I don't have a list, but I just picked up Beth Orton's album, and I love it so far after maybe half a dozen listens.

None!
<img src="http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/images/4.5.gif"
Also none...
<img src="http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/images/4.gif"
The Streets - A Grand Don't Come for Free (picked it up to hype myself for their new release...)
The Streets - Hardest Way to Make an Easy Living (...which I've been playing back to back with this ever since)
<img src="http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/images/3.5.gif"
The Elected - Sun, Sun, Sun (I loved it, but don't play it much anymore)
Jenny Lewis with the Watson Twins - Rabbit Fur Coat (ditto)
Cat Power - The Greatest (really REALLY love a few songs... but just a few)
<img src="http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/images/3.gif"
The Strokes - First Impressions of Earth (good, but there's no way I'm sitting through the whole thing)
Arctic Monkeys - Whatever People Say I Am... (I can sit through the whole thing, but I'd be tempted to hit that skip button)
Jack Johnson & Friends - Curious George Soundtrack (great soundtrack, but only a few songs stuck with me... I absolutely love the 3 R's)
<img src="http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/images/2.5.gif"
Imogen Heap - Speak for Yourself (seems like it would do good as a soundtrack to something poppy, but not as easy listening)
<img src="http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/images/2.gif"
None
<img src="http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/images/1.5.gif"
Yellowcard - Lights & Sounds (Why Yellowcard? Why???)

Jesus. It's early May and some people here have already purchased (or maybe just listened to) 150-200 albums that came out this year. That's insane! Some of you guys must be in the industry.

I've purchased 23 albums that came out this year and I feel as if I'm drowning in new music.

I'm at 35 purchased albums for the year, and 3 burned discs given to me by a friend. I get a good discount through my job, but it's still a little scary to look back at the end of the year and see what I spent on music.

My wallet's resting a bit easier at the moment since the next three to four months are essentially devoid of interesting releases for me. No doubt I'll still manage to dig up at least a few interesting discs along the way...

4.5 stars for Snow Patrol's Eyes Open

3.5 stars for Pearl Jam (will probably go up to 4 with repeated listenings)

2.5 for RHCP Stadium Arcadium (they should have just made a single disc with the best songs).

Depends on where you live/are? It didn't come out in the U.S. until this year, even though it was released in the UK last year. It's that lovely 6 months to a year gap between the time an artist breaks on one coninent and another, also depening on which they originated from.

Lots of UK bands - Muze, Placebo, Elbow, Starsailor, Feeder (the latest albums from the last two of which still haven't been released in the US) - didn't even get their albums released over here until a year after their original in their country of origin.

And sometimes, well a lot actually, it even happens within the same continent. There are many Canadian releases that don't hit the U.S. for quite sometime, either - and many, not at all.
