I don't have a lot in the way of up-and-coming band news, which is something I know I could work on a bit. But, I am still obligated to let you all in on some very good news. Yesterday, December 6, 2011, saw the release of the latest Black Keys album. I'm sure this is no surprise to most, because it has been well-hyped, if only for a little while pre-release. I did my fair share of hyping for this album, too--this is the gazillionth El Camino-related post I've made in about a month.
Although the Black Keys deserve all the hype (their album is great), this post is not about them. It is about several other established bands that have announced new albums in the past few days.
Tennis: Young and Old, February 14, 2012
Of Montreal: Paralytic Stalks, February 7, 2012
AIR: Le Voyage Dans La Lune, February 6, 2012
Sleigh Bells: Reign of Terror, February 14, 2012
School of Seven Bells: Ghostory, February 28, 2012
Miike Snow: TBA, 2012
Andrew Bird: Break It Yourself, March 6, 2012
Animal Collective: TBA, 2012?
Islands: A Sleep And A Forgetting, February 14, 2012
Lana Del Rey: Born 2 Die, January 30, 2012
This list is by no means all-inclusive, but ALL of these artists are definitely worth keeping your eyes on. I'll keep you up to date here and will post links to songs and albums streams, where available, in the very near future.
