I said that I HOPE they put out a new one but I don't think anyone has heard any news on it one way or the other.

Sigh's coming out with a new album some time this month. Don't think it's been leaked yet, though.

Ihsahn (ex-frontman of Emperor) has a new solo album that has been leaked and is very good.

Arsis has a new album set for February.

And then there's new albums from High On Fire, Meshuggah (according to their label), Pig Destroyer, Torche, Nachtmystium, The Dillinger Escape Plan, Intronaut, and possibly Electric motherfucking Wizard.

Fucking fuck, looks like it's gonna be another banner year for beard metal/beardcore

Incidentally; on the subject of "Graceland" and Simon's taking advantage, I haven't really read much about him using the African musicians he hired to bolster his own profile while taking credit for their work, but he did have a pretty well-documented spat with members of Los Lobos over their not receiving songwriter credits on "All Around the World or the Myth of Fingerprints"

Agalloch is supposed to release an album this year. I say supposed to because I said that they were last year, and then it ended up taking longer than they expected and getting postponed.

I can't claim to be an expert about this particular topic, but from footage I've seen of Simon in confrontation with people, and from what I've read and also heard first-hand from friends of my mother's, the allegation seems to have been not so much financial as artistic: Simon, it was alleged, took advantage of these African musicians to boost his own profile and claim all the work as his own. Which is why it strikes me as paternalistic, because it supposes that the African musicians weren't taking advantage of the opportunities offered by working Paul Simon just as much as he was taking advantage of their musical skills to make his album.

This would make much more sense as an argument if the contributions of session musicians weren't habitually overlooked, regardless of the circumstances. Ladysmith Black Mambazo got a hell of a lot more exposure from Graceland than the guy who wrote the bass line for Walk On The Wild Side ever did.

New Wiley album this year I think, and I'm wondering if A Forest Of Stars will do that second album.

Except Flowers was fairly established before he did Walk on the Wild Side.

this would actually rule a lot.

also if joanna put out a new album that would rule too. stoked on new album leaf and hammock as well. still not stoked about the new efterklang.

Man, I have been waiting for more Joanna Newsom. If there was a new album in 2010, it would make my goddam year. New LCD Soundsystem probably will anyway, and I'll probably obsess over a lot of other albums this year, but new Joanna Newsom could make me forget about the inevitability of suffering for like a month.

KaosPilot · « **Reply #66 on:** 12 Jan 2010, 13:18 »

Allegedly there's gonna be a new Joanna Newsom album out on the 23rd February.

I think some of the time, yeah. Like in that show Glee.

You're talking about that "California English" song? I think he is actually.

It depends on the context. I really like Discovery.

Them Roaring Twenties use autotune and I actually like it alot.

then again they are a math rock band so it's kind of totally different maybe

I'M SO FUCKING TURNED ON RIGHT NOW.

And I'm seeing her on tour for the new album FUUUUUUUUUUUCK

TheFuriousWombat · « **Reply #82 on:** 12 Jan 2010, 20:47 »

Fuckin' hell yes! So excited!! Can't believe I managed to snag tickets before they sold out too, I almost always miss the boat on these things. I'm pretty confident that Ys was one of the best albums that came out in the aughts so I obviously have really high hopes for this new one. This made my night!

On an unrelated note, the new Shearwater album is not surprisingly pretty awesome. I also heard the new Liars album leaked. Anyone given it a listen? Thoughts?

Koremora · « **Reply #83 on:** 12 Jan 2010, 21:08 »

Also incredibly awesome. As of right now I think it stands to be the best album they've ever done.

pilsner · « **Reply #84 on:** 12 Jan 2010, 22:04 »

I'm excited about Newsom's new album, but I'm even more excited to learn that her Australian label is called Spunk.

Released by Spunk.

Hurr.

Does Cynic use autotune? That is what my answer to whether I hate autotune revolves around.

That makes me wonder, though, has anyone ever put vocals through a guitar distortion pedal?

David_Dovey · « **Reply #87 on:** 12 Jan 2010, 22:29 »

I can't think of any specific examples, but I'm quite sure yes.

De_El · « **Reply #88 on:** 12 Jan 2010, 22:53 »

I know Justice Yeldham uses a bunch of pedals, but that's not really the same thing. It's a contact mic and a plate of glass that's run through pedals.

Speaking of Joanna Newsom's bottom, new Radiohead?

De_El · « **Reply #90 on:** 12 Jan 2010, 23:32 »

Really? I can't bring myself to care a whole lot about Radiohead lately, but I reckon by the time anything actually comes out I'll froth a bit at the mouth like just like with the last one before moving on.

Also re: Joanna Newsom's bottom I had to GIS to see if you were taking the piss, but, uh, yeah okay pretty exciting.

David_Dovey · « **Reply #91 on:** 12 Jan 2010, 23:36 »

Obviously talk of new Radiohead has been swirling around for quite some time because I remember finding some track they released in the distant and misty past very unappealing indeed.

I guess once they get a taste for Spunk, they keep coming back.

Spunk has probably propelled new releases to the top of the charts!

I'm thinking of buying Aussie releases just so I can have a few CDs with Spunk on the album booklets.

I gather they have somewhat of a worst-band-ever status around here, but Muse, on their first album, wrote a guitar solo part, then thought the song lost too much momentum with the rhythm guitar dropping out entirely, so they had Matt sing the guitar solo through a distorted amp.

I wasn't asking if anyone has ever distorted vocals, I wouldn't have to look farther than Iron Man to find that, I was wondering if they have used guitar effects to do it.
