there is a nice choice to choose from. I think this has been the best period for new music ,well in my short 16 years on this planet. i think prob the PJ album has to be the best so far, with the new Tool a close second and then Stadium Arcadium third. Some sweet albums coming soon though with Muse and the new Radiohead.
"A Blessing and A Curse" Drive-by Truckers
"Pearl Jam" Pearl Jam
All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a thousand enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.
excluding Pearl Jam so far the best for me is Yeah Yeah Yeah's Show Your Bones
LIVERPOOL FC -18 time League Champions-15 time Charity Shield Holders-7 time League Cup Winners-7 time FA Cup Winners-5 time European Champions-4 time UEFA Cup Winners-3 time European Super Cup Winners-1 time World Super Cup Winners

yeah I'm too biased to not put PJ in there but Show your bones is a great one, also agree with original poster about the strokes, 2 days and I get to see them.

Yeah, definately a great year for music so far. Don't have one favorite in particular but these are all exceptionally strong albums:
Pearl Jam
Neil Young - Living With War
Flaming Lips - At War With the Mystics
Drive By Truckers - A Blessing and a Curse
Jenny Lewis and the Watson Twins - Rabbit Fur Coat
"You're no help," he told the lime. This was unfair. It was only a lime; there was nothing special about it at all. It was doing the best it could.
.......love the new pj, chilis, tool, wolfmother, snow patrol, .
How is that new Snow Patrol record? I almost picked it up w/Stadium Arcadium the other day.
Pretty much everything I bought this year has been great:
Strokes-First Impressions
Yeah Yeah Yeah - Show Your Bones
Pearl Jam
RCHP - Stadium Arcadium
Wolfmother
New Pornographers - Twin Cinema (oh wait I guess that would be 05, but I just purchased it last month)
Hard to pick my favorite from this list, although the New Pornagraphers would probably be at the top if that was released in 06.

Pearl Jam-it took me a while to get there. Otherwise, I would have had to say Josh Rouse's "Subtitulo", which I like substantially more than Wolfmother, Tool, RHCP, Neil (like what he's saying; not how he's saying it), etc.
I am really, really looking forward to The Raconteurs on Tuesday though.
But otherwise, I'd say Tool is the best so far, followed by Motorpsycho and Pearl Jam.
Peace

Pearl Jam - Pearl Jam followed very closely by Mudhoney - Under A Billion Suns. Both are amazing!! I hope the new Sonic Youth is as good as people say it is and equals these.

The new Chili Peppers is awesome, and the new Tool is sweet.
I've yet to listen to the new Goo Goo Dolls, though I just got it today.
