I'm as mad as hell and I'm not going to take this anymore
Wow wow no no, The Wombats have produced a brilliant wee album, very catchy and sing a longy! Good tunes my friend. Seen them livea few months back at the Ironworks, wasnt really into them but I was impressed.
Not so fussed about Weezer or The Black Kids...I like their new single though.
For me it's probably going to be Kings of Leon, Only By The Night...but that aint out yet...
So to begin with I'll say Jim Noir's "Jim Noir" haha. It's very good. If you like something different, give it a try. Difficult to describe but it does sound like its from the 60s. He did a tune for adiddas a while back called "Eanie Meany", have a look for it on youtube.
Elbow's album is also very very very good, nice to see them top of the charts (well on Amazon anyway)
But I think my favourite album so far has to be Vampire Weekend! Brilliant summery tunes.
Worst album....why would I listen to something I dont like? Im sure Miley Cyrus' album will be horrible, along with various other bands...but I've not bought an album I don't like this year...not that I can think of....Oh aye...Fratellis, Here We Stand....nowhere near as good as the first.
Oh aye and Wombats came out in 2007 you numpty!
Best is a tough one, Weezers new album is excellent as is the Offsprings new offering, and I'm fond of the new Metallica album too.
Worst for me would be The Verve or the Ting Tings, awful.
Ting Ting, meh they're alrite! I like Shut up and let me go, its sounds pretty cool, and Great DJ aint too bad either...would like to see what the rest of the album cos "Thats Not My Name" is a mingin!!!!!!! tune.
The Verve's album isnt too bad....bit disappointing though. But I dont think they wer ever gonna live up to the likes of Bittersweet Symphony or Lucky Man, I mean dem tunes were just bangin! Coldplay's album was a bit of a disappointment as well, but its growing on me.
Oasis album, hope its good! Quite like that new 'Struck By The Lightning'....hope the rest of the album follows suit.
Any other good new albums coming out?
Looking forward to the new Oasis album. I am keeping an eye on my favourite sites to see if it gets "leaked"
Agree the Verve album is a bit of a let down to say the least.Getting Glasvegas tomorrow so hope that it isnt over-hyped because I've been waiting for it. Metallica is a contender for best of the year but I'll wait for Noel and Liam before I make my final decision!!!!
The new oasis album is defintiely my album of the year!
It is very "beatles-esque" but thats a good thing, Liams voice on his "lennon" track is amazing and puts shivers down my spine, its that good.
I was worried it may be duff but its anything but.
A fantastic return to form
Worst album of the year-Glasvegas.
Thought it would be a "grower" but alas no, every song sounds the same and is very repetetive and over produced, after I heard "daddy's gone" I couldnt wait to hear the rest but it was an over-hyped dissapointment. I really wanted to like it but just couldnt get into it even after playing it in the car for a week!
I have decided to cheat for this answer. The best albums for me are the 30+ Tom Waits I have bought/"borrowed" this year. Discovered him around new year, and haven't stop listening to him. Even got tickets to see him in Dublin. The GREATEST SHOW EVER! No joke. Unbelievable.
And to properly answer the question, I like coldplay's new album.
