Get Myself Into It

According to Metacritic Upcoming CD releases:

12 Sep Tuesday

Basement Jaxx - Crazy Itch Radio
DJ Shadow - The Outsider
Junior Boys - So This Is Goodbye
Magnolia Electric Co. - Fading Trails
The Rapture - Pieces Of The People We Love
Justin Timberlake - FutureSex/LoveSounds
TV On The Radio - Return To Cookie Mountain
Yo La Tengo - I Am Not Afraid Of You And I Will Beat Your Ass

Is this even real. An artist's rendition of Logan's wallet on Sept. 13.

Inexplicably, The Rapture's Pieces Of The People We Love has yet to leak (at least to my knowledge). To give you some perspective, the new TV On The Radio, which has the same domestic release date, was on the internet NINE months ago. The Rapture's new website has five samples to tease us with -- and they all sound ace. [A bonus 5,000 points to the first person to find my photo in the montage.]

Can we also talk about Johnny Marr joining Modest Mouse?

2006 is shaping up.

Yeah. That was less of a "Logan's going to buy that shit" as it was a "Man, that day is loaded."

Still I like Timbaland and I am curious to hear how the CD lives up to the last one.

I am going to have an aneurysm. Future Sex/Love Sounds leaked a couple of hours ago (you can find it without too much effort).

BUT WHERE IS MY RAPTURE?

Thank God the Rapture finally leaked. I can sleep again at night. On first listen it is a solid listen -- but I feel like it is going to be trashed by critics who will be busy giving all the credit of Echoes to DFA. Nothing as stand out as House of Jealous Lovers, but at least it is properly sequenced.

But the Rapture have some stiff competition this year. The new Roots and TV on the Radio are absolutely fantastic.

And I guess there is a new IMA Robot on Sept. 12 as well.

2006, it looks, is a grower not a shower.
