1. One of mine comes out tomorrow

And that's Red Hot Chili Peppers "Stadium Arcadium" - and I reserve slots for the new Iron Maiden album, new Voivod, and hopefully new Skindred due out later this year.

Other than that:

Tool- 10,000 Days
Ministry - Rio Grande Blood (kinda surprised it hasn't been praised here yet, as it's pretty much a bush-bashing theme album)
Killing Joke - Hosannas from the Basement of Hell
Devin Townsend - Synchestra
Matisyahu - youth

That's 9, since you have 11.

2. In honor of Spinal Tap you should get the Mighty Wind soundtrack

The trio's back as The Folksmen...It's hard to get the joke considering how good they are at being folkies. :P

3. OK, so now I definitely have to get Built to Spill's new one.

I've been a fan for a long time; other reviews I've read are positive. Thanks! Oh - and it's nice to see Alejandro Escovedo on the list, I've seen him live in Austin; and a long time ago with the True Believers. :hi:
