Last I heard Franz Ferdinand was touring and writing songs, and they wanted to get into the studio as soon as possible. Seems awful fast, but in this society people can release one album and make a living off of it for years (*cough*Maroon 5*cough*)... So if that actually happens, that would be cool.
Well, back int' day bands routinely made an album a year. It's a relatively recent phenomenon for bands to take two years between records

Whay are there no Radiohead fans on this forum? I'm hoping for a new release by them
I love Radiohead, but as with the Flaming Lips they're one of those bands where I'm not necessarily on the edge of my seat waiting for their record. It'll come out when it comes out and then I'll buy it

I had high hopes when Pink Floyd played Live 8, but oh well.
You know they wouldn't have lived up to the old days. Live 8 was a fine ending to the Pink Floyd saga to my mind
Anyway, I'm waiting for five records:
- the new Marilyn Manson album
- Current 93's
Black Ships Ate The Sky, which will be doubly sweet as I ordered the subscriber edition, so I get a bonus CD and my name on the thank-you list
- Nurse With Wound's hip-hop album, allegedly called
B**chin' 'n' Bitin' 'n' Pimpin' (Goatherd)
- Scott Walker's rumoured new album
- Portishead's new album
