Blackfield - Blackfield II 4.5/5

My only complaint is I'd have loved for it to be longer than 42 minutes. Other than that, another fantastic release from Steven Wilson and friends.

Where is this song from? Is it on his last album that came out last year or is it something new. I love Sage Francis and think his one of the best emcees out right now and havent heard this or might have missed it on his cd from last year because I just put cds on my ipod and get rid of the cd.

Edit: Did search on google and found it comes out in May. definite must buy for me just go El-P's newest album and so far i like it.

Mika - Life In Cartoon Motion (I know a lot of people here hate him, I love the cd from start to finish)
NIN - Year Zero (great concept album)
Tori Amos - American Doll Posse (23 songs and just about everything here is ace)


Bjork - Volta (taken me enough listens, but I've really started getting into it)
John Mellencamp - Freedom's Road (his finest since Big Daddy)
Maroon 5 - It Won't Be Soon Before Long (a much funkier, rocking effort than Jane, loaded with songs that ae sure to be ubiquitous)
Yoko Ono - Yes I'm A Witch (the first of her two remix/remake albums, great collaborations)
Yoko Ono - Open Your Box (Yoko works up a dancefloor, who would've known 10 years ago? but yet it's a great collection of great dance music)


Erasure - A Light At The End Of The World (half killer.... half filler)
Feist - The Reminder (some really great chillout music, but drags on a little long)


Fall Out Boy - Infinity On High (like a few songs, but as a whole bored)



anticipating in the next few months:

Natasha Bedingfield - N.B.
Smashing Pumpkins - Zeitgeist
Cyndi Lauper - Savour Faire
Prince - Planet Earth

possible 2007 releases:
Madonna
David Bowie
Goldfrapp
Kylie Minogue
Sheryl Crow
Mariah Carey
