Albums in 2005

Thank god this isn't another awful iTunes exclusive download. Someome is actually thinking of the record stores for a change, instead of a proprietary-format megacorporation.

I noticed that S-K have a NYC tour date already lined up (and sold out).  Cool, huh?

Malory are putting out a new album soon. (I forget the details. Can get them easily enough if anyone cares.) It's been in the works since 2003 and is now ready for release. A must for all Shoegazers.

[Jaguär]

The new Malory will be released on March 21st.
 (I suspect that is the European date.)
 
 Also, their out of print debut album will be rereleased on Clairecords but the deal is still being held up in the works.

 seems pretty good

[BookerT]

the new sleater-kinney is a MONSTER of an album. wow. i'm usually not a fan of dave fridmann's production -- in fact, i think he's one of the most overrated producers out there -- but he really does a fine job on this one. they definitely sacrificed some of their catchiness/poppiness, but it's worth it. by my count, this is their 5th truly fantastic album. (not a fan of the first or all hands on the bad one, which i find rather boring.) there are very, very few bands that can boast that.

Oo! That's great news. I will go to their site now. Ah and Neverwhere. Great book. I just watched the BBC adaptation recently. Low budget but faithful to the book, I thought.

 Snow Patrol began work on their new album at the weekend.
 
 Billboard reports that the Northern rockers are in Dingle on an eight-week writing and recording session.
 
 An executive at Snow Patrol's label Fiction Records said: "We hope to have a new record later this year, but it'll be ready when it's ready. We're not putting any pressure on the guys to deliver it. They've got a few tunes in the pipeline and they're pretty confident about them."

Coldplay in No Rush
 
 British rockers' third record bumped back to June
 
 Coldplay have bumped back their long-awaited third album to June. The as-yet-titled follow-up to 2002's A Rush of Blood to the Head was originally due in March, but initial recordings with producer Ken Nelson were scrapped in favor of starting over with A Rush mixer Danton Supple.
 "I think we were in no hurry, because the prospect of touring again was so daunting that we felt we should take our time," drummer Will Champion posted on the band's Web site. "As soon as we gave ourselves a proper deadline we started to be much more productive and the stuff we were doing was miles better. It's always the same with us -- the best stuff comes when we start to panic."
 
 A Rush was similarly delayed: It was originally targeted for June of 2002 but didn't hit stores until that August. "I'd hate to rush the end of the record," bassist Guy Berryman told Rolling Stone in April of 2002, "because we have to get it in on time."
 
 As for the new album, Champion says the band has completed fourteen to fifteen tracks -- including "Square One," "What If" and "The Hardest Part" -- and is now paring it down.
 
 Meanwhile, Coldplay will perform at radio station KCRW's Sounds Eclectic Evening in Los Angeles on March 12th before headlining the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in Indio, California, on April 30th. They will then kick off a world tour in the U.K. in June.
