Most anticipated releases of 2011

I much prefer Enter to Mother Earth. The latter has too many ballads.

What is that? More importantly, how have I missed it?

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Looking forward to the forthcoming Samael album Lux Mundi, which will be the true follow up to Solar Soul, as their last album Above was intended as a side project. The two new songs on their myspace are awesome.

Also looking forward to the new Editors album. They are working with producer Flood again, and his influence on their last album was what made it great.

The Wilson/Akerfeldt collab is apparently finished rexording. I have no idea what it will be like but am expecting 'killer'.

 

[Hanso]

I'm looking forward to the reissue of Ozzy's blizzard of oz which comes with a dvd that has 30 minutes of previously unseen concert footage featuring Randy Rhoads!! I think it's out around April.

Original versions or the shit ones with redone drums and bass?

Those awaiting the new Foos album may be interested to learn it's currently available to stream from their website. Only on track 4, but so far it is fantastic. Yeah, yeah, I'm biased, but even I need to give a Foo album a couple of listens to get into it. I'm already sold on this one.

It says remastered from the original tapes, so I guess it is the proper version. If that set came signed by the Ozz, I would order one.

Sounding awesome from the preview tracks so far:

New ZZ Top

ZZ Top is "in full production" on a new album, its long-awaited follow-up to 2003's "Mescalero," which guitarist Billy F. Gibbons predicts will be out "by the end of the year."

Gibbons tells Billboard.com that the Texas trio has been working on the set in both Houston and Los Angeles. "I've got a little studio at my house out in L.A.," he says, "and it kind of takes the load off to be able to leave Texas, got to California, stay there for awhile and then you get to leave California and come back to Texas."

As for the sound, Gibbons notes that he, Dusty Hill and Frank Beard are "still just making a lot of loud noise. We still pose as interpreters of the blues. We can't invent it; It's already been invented. But we can do it our way." Gibbons adds that the album will be comprised primarily of originals but that the group "might cover a couple of things."

Hopefully this doesn't end up being their last.

Has anyone mentioned Vanishing Point yet? I like VP, and and now they've got a full line up again hopefully the album's going great guns.

 

[Winmar]

Ah cool, who completed the lineup?

 

[phlogiston]

According to Facebook:
Scott Griffith - Guitar
Simon Best - Bass

That's about as much as I know.

 

[Winmar]

Cool, thanks. Chris, where are you?

Foo Fighters - Wasting Light

Only 3 tracks into it so far and it's a lot better than I expected them to be capable of.
