happy to hear another matt mays fan on the board ATY! i've seen them close to 30-40 times and they always rock!
the latest album was released in march of 2005, but the debut was released a couple of years ago.

bonavista2005

the album that i was most pleased/shocked about was the new rolling stones record. a bigger bang

i've been a stones fan for years and this told me that i should continue being

for anyone who doesn't have it yet i would seriously make the effort to at least try to give it a listen. borrow it or buy it. i went in listening, expecting a bad feeling, and came out absolutely blown away. shocked the hell out of me.

too bad about their ticket prices though

albums i've recently bought in the last week that are good and i have not had a chance to digest-

Memoman

1. Z - My Morning Jacket : By Faaaar, this album blew me away and changed my life, it renewed my fate in today's music and musicians!

2. Antics - Interpol : Never heard such an elegant rocking album.

3. Out Of Exile - Audioslave : Harbors some true classics in it, what a powerful rocking record, finally RATM and Soundgarden merged!

(ooh ooh... just saw it on the post above, "I'm wide awake and it's morning - bright eyes", honour mention to them, and to Spoon for Gimme Fiction, and to Franz Ferdinand on their last too, not top three only because I just got them, they need to warm up a bit more into me, but they're getting there.)
