What albums are you looking forward to in 2014?

Its ok I didn't know until few days before, when I was having a moan on twitter about her not being on the lineup and someone told me she was

Was firsr or 2nd on Sonic, either she isn't as popular as I thought or loads didn't realise as it was a tiny crowd.

she was on the Sonic Stage really early if i remember correctly. was gonna go see her but ended up seeing Four Tet / Young Fathers instead. no regrets here, although it would've been nice to see her. i suspect she'll return in a much more prominent slot next year

Yeah I reckon if she's back next year she'll have a bigger slot, Boom Clap has been pretty big.

Releases to come soon......

Deacon Blue

Machine Head

Lonely the Brave

a wide range of music taste?

currently listening to Interpol's new album and it's surprisingly good. obviously not up to the heights of Turn On The Bright Lights but on first listen it seems much better than their previous album (which i struggled to get through once)

Interpol are a prime example of a band who won't ever really be able to release a great album again as their sound is so one dimensional/stuck in the early 00's, but this seems to be giving it it's best shot

How've you got this??

[Superscally]

Wow. Still gonna hang for the solid copy though...

[dentalplan]

I thought it was good. Better than the last two anyway. They never really do stray from the path and all the albums could have been borne from the same recording sessions but if it ain't broke don't fix it.

see i REALLY liked Our Love To Admire although i know that's a massively unpopular opinion. i think i actually prefer it over Antics (although i for some reason haven't listened to Antics nearly as much as i should've)

but yeah, it's as good as a new Interpol album could be really. was never gonna break new ground but it's an enjoyable listen at least, which their last album wasn't

[tommyds]

Not really a new album but, having seen him on West Holts, I bought the Charles Bradley album, No Time for Dreaming, and it is astounding

If you like old fashioned soul you should definitely buy it

[CHRLY]

Gunna give Interpol a listen today, like others I love turn on the bright lights but they've never done anything else nearly as good as that.

Yeah I was listening to this earlier in the year and really liked it then. Listening again now, ta!

I'm looking foward to that new Caribou record and some excellent reissues on vinyl, dubnobasswithmyheadman in particular.

Yes, the new Caribou is shaping up to be rather excellent, based on what I've heard so far.

I've had the long mix of Can't Do Without You on a loop for about three weeks now.

[Gucci Piggy]

New 2:54 album in November. Excited for that.

[Superunknown]

Siren Charms by In Flames, wasn't too keen on the last album but from what I've heard from Siren Charms so far it's not been too bad.

You guys know it's leaked right?

[justanothername]

Releases from

Gnarwolves

Lonely The Brave

Pulled Apart By Horses (already got a stream though but I haven't listen to it yet)

Alt J

Would like to see the 2nd half of the Powers That B by Death Grips this year

[Winslow Leach]

I do indeed, I just haven't listened to the whole thing yet.

[FloorFiller]

new Caribou is good. not as good as Swim but that was always going to be a hard act to follow. imo it sounds like his most commercial record (not in a pop kind of way - just in a conventional song structure way). seeing him in October which i'm very excited about

[Tuna]

andorra/milk of human kindness are such a different caribou sound, i almost wish that swim/our love were released as daphni or another project or something idk

yeah his sound has changed a lot, but i guess he can't just come up with a different alias every time he decides to experiment / change things up

[Tuna]

four tet's sound has changed quite a lot. go and see him live and he'll still play stuff from rounds and other early things and incorporate it into his sound. caribou's live shows are great but don't adapt like that. obviously artists have progression - don't get me wrong i love that. just when he has two monickers and it makes so much more sense to release it as daphni.

[Tuna]

just doesnt make sense to me FF :'(

OLTA is a great album. Loads of hidden gems like The Lighthouse. The last album was probably the weakest, but they were falling apart at that point. Still some great songs though, wish they played Barricade more...

[zero000]

Really looking forward to Grimes' new record. Still not sure whether I like the single or not, but it's good to see her trying something different.

You. You wonderful, glorious bastard you. I blame you. I'm utterly obsessed with the Antlers, and it's your fault. I don't think I've heard a more beautiful song than 'I Don't Want Love' for years. If they don't play at next year's festival I will blame you.

You've been a bigger influence on my life than you might realise... I think it might have been you suggesting I listen to Dry the River a couple of years ago as well - although you wouldn't have known. Shallow Bed is one of the best debut albums I've ever had the pleasure of listening to.

Keep at it, you utter bastard. I don't have time for all this good music.
