Well, in the next few months (or at least I hope, some dates are TBD), albums from a lot of my favorite artists are going to be coming out. Anberlin, Underoath, Norma Jean, Ben Rector, Mute Math, and so many more are due to release new cds in the next few months. I figure I will run through a few of these albums in the next couple days and explain why I want them so much. One or two albums every few days should get my list done pretty quick. The way I see it, my number of albums bought this summer could be around the 20 mark, which is way more than I think I should ever spend on cd's. But anyway, just be on the look out over the next week for new albums I'm excited for (not that anyone really cares, but whatever).
Underoath, Lost in the Sound of Separation
Define The Great Line was one of my favorite cds for a long time after it came out. It showed that Underoath could make it back to their more metal roots and get further away from the screamo genre that They’re Only Chasing Safety put them in. Not to say TOCS was bad, it was great too. It’s just I think Underoath does a better job outside of this genre. From what I hear about Lost in the Sound of Separation, it seems that they are going even deeper into a darker, harder sound. From the one song I have heard, Desperate Times Desperate Measures, they are doing just that. The album drops September 2, and I have to rate this at least top 5 most anticipated albums of the year.

I like underoath's music, but I'm a little upset with the direction they went after they came out saying that they were a "Christian" band with a mainstream label. That's always a risky move, but they failed miserably. I feel like they lost their vision to bring others to christ through their behavior and attitudes. I feel like that's a huge reason why aaron gillespie decided to go ahead with the almost (who are pretty much straight up savs). My opinion is that very soon he will leave underoath because he isn't pleased with the spiritual state of the bandmembers and that he believes he can have a greater impact with heading up the almost. (who are way better than underoath)
