Untitled yet, but it looks like the new one by My Morning Jacket will be released on June 10. I am looking forward to this one very much.

Two of my favourite bands, Elbow and Supergrass are both releasing albums in March. Might need to freeze myself like Cartman when he was waiting for the Wii to be released, because I can't wait!

Stereogum reported a few weeks ago about 2008 releases, and they claimed there was a Girl Talk album that was going to be released in January. I have not found any place that confirms this.

Has anyone heard anything?

I'm so tired of this. Thanks Illegal Art. Illegal Art's promotional team (Fanatic Promotions) briefly mentioned a new Girl Talk album slated for January when discussing other Illegal Art releases (Yea Big & Kid Static, etc) but Illegal Art has said it's not ready but as soon as it is they'll release it electronically. Also, they offer a preorder service of sorts where if you pay a flat rate they send youa bunch of their different releases (incl. Girl Talk) within days of the mastering and pressing being done.

the only 2008 album i listened to so far is The Forms - s/t produced by Steve Albini. It's bad. don't touch it. Flat indie rock music without hits, hooks, soul, clear sound. Bad. It's not THAT bad, but it's bad.

So, the Silver Jews are releasing a new album, and it looks fantastic. They're releasing it in April (to long Berman!), and from what I've heard it will be fantastic. They've already got album artwork picked out, mastering done, so it's only a matter of time. Then again, it's going to be at least four more years before they release another album *sigh*. Oh well. At this point, 2008 could be responsible for this album alone and I could care less.

I've been hearing good things all over about the new Silver Jews, but I don't know the band too well. I'm going to get into "American Water" before I try anything new.

Oh, and the M. Ward/Zooey Deschanel collaboration could be good... M. Ward's 2006 album was pretty great and I have a bit of a crush on Zooey. However, I'll have to get past the horrendously twee name of "She and Him" before I actually am able to listen to it. I just don't like the idea of putting an album by "She and Him" on my year-end list.

Chamberk, please get American Water. It's hard to track down (at least near me), but it is so worth it. The best thing Stephen Malkmus came near, and this is coming from a Pavement fan. Honest to God, David Berman (the band leader) has lyrics that rival Bob Dylan's. And I'm maybe only exagerrating a little.

Another album that wasn’t physically released here last year (only released in the UK) was Dizzee Rascal’s Maths + English. Thanks to the Def Jux label (the one El-P is in charge of,) they will release the album for the U.S. on April 29. I will surely be picking it up.

The most recent issue of Under the Radar magazine has a lot of great information about upcoming 2008 music - Death Cab for Cutie, My Morning Jacket, The Flaming Lips, etc. Zooey Deschanel and M. Ward are on the cover for their scheduled debut as She and Him. Not a lot of definitive release dates, but there's quite a bit to look forward to.

Oh neat, I didn't know that the Flaming Lips had one scheduled for this year. I was kind of lukewarm on "At War with the Mystics," but I'm always interested to hear what they're doing next.

Ooh, and the new Chris Walla's out there somewhere. Looking to listen to it after work.

It's probably going to be a soundtrack/tie-in to this crazy-sounding film Wayne Coyne is in called Christmas on Mars. Apparently it's been around awhile but is due to be released sometime this year. You'd have to track down the article for more details, that's all I remember at the moment.
