Only album out so far this year that I was interested in was Lacuna Coils "Shallow Life"

Atreyu have a new album announced for Summer but nothing else, Avenged Sevenfold are said to be working on a new album and Slipknot might be doing a b-side sort of thing this year aswell, that probably wont be about till next year though.

[Amberr]

i love that newish album
big tunes ignition i fink its called

[Laurensh1]

Esmee Denters - Outta here.

[Jam]

Gary Go's self titled album.

im not expecting much of the new atreyu album, lead sails paper anchor was absoloutely dire compared to their previous albums.

[Neil]

I liked lead sails and paper anchor. :P

I do prefer previous albums but I didn't think the last one was that bad, I would really like to a see a single for the new album soon though. >.>

[RedStratocas]

hmmm. probably "merriweather post pavilion" by animal collective, though i need to catch up on my new releases.

[RedStratocas]

woah sry for double post but i completely forgot "vecatimest" by grizzly bear. that one's probably going to be album of the year for me, i had a major mindfart there for a second.

[Shinigami]

bat for lashes 'two suns'
little boots 'hands'

[Jxhn]

The Devil Wears Prada - With Roots Above and Branches Below
Lamb of God - Wrath
Enter Shikari - Common Dreads

[The Undertaker]

I didn't think Shallow Life was that great tbh.
Some new Atreyu should be good aswell as A7X xD BFMV are also recording a new album which I hope will be out this year or early next year.

Shallow Life certainly wasn't as good as I was hoping but out of all the bands I listen to that's the only new album out so far that I've been waiting for, Atreyu and A7X are next but only Atreyus has been properly confirmed for this year, A7X might not be out till next year sometime. >.<

Would be nice to see Five Finger Death Punches new album out this year too, also Blink-182, I can't see that happening though. xD

[The Undertaker]

Ye Blink-182 will most probly be next year :( I'd like to see Limp Bizkits new album this year and BOWLING FOR SOUP :D New album in september xD

[samsaBEAR]

The Devil Wears Prada - With Roots Above and Branches Below
Lamb of God - Wrath
Enter Shikari - Common Dreads

TDWP's album wasn't as good as previous ones I didn't think, I just loved the intro/breakdowns on Big Wiggly Style :D

I'm not a fan of LB, but I'll proper pick up the new album. Another one is Saosin's new album, I had completely forgot how good they were, they've got a new album out this year.
Also, We Are The Ocean's debut album could well be a contender when it's released

[Jxhn]

TDWP's album wasn't as good as previous ones I didn't think, I just loved the intro/breakdowns on Big Wiggly Style :D

I thought it was just as good as the first one. I wasn't as keen on Plagues, but it was still a good album.

[Vennal]

Probably diffrent to everyone else's but dww - My favorite is a collaboration;
Ministry of sound - DJ Ez . 3 CD album, love EVERY song :) Classics and new garage.

[Rixion]

BoA's self entitled album.

[Monopoly]

FloMac's album released on the tenth will no doubt be ******* amazing.
I'm so excited I could pee.

[PaintYourTarget]

Sam, you forgot the Hot 'n Heavy by Drop Dead, Gorgeous.
Common Existance by Thursday was alright, well I listened to it a lot.

Most disappointing has to be Music For The People.

[IceNineKills]

A Skylit Drive - Adelphia

[samsaBEAR]

oh yes i did, sorry lee. and i do agree with Music For The People. It's dire in comparison to their debut.

[Josh-H]

La Roux's debut is damn good.

[clueless]

yeah passion pit or maybe lisa hannigan :o

[beth]

hmm, i'm gonna be honest, nothing has really changed my life this year.

hot 'n heavy was alright, but cba with it after about 3 listens.
i think i'm gonna have to go with alexisonfire, even though that's nowhere near as good as their older stuff.
+ taking back sunday's "new again" is alright, but nothing catchy.

incredibad by the lonely island is quality, though.

[Crimson]

Bat for lashes has been my favourite album so far.

[Invent]

Probably Andrew W.K. - I Get Wet.

[Agnostic Bear]

I'd have to go with:

United States of Mind
Northern Light

both by Covenant

Not albums made this year, but they are the favourites of mine in this fine year of 2009.

[FlyingJesus]

Probably Andrew W.K. - I Get Wet.

That's more 2001, less 2009.

