Of recent vintage, I couldn't wait for the Winery Dogs record and now I can't wait for their next one!!!

I was thinking about this question and I don't really remember anticipating the release of any particular record but In Through The Out Door would be an exception. I vaguely remember Presence coming out, but I was pretty young. When In Through The Out Door came out I was a real rock and roller and that was the first- and the last- Zeppelin album that came out "in my time".

For me, any time one of my favorite artists is going to release an album I get kinda excited for it.

I thought everyone was like that

Dave Navarro's solo album. mid/late '90's before all the reality shows, you never really heard him enough to know he was kind of a dope.
It was terrible. I remember being mad that this album probably got green-lighted at the expense of a better album by someone without the name recognition.

When I was at my record buying peak there wasn't an Internet. You didn't have all this information about what was coming out. One day I'd walk into Record City and the record was just there. Or maybe you heard about something coming out on the radio. They usually had a single before the album came out. But I don't remember waiting for anything with bated breath. Like I said, maybe that Zeppelin album.

Some Girls was hyped pretty big before it was released, but I didn't appreciate the Stones as much then as I would come to later on. And it had been a relatively long time between records for the Stones at that point. I think Black and Blue was at least a couple years earlier. An album a year was pretty standard for bands at that time. Hell, I think Mott the Hoople released four albums in two years at one point. Four albums might be an entire career for a band now. Or in the alternative, you've got guys like Bob Pollard or later career Westerberg or the Songs: Ohia guy who just threw everything out there and let the fans sort that shit out.

Also, now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure I was excited about The Wall before it came out.

Awake is great album. The Mirror and A Mind Beside Itself are aces.

Unfortunately (or unfortunately depending on your tastes) Kevin Moore left after the recording.

It really is a good album. Way too rare that albums are as good as anticipated these days.

squarepusher's ultravisitor in 2004 was a big one for me cuz not only did he drop menelec as "squarepusher - untitled.mp3" on soulseek months and months earlier, but then one guy on the board who knows the jenkinsons and richard (aphex) started dropping clips of the good songs like tetra-sync and i was hyped. i ended up getting it early on a whim and was kind of like OMFG IM ACTUALLY LISTENING TO THIS.

obviously last year finding out there was a new aphex twin album (first proper aphex twin album in ~13yrs) was !!!! but it all happened real quick like there were posts on 4chan claiming new afx in sept and by the time august came around there was an aphex blimp in london and it was confirmed and then it was out shortly thereafter, so i didnt have a big ol hype chamber going on.

right now there's a new squarepusher LP coming out but the 2 i've heard are.... ok i spose. you know what i'm really excited for tho?

Seven years ago last Friday, I was really hyped about the release of In Rainbows because it was my first new release as a Radiohead fan (got into them in 2004, I missed HTTT) and because the pay-what-you-want model was such a big deal. Getting my download and listening to it together with the rest of the Radiohead-liking world was about as special a communal experience as you're going to get with the internet. Unfortunately, I wound up being very disappointed with most of the album, except for "All I Need" and "Reckoner," and even then I pegged "All I Need" as a ripoff of Boards of Canada's "Roygbiv" on the first listen. I knew "Arpeggi" and "Videotape" from bootlegs, and hated the way they came out in the studio: the former stopped being an ethereal ballad, and the latter stopped being a full-band song. Years later, I've come to terms with it a little better, but I still think it the hype was way bigger than the album. Still, it was what we call A Thing.

I forgot about KID A....was definitely looking forward to that one after the OK Computer greatness.

so CH, would you believe that back in the early 00s some kid was doing a high school project and somehow up and contacted/e-mailed BOC (prolly through music70) like "hey i want to use roygbiv for this project but it's not long enough do you have an extended version?" and they responjded like "sure" and gave him this and their whole legacy continued.

it meshes with cloudDEAD's story about playing a festival in scotland and after doing their set they're approached by two unassuming guys like "hey we're boards of canada and we like you guys.... can we do a remix?" that's how this came into existence.

Even though they kinda dropped out of the blue, m b v and Songs Of Innocence were well worth the wait.

Metropolis Part II: Scenes from a Memory is a most wanted album as well.

That was well, well, well worth the wait.

i like that it's a challenge in some respects, not to dredge up The Knife, but Shaking the Habitual was like that...a 90 minute or so album with some difficult sections....but those are the kind of albums that reward you in the end as you might notice something on the 104th listen that you never heard before . constantly unfolding, and requires your complete attention

Tonight I just happened to stumble on a YT vid of them at Sonisphere, and I remembered someone mentioned them in this thread.
I suppose I've heard all 3 of these guys in one incarnation or another, but I was a bit blown away by this.
The only thing I knew about Kotzen is that he fucked one of the members of Poison.
Had no idea he could sing.
Like Chris Cornell, or Ian Thornley.
Drummer is from Dream Theater, which I know almost nothing about.
But that was the bass player in DLR's solo band, I think.
Personally, I think this video is kinda awesome.

I’m surprised no one has mentioned Chinese Democracy!

Mine has to be Metallica’s Black album.

As a longtime fan, I was all too familiar with their less than stellar production quality. I knew who Bob Rock as I love The Cult’s “Sonic Temple” and the s/t Kingdom Come debut. While I had no idea their sound would change so drastically, I was really excited to hear them release an album that SOUNDED good.

I wasn’t disappointed. I’ll always prefer their earlier work, but bands do need to progress and avoid re-hashing the same garbage. To this day, I think it’s a great sounding record with great songs.
