Well, after the dreary lameness of the summer, September more than delivered on the music front. This past month seemed flooded with great albums, peaking with the two new 2009 Favorites entries, Wild Beasts and Raekwon. Finally, I had some rap to write about and, finally, there was some British indie rock that didn’t make me want to claw my ears away to nothingness. September: a success!
After last month’s retro-grading upheaval, I’ve got nothing I want to go back and edit. Give me time, though. Who knows how my mind could change…
The fall months are here and the album release schedule seems to be ramping itself up, as artists make one final push to get on the obligatory “Best Albums Of The Year” lists that should start cropping up any day now. Here’s what I plan on reviewing for October: A Place To Bury Strangers, Alec Ounsworth of Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Built To Spill, Editors, The Flaming Lips, Julian Casablancas of The Strokes, Mission Of Burma, The Mountain Goats, a compilation album by Nick Cave and Warren Ellis, The Roots, Weezer, Yo La Tengo and, finally, Bad Lieutenant, a new band from the people who gave the world New Order. Sounds great to me!
