Looking Forward To 2007 (Music Edition)

Looking Forward To 2007 (Music Edition)

2006 isn’t over yet, I’ve done very little work on my year-end lists, and already, I’m eyeing numerous 2007 releases, including (in rough chronological order):

  • The Brothers Martin - The Brothers Martin (1/23)
  • Bloc Party - A Weekend In The City (2/6)
  • Calla - Strength In Numbers (2/20)
  • Explosions In The Sky - All Of A Sudden I Miss Everyone (2/20)
  • Do Make Say Think - You, You’re A History In Rust (2/26)
  • July Skies - The Weather Clock (Feb)
  • Massive Attack - Weather Underground (Feb)
  • The Arcade Fire - Neon Bible (Feb/Mar)
  • Air - Pocket Symphony (3/6)
  • Low - Drums And Guns (3/20)
  • Joy Electric - The Otherly Opus / Memory Of Alpha (3/20)
  • The Innocence Mission - We Walked In Song (Mar)
  • Stars Of The Lid - Stars Of The Lid And Their Refinement Of The Decline (4/2)
  • The Clientele - God Save The Clientele (Apr)
  • The Cure - TBA (May)
  • Fridge - TBA (May)
  • Damien Jurado - TBA (Spring 2007)
  • Spiritualized - TBA (early 2007)
  • Feist - TBA (TBA)
  • Gang Of Four - TBA (TBA)
  • The Go! Team - TBA (TBA)
  • Interpol - TBA (TBA)
  • Portishead - TBA (TBA)
  • Soul Whirling Somewhere - Almost (TBA)

MetaCritic has a much more comprehensive list.  I know there are things I’m missing, so if you know of a couple CDs that should be on folks’ radars, leave them in the comments.

    Do Make Say Think, Fridge, Stars Of The Lid and Feist are the ones i’m most looking forward to.

    The EITS is meh.  The Air is blaaand.  The Bloc Party is rather disappointing.

    I had a feeling the Explosions… disc might be a bit on the “meh” side.  The last few things I heard from them didn’t do much for me, but being the sucker for instrumental stuff that I am, I couldn’t help but be intrigued.

    Mmm, a little birdy (my computer speakers) just told me the Do Make Say Think is good.

    (translation: it’s a grower, but good indeed)

    I’d expect nothing less from DMST.
