A bunch of good bands have stuff in the works. Tool, A Perfect Circle, Audioslave, and Red Hot Chili Peppers are my favourite bets right now.
Unless Metallica did something drastically different I don't think I'm going to even touch their new CD with a ten foot pole. I heard some of Live's new stuff at the Nickleback concert, and to be honest it sounds like a lot of tone-downed, for the teeny-boppers type of music. Which is kind of sad since Live did have a nice little thing going on there.
If you're a fan of Jane's Addiction I remember hearing about them releasing a greatest hits, which isn't exactly new music, but hey new album non the less.
Personally I'm excited for the Audioslave and RHCP releases since that gives me a remote chance of seeing them in concert, with the remote chance that they stop in Calgary...it's all very remote.
