What upcoming albums are you getting excited about?

The new Andrew Bird has me excited. The pre-release track is streaming here: http://soundcloud.com/andrewbird/eyeoneye
(and it sounds great!)

The first Fleet Foxes offshoot is Poor Moon, which is Christian and Casey (bassist and keyboardist, respectively) doing an EP. They have a pre-release track available for stream and download: http://www.subpop.com/artists/poor_moon
(this one took me by complete surprise, because I find the song completely rules)

That's all I've got, so far.

I just don't know if I'm willing to drop $65 on it.

From the few tracks I've heard with Erykah Badu, Musiq with Chrisette Michelle and KING the album is sounding like a winner. Lupe Fiasco and Yasiin Bey are also featured on the LP.

Album drops 2/28

I'm curious to hear new material

Then the executives at Fiona's label said it's dropping this year but only hinted at it releasing "sometime this year". Either way I'm excited for her new album. Its been done for over a year but the label has been sitting on it for some reason.

KRIT, can't really think of anything else, unless Lupe, Hov, and Kanye actually drop albums this year. I just laughed at myself for saying Lupe.

complex has a pretty good list, and metacritic always has a huge list.

Big KRIT.

Big Boi, "Daddy Fat Sax." I don't see it as a good sign that after predicting a Q4 2011 release, nobody has breathed a word about this in months. Hope it's not shaping up to get mega-delayed like his last one.

Sizzla, "The Chant." Yeah he puts out a couple albums a year usually, but this one looks really good.

Aura Noir, "Out to Die." Obligatory metal band nobody will recognize or care about. These guys are too fucking good though. My list of metal albums coming up is pretty long, this can just be a representative sample.

Busy Signal. Been rumored he was going to put out a one drop (reggae) album soon. Hope that comes to pass, but if not I'd settle for another straight dancehall album. He did four albums from 2006-2010, so I'd say he's overdue. Still no date or title though, but that's not necessarily weird in Jamaica - they don't hype album releases like we do.

I am slowly getting back into metal but need to catch up on the past decade.

Mines....

Black Star
Nas
EL-P
Jay Electronica-though I know it ain't droppin...
Blu/Madlib Collabo
Q-Tip "The Last Zulu"
Masta Ace/Doom Collabo
Ghost/Doom Collabo-which also won't likely be released...
Whatever Exile comes with...
Whatever Oddisee drops...
If Edan ever resurfaces with something...
Aesop Rock
Willie Evans Jr.-who is being slept on right now....
Primo/KRS-One Collabo

Ace/Doom?

Tip?

Willie Evans Jr?

If that shit ever comes out.



I look forward to any project Kno produces, and this album is like 8-9 years in the making at this point.


It will either be one of the dopest albums ever made or a huge disappointment.

Sorry, didn't mean to reply to your post

The Dream, Yeasayer, Animal Collective, the other Death Grips album, Phoenix

of course I will be pumped when a release date is set, but until then, hard to be too excited.

<--- ...watch out Mountain West?

are my top picks - yeah, im expectin the H.Stax joint to hit just as hard as Double Barrel...

Every Mello release i can think of - usually dope front-to-back.

New Nas, Daughters got me hyped.

Plus fcourse

the new Dilated Peoples
the new NYGz - entirely Premier
Premier vs. Pete Rock album
Mic Tyson
The Solution

Whatever Khrysis decides to do next
Whatever M-Phazes decides to do next

Some of them upcomin ALC albums.
Some of them upcomin JAMLA releases.

Also, im REALLY hopin for a new Finale album... or a collabo with Invincible.
