Most Anticipated Albums of 2008.

2007 was a great year for music. At least in my perspective, and now we all eagerly await new releases from our favorite bands, and also bank on the vast albums from new and exciting artists. Here are some in particular I cant wait to get my hands on and share with you.

My Morning Jacket - They say it is very gospel inspired, when I first heard that I cringed a little. But then i quickly remembered this is Jim "God Damn" James, and whatever he and Two Tone Tommy and the rest of the gang do will always be welcomed in my ears.

Midlake - The band I cant stop talking about. I still cant believe how often I listen to The Trials Of Van Occupanther, I was stunned to hear that it was recorded in the singers living room.

Stephen Malkmus - Although I already have heard and shared this album, I still havent gotten through it, Malkmus' stuff usually takes me a few listens if not more to totally comprehend the designed anarchy of his songs.

She & Him - Have some of the demos up on here. Like all these artists anything M Ward touches I will buy.

The Black Keys - This will be the first record they have done in a proper studio, with producer Danger Mouse.

Ben Kweller - Sometimes his lyrics are a little to silly and childish, I still catch myself getting really into his stuff.

Broken Social Scene - Havent heard much, but I dont really need to I am already excited

Ryan Adams - I havent heard anything, but just 1 album a year from him is a minimum.

Bob Dylan - Have heard rumors, hope their true.

If there are any you think I have left out, be sure to write your list in the comments.
