Three great releases three weeks in a row.

R.E.M. today

J. Mascis on March 15

The Strokes on March 22

Seriously, I don't know if I've ever been this excited about new music coming out back to back to back. 2011 is looking to be a great year musically.

    Just ordered the new Dropkick Murphys too. Their song "Peg O' My Heart" is stuck in my head. See if you recognize a Mr. Springsteen on backup vocals.

  • this year has potential to be one of a kind ---
    Foo FIghters, Eddie, REM, Soundgarden (maybe), 311, Ben Harper, Strokes, World Fire Brigade (new band with brett scallions of Fuel), Seether, Pearl Jam(maybe) all with new records. I'm sure I'm missing an enormous amount too.
    PJ - 36
    EV - 5
    (**Letterman'02, Irving Plaza, Storytellers, Beacon, ACL, Spectrum 3&4, Bridge School '10**)

  • last year was pretty amazing. in mid april last year, on the same day, LCD soundsystem and Broken social scene leaked. Exactly a week later, foals, black keys, minus the bear, band of horses, the national, and gaslight anthem all leaked on the same day. a mere 2 days after that new pornos leaked