So far this year I haven't heard any new albums that've struck me as fantastic. Jadakiss released The Last Kiss which was disappointing for him and Eminem's Relapse was just crap. That said, there are a few upcoming albums that'll (hopefully) be among rap milestones as some of the old giants are coming out with new material.

Dre's meant to finally be releasing Detox, 5 years too late, but he's said every year that it's coming out so not holding my breath. Blueprint III should be set for September so that'll be some good old Jay-Z magic, hopefully better than American Gangster was. Chamillionaire got Venom coming which will be a hit like always.

Biggest 2 for me are both speculations but supposedly coming this year: Only Built For Cuban Linx II from Raekwon who I adore and also Seventh Seal supposedly due this year as Rakim's first real album in 10 years. Looks like hip hop's not dead after all

[samsaBEAR]

i'd also like to add miss may i - apologies are for the weak. amazing album, think the devil wears prada mixed with bring me the horizon

[uh huh her]

the asteroids galaxy tour - fruit
amazing debut

[Sly]

clubland 15 is a gud'n

[Vennal]

I enjoyed that aswell, decent album.

[PaulMacC]

Billy Talent III - BT
Homesick - ADTR

[Jord]

Dark horse - nickelback but its 2008

[beth]

Billy Talent III - BT
Homesick - ADTR
how is that billy talent album? love 'em but haven't checked it out.

[FlyingJesus]

If it's Paul's favourite of the year it's probably crap

[The Undertaker]

Killswitch Engage's new album is pretty good :D

[samsaBEAR]

how is that billy talent album? love 'em but haven't checked it out.
everything by billy talent is crap

[Antallica]

[Robbie]

The Enemy - Music for the People

THE BEST ALBUM EVER IS:
Empire of the Sun - Walking on a Dream (also 2009)

[Monopoly]

Florence and the Machine's album is amaaaazing. :)

[beth]

everything by billy talent is crap
PUNCH YOU IN FACE TWICE.

[PaulMacC]

PUNCH YOU IN FACE TWICE.
Awesome, not as heavy as Billy talent I or II but it's good. It is good though, the whole album is awesome bar the song called Sudden Movements.

[abrocks22]

i'm a fan of Gary go as well!

[Samantha.]

I like Lily Allens new album and also Britney Spears

[beth]

Awesome, not as heavy as Billy talent I or II but it's good. It is good though, the whole album is awesome bar the song called Sudden Movements.

Id have to agree with all of that.

[beth]

and, i know it's more 2008 than 2009, but since i'm getting fully into it now:
beyonce's "i am sasha fierce" is bloody brilliant.

lovelovelove it.

bombay bicycle club - i had the blues but i shook them loose
the horrors - primary colours

not been much excellent stuff this year really.

Hot n Heavy was an AMAZING album. im loving it.

But as with Alexisonfire, im greatly disappointed.... The album sounds the same the whole way through.

[:bev]

my fave is
relapse by eminem
:)

[Mitch4?]

Taylor swift, fearless.
Even though it's like '05/'06 only just getting released here, Veronicas - Hook me up/The secret life of...
Little Boots - hands
florence and the machine - lungs.
love love loveeeeeee

:):):) all briliant

[Crimson]

Ooh, I have to add Florence + The Machine, Lungs! It's my most favourite album I've heard in a long long time.

[LuketheDuke]

glad other people think Alexis' new album is kinda crappy, i was gutted after Crisis blew my socks off.

And id recommend Our Lady Peace's new record.

[Wahey]

Greenday - 21st Century Breakdown
Eminem - Relapse


2008 was better though imo

[Ulpha]

has to be Florence and the Machines album Lungs. So glad I heard about her before she became mainstream 'cos now i've got tickets to see her at Manchester Academy. (:

[Ulpha]

Crimson is obviously a fan of Florence too. x)
Blinding is his signature if you didn't know. My favourite song of the album has to be either Cosmic Love or Bird Song (Deluxe Version)

[Coding]

arctic monkeys - humbug!

[Ulpha]

i think the album has to be out to count :)

[EmoGilly]

Greenday - 21st Century Breakdown
Eminem - Relapse


2008 was better though imo

Greenday?!
***? Their new stuff is like nails on a chalkboard...
Its actually depressing to listen too.

[samsaBEAR]

Greenday - 21st Century Breakdown
Eminem - Relapse


2008 was better though imo
