With the recent Raconteurs news and yesterday’s surprise Gnarls album(!), I thought I’d throw out a few other quick updates of those bands getting ready to release albums (likely in preparation for the summer touring season.
Coldplay-The new album is getting a Spanish title: Viva La Vida, from a painting by Mexican painter Frida Kahlo.
Mates of State-With a tour announcement likely coming soon, Rearrange Us should be out on May 20.
The Roots-Though political, Roots drummer ?uestlove says the album is not a downer. Cover art and details here.
Ryan Adams-The young gentleman is working on what he calls a “second draft” of his new album, expected later this year. Check out a blog written by Adams charting his experiences.
Kylie Minogue-With iTunes, amazon.com, and other internet-based music-purchasing sites, it is strange that there are different continental releases these days. Nevertheless, Kylie will be releasing her latest album, X, in the US this spring.
