Not that this site is the definitive be all end all of news .. but there is a LOT of music I like on that list
I'm intersted in hearing Colin Meloy (decemberists) and Chris Walla (Death Cab) and their solo stuff.

Black Crowes
Steven Malkmus
DeVotchKa
The Kills
REM
Autolux
Blur
Coldplay (you know how I know I'm gay ... I like Coldplay)

Oasis
Guns N' Roses-Chinese Democracy
Metallica
Dr Dre-Detox
Zach De La Rocha
Only Metallica and Oasis are guaranteed to actually release albums this year though. Chinese Democracy is the only album I really care about but I'll listen to those other albums while I continue to wait.
my 2008 started with me buying in rainbows. because tis such a fine album im gonna quit while im ahead and not buy any new music for the remainder of the year.
but of course if the drones decide to honour us with something new then i shall renege on my previous resolution.
hear my name
take a good look
this could be the day
hold my hand
lie beside me
i just need to say
I'm looking forward to the black crowes, Metallica and U2. I'm mildly interested in REM, MMJ and Counting Crows. Who knows, maybe there will be a few diamonds in the rough.
Looking at that list, Noel Gallagher is listed among the anticipated releases. Is it true he is working on solo stuff? Being a hug Oasis fan I would be very interested in that
All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow
They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all

No, thats a bunch of nonsense. He wont release a solo album because he is too lazy and doesnt have enough songs.

Is the Neil Young archive set still supposed to hit the streets in 2008??
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.
Some of you are way too positive about the music industry.
No, some of us just branch out a bit with our tastes. I don't mean to sound like an elitist asshole but there has never been a bad year for music. Just look harder. There is more to music than Oasis and The Vines. There's no reason why you shouldn't be excited about those albums but there's no reason why you shouldn't find other stuff to listen to. It's not just indie either. There is a world of music out there.

There is tons of average stuff out there, most of the people here are listing average band after average band.

I didn't say that the stuff mentioned in this thread was good. I said that there is tons of good music out there. I don't listen to any of the stuff in this thread, that isn't all there is out there. I am not particularly excited about any of the releases mentioned here but I'm still not despairing for 2008.

That would be my guess as well. I guess it should have said Oasis

I wouldnt even be surprised if the new Oasis record wasnt released yet this year.

Supposedly. But the latest twist is that it won't be on CD at all. DVD/Blue-Ray only.

It's either completely brilliant or crazy. Or both. Which would be just like Neil.
