I've been keeping track of a lot of my favorite music artists and movies being made, and it looks like 2005 is going to be one of the most "saturated" years in a long time in terms of new albums and flicks. And in case anyone has similar interests, I shall demonstrate:

Moby - Hotel (Its out...I don't really like it, but theres a few acceptable tracks, and at least he finally put something out)
The Crystal Method - Community Service II (I hated the first one, but I've previewed all the tracks and this is going to be the best release since Tweekend, IMHO.)
Rammstein - Reise Reise (came out late 2004, but new singles with excellent remixes are still coming out into 2005)
Insane Clown Posse - The Calm (I've been disappointed with everything they've released since Jeckel Brothers, and this probably won't be an exception, but I couldn't leave it out. :))
Garbage - Bleed Like Me (While not as good as some of my favorites of theirs, I like the new single, and the album shows a lot of promise.)
Twiztid - Man, Myth, and Mutant (These guys are way more skilled than anyone on Psychopathic Records, and with the amazing release of Green Book, I'm really looking forward to this one more than any other ICP or their cohorts stuff)
Nine In Nails - With Teeth (The new single is not bad, though while not as good as old skool NiN, it too sounds promising.)
Daft Punk - Human After All (I'm not a big fan of theirs outside the few big hits, and this album is horrible IMHO, but I know some people will like it. :))
Paul Oakenfold - The Club (Perfecto) (Well, he still hasn't put out a freakin album since Bunkka, but hey, I can always use another good set...this one's out, but I haven't heard it yet. If its anything as good as what I heard when I saw him live last late-summer, it'll be pretty good.)

Other than that...I know I'm missing a few. Seems like the jungle scene has been tapering down a lot, and even Dieselboy has been lacking in anything new. Post some of your favorites and I'll add em to the list if you wish.

As for movies...heh...other than almost every single movie is a sequel or based off a previously established concept, a lot of good movies are coming out this year.

Star Wars - Episode III: Revenge of the Sith (Oh. My. God.)
Chronicles of Narnia (hey, might be interesting.)
Batman Begins
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (Finally.)
King Kong
DOOM (Don't get me started.)
...and the list goes on.

I dunno, I guess I'm just impressed with the "roster" this year. Looks pretty damn impressive. And I guess I felt the need to post about it, for no reason in particular. :D

w00t!

Only one from your list I am looking forward to.

everything on the list is everything you see on MTV, which means Carson Daily has somehow touched it, which means its all sh!t.

I was hoping you wern't referring to the horrific, pathetic news media, sensationalizing crap like Michael Jackson's trial and the tube feeder veggie

Anyone know where I can listen to the new Queens of the Stone Age album? I need to hear more before I buy. I heard a few new tunes on FUSE.
