CDIH

It's June, almost halfway through the year...what's been rocking your world so far?

I've got lots:

<ul><li>Brant Bjork & the Operators - s/t A total change for him. A little more poppy, some Cars influences...great summer beer-bq music

<li>Orquesta del Desierto - s/t Just awesome! All-acoustic experience that's tons of fun, got some folk to it...lots of desert grooves, another great summer cd

<li>Down - II

<li>Black Label Society - 1919 Eternal

<li>Halfway to Gone - Second Season

<li>Queens of the Stone Age - Songs for the Deaf

<li>Abdullah - Graveyard Poetry Rock, metal, doom and one of the best rock singers out there!

<li>Grand Magus - s/t Has the singer from Spiritual Beggars, just some fucking no-holds-barred rock n roll. All killer, no filler.
</ul>

Taking Back Sunday - Tell All Your Friends, poppy but really good band from LI

Coheed and Cambria - Second Stage Turbine Blade, this album is fantastic, its a concept album that tells a story from beginning to end and the singer has a really unique voice.

Finch - What it is to Burn, I've probably listened to this 100 times.

Embrace (Re-Mastered) - s/t, added 2 alternative tracks to the great 1987 album

the breeders new album is great.
the strokes too

"Love & Theft" by Dylan. :-D

finch-what it is to burn rocks my cock.

is the system of a down album this year or last?...
also, the hoobastank album.

SOAD was last year, so was the strokes

i am so bad & so picky with what i listen to. i really can't think of anything that great that came out this year.

the best thing i bought this year was the queen of the damned soundtrack. but it's def. got its weak points.

Finch - What it is to Burn is my favorite of the year thus far

also the TBS and coheed albums that sleeper mention rule
