What bands/singers are you looking forward to bringing out new albums?

My picks are Biffy Clyro, The Enemy, Sound of Guns, Razorlight and Lana del Rey.

[ForzaDundee]

Didn't know Biffy were bringing out new stuff. Hope it's more similar to their old stuff than their last album.

Looking forward to hearing what The Enemy come out with. Their first album was brilliant but second was absolute pish. Apparently they claim their back to their old ways so should be interesting.

Saw Sound of Guns with The View a few times so will see what they bring out.

Razorlight are one of those bands that have massively fallen out of fashion but I'll still check out thier stuff,

Noel Gallagher's bringing his collab album out this year as well which will be different but no doubt brilliant. Guessing Beady Eye will also start realeasing stuff towards the end of the year.

Although not everyone's favourites, The View's new album can't be missed. Also other good Scottish bands like The Law, The Twilight Sad and We Were Promised Jetpacks. And not forgetting the wonderful Amy MacDonald.

There will no doubt be much more which I've not read about.

Biffy are bringing out a double album.

Check out Silicon by Sound of Guns.

I am seeing The View next month so looking forward to hearing how they've been influenced from their time spent in America.

The View played two new songs at their xmas shows in Dundee. Kyle was steaming as usual but song sounds alright.

A couple albums mentioned in Shortlist this week.

Given To The Wild by The Maccabees
America Give Up by Howler - supposedly sound like The Strokes

Anyone else got any new albums they are looking forward to coming out this year?

I hear that noels collaboration might not be out until next year now. I don't know what to expect from it at all.

The killers new stuff should be good, but I am not sure if they will get it out this year. They are headlining V, but I don't think the album is recorded yet, so that is only a preview of what is to come.

I heard that too about Noel's new album.

I'm interested also to see what The Killers new album will be like as I wasn't that keen on last one. Their first album though is one of my favourites.

The whole of hot fuss is excellent, but I am not a massive fan of their later stuff at all. I would still go and see them due to the earlier tunes.

Yeah, I agree. They are one of few bands I haven't seen that I want to see.

just got the springsteen one, and sort of sped thru it on the laptop to get a feel....certainly sounds very very good
getting more into weller's new single with each play (as you suggested KK, it is a grower)
