Well, it's supposed to come out this year...
no one will notice that I changed thisThere's a new Dream Theater album which automatically has me wetting my pants in excitement, a new Periphery EP and possibly in the later year a double full-length (!), Tesseract's debut full-length One (which is gonna slay), the Monuments and Entrosolet debuts, Sectioned EP, Between The Buried And Me EP, new Devin Townsend albums... a lot of great stuff this year!
Kyuss is making a new album! OMG!!!!
Also the new KMFDM album will be called WTF!?, not Zilch.
The 5 geek social fallacies. Know them well.Hands up if you're waiting for the new Explosions In The Sky album.
You can't even write racist abuse in excrement on somebody's car without the politically correct brigade jumping down your throat!Ahahaha, I snuck a Tesseract plug into the Unpopular Music Opinions thread that I was quite proud of.
Just realized BTBAM EP was already on my list. Brain fart. Still, I wasn't looking forward to it as much until I listened to the new sampler in full just now, so I guess it's moved from 'should be good' to 'can't wait for it'.
I was excited for the new Winds Of Plague album until I heard the lead single, does that count?
But still, new albums from Devin Townsend (2!), Amon Amarth, Blackguard, Symfonia, Scar Symmetry, Norther, Periphery (as mentioned), Pain (!), Wolf, and Hammer Fall. This is a good year for metal (as always).
There are snakes in the grass, so we'd better go hunting!Eh, it's comin'
eventually.
That's how indie rap works, more often than not. There is also tell of The DOOM/Ghostface album coming out this year, but I'm not holding my breath for hip-hop's Duke Nuke Em Forever.
I spread my wings and I learn how to fly....Ghost and Deconstruction by Devin Townsend, particularly the latter. I'm also holding out for a Porcupine Tree album this year or at least something involving Steven Wilson, maybe that collaboration he's doing with Mikael Akerfeldt. And of course a new Dream Theater release, I'm excited to see what they'll come up with now that Portnoy is no longer dominating the show.

Yeah, I sort of wonder if they thought of the implications that naming something with that particular shout out has. Knowing them, the answer is probably yes.
