Hey folks, thanks to every who dropped by and voted last time around. It looks like the Democratic process has decreed that next Tuesday I’ll be reviewing the Kaiser Chief’s second album, Yours Truly, Angry Mob. I’ve just this moment purchased it off of Amazon and shall put it into heavy rotation just as soon as it arrives in my hot little hands.

Also, in case anyone missed it, my review of Low‘s Drums and Guns is up. Link.

Now comes the moment you’ve all been waiting for, the list of candidates for next Tuesday’s purchase, to be reviewed on April 10th. Your options, as presented by Metacritic and augmented by a few choice options from Billboard and TopHitsOnline are:

Jarvis Cocker, Jarvis
Hilary Duff, Dignity
The Field, From Here We Go Sublime
Fountains of Wayne, Traffic and Weather
Kings of Leon, Because of the Times
Ozomatli, Don’t Mess With the Dragon
Partridge-Andrews-Barker Project, Monstrance
Sister Vanilla, Little Pop Rock
Throbbing Gristle, Part Two – The Endless Not
Paul Wall, Get Money– Stay True
Venetian Snares, Pink + Green
Timbaland, Timbaland Presents Shock Value
Chevelle, Vena Sera
Static-X, Cannibal

Cast your votes now!

*One note: I removed the new boxed set of The Wedding Present’s Complete Peel Sessions. Why? Because I don’t want to spend $77 bucks on a bunch of material from a band that I’ve never been that big on. It’s not that I think too many people would vote for it, but on the off chance that they did, I wouldn’t want to let them down by punking out and not getting it. Besides, no one wants to sit through me reviewing 6 discs worth of The Wedding Present.

    You’re kind of lucky that none of your friends like rap, huh? And while Ann only joked about voting for Hillary Duff, I’m doing it. Why? Because I dislike you.

  6. Ann says:

    Hillary Duff… because I want to watch you walk into a store and pick it up and buy it.

  7. Azrael says:

    Chevelle.

  8. The Tarquin says:

    Ann: Your fiendish plot will not work! I shall be saved by the power of Amazon.com, from which I buy all my CDs.

    Azrael: Thanks for the hard rock vote, I much appreciate it.

    Paul: My rage grows daily. One day, my nemesis, I shall rise up and destroy you. One day . . .

    Ann/Sam: New Kings of Leon should be pretty cool. I’m actually pretty new to them, but I like what I’ve heard so far.

  9. Abish says:

    Ozomatli!

    I think you need to grab Hillary Duff, get your picture taken with it, and then drop it as if it were devilspawn. Since thats what she is, and all.

    The Field, From Here We Go Sublime
    Fountains of Wayne, Traffic and Weather
    Kings of Leon, Because of the Times
    Chevelle, Vena Sera

    Those are my pseudo votes. As in, I want you to review all those, and then share. Alternately, if you’re gonna make me choose like the mean person that you are, I vote for Fountains of Wayne. Except that if I vote that, it doesn’t help with making you not need to get Hillary Duff. So really, I have to vote for Kings of leon, because I like them too and strategically they win.

    But I think you should get Fountains of Wayne too, because they’re awesome.

    Hi, I’m Heather, and I comment stream of consciousness style. Yay!

    I like Paul, Ann, and the irony in you reviewing a Hillary Duff album entitled “Dignity.” Heh heh heh.

  13. Josh says:

    I’m voting for Staic X

    Hillary Duff….

    Really, I’m serious…review her.

    Hey, EW gave Hilary Duff’s new album a B+, calling it her best effort yet. Hopefully you’ll agree. And really, it gave the Kings of Leon an A-, so it’s just the differnce between an 89% and a 91%. Looks to be an awesome week.
