should be sick.
Archie Bronson Outfit. Zola.
Looking forward to the new Cure after their last one pleasantly surprised me.
Also, it’s about time Boards Of Canada put something new out, isn’t it?
Apparently I’m only into bands that have jumped the shark. Hunh.
@DocStrange: Yes, and the only band that could get all bouncy about Valerie Plame. Wonder if she’s heard the tune?
I was about to say something snarky about how I’m looking forward to anything good that I haven’t ever heard before that hasn’t been mentioned here.
Of course, what I really mean is that I’m happy that there’s new stuff from Depeche Mode, Morrissey, Antony, Neko Case, Decemberists, Ted Leo, PJ Harvey, Grinderman (is that true?), Dirty Projectors, etc. on tap.
But what I’d really love to hear is something new and exciting out of left field that will give me faith that all new bands coming up aren’t crap.
I am NOT looking forward to the continued needless hype over Titus Andronicus. Ugh.
