December 30, 2012 at 2:54AM EST Reply to CommentWhere's My Bloody Valentine? They just announced they finally finished a new album that was just mastered. Their new record is far more important than the rest of these pop jabronis and some has-been rapper who had lost relevancy 15 years ago.
Dave Eminem is hardly a has-been, he's still a better rapper than most out there today. That said, My Bloody Valentine is clearly the most important release of 2013. If it actually comes out.
December 30, 2012 at 4:21AM ESTJesse Ur an idiot my bloody valentine is such a juvenile band. At least eminem makes music that is relatable for almost anyone. So stfu if you know nothing about rap or hip hop
December 30, 2012 at 12:27PM ESTSteven Flores @Dave-I wasn't referring to Eminem. I was talking about the guy whose 99% of fans were high heels. Eminem still has it.
December 30, 2012 at 4:11PM EST@Jesse-You obviously have no taste at all so thank you for your irrelevant opinion jabroni.
Ricardo lmfao are you serious? WHO??? You really excepted this irrelevant band to be on the anticipated list?
December 30, 2012 at 10:46PM ESTDave ah cool, wasn't sure which rapper you were referring to. anyway I'd love for My Bloody Valentine to be on a list like this, but they're most likely going to fly under the radar until they actually release the new album, and even then they'll probably continue flying under the radar since it's been 20+ years since Loveless. It is a shame some retards think of MBV as irrelevant though
December 30, 2012 at 11:00PM ESTSteven Flores @Ricardo-They have more relevance to music than any of the bullshit you and your boyfriend Alberto del Rio listens to.
December 30, 2012 at 11:21PM ESTBrian @Steven Flores My Bloody Valentine sucks big time. Lady Gaga's new album is far more important than those talentless fucks.
December 31, 2012 at 6:06AM ESTSteven Flores @Brian-Oh please. Lady Gaga is nothing more than a wannabe version of Grace Jones. If Wendy O. Williams was still alive, she would see Lady Gaga and rape her to the point where Gaga will end her career for good and admit that everything she does is a bunch of bullshit.
December 31, 2012 at 4:28PM ESTMarisa I know your not talking about eminem ... He never fell off - never will . Your dissing eminem but waiting for MCR new album ? You need to re-evaluate your life !
January 12, 2013 at 8:22PM ESTAnnonymus Not relevent? F@$&! U dumb ass
January 24, 2013 at 10:20PM ESTYou dont no shiznit mother fucker
anonomous Eminem is clearly the most inportant release more are waiting for his than any other
January 26, 2013 at 8:42AM ESTAnon Miley Cryrus doesn't deserve this. My Bloody Valentine is far above her. As for Eminem, I'm personally very excited.

December 30, 2012 at 3:13AM EST Reply to CommentThe only albums I'm looking forward to for 2013 are Pura Vida Conspiracy by Gogol Bordello, Oddfellows by Tomahawk and Nanobots by They Might Be Giants.

December 30, 2012 at 9:22AM EST Reply to CommentWhere's the new Beyoncé or the new M.I.A. release on the list? Kelis and Erykah Badu drop in 2013 also.
KT Not that I'm surprised it didn't make the list, but Liam Gallagher's Beady Eye sophomore album also comes out. Their debut was quite good and they've stepped up production with TV on Radio producer Dave Sitek. It's my most looked forward to album.
December 30, 2012 at 9:50AM ESTPlus he's still the best lead singer around.

December 30, 2012 at 7:27PM EST Reply to CommentWhere the fuck is M.I.A.? Oh and fuck Lady Gaga. Anyone with a brain knows her album will suck like BTW. She put all her limited eggs in one basket with Fame Monster.
Brian @MU Fuck you and fuck M.I.A !! Who the fuck cares about that talentless hack??? Anyone with a brain knows that her new album will suck like all of her albums. She put all her limited eggs in one basket with Kala. Anyone with a brain knows that Lady Gaga's new album will be amazing. It will be the best album of 2013.
December 31, 2012 at 5:56AM ESTKenny Brian you should do your bloody homework and actually start to listen to MUSIC instead of thinking that the failed hocus pocus show that Lady Gaga is trying put out there is of relevance in revolutionary music. That soft matter in your skull isn't working properly if you say M.I.A. her music sucks and Lady Gaga's music is good.. M.I.A. has been receiving critically acclaim for her album Kala from people that have much more knowledge about the necessity of quality and diversity in music then you will probably have. If you're a little monster... then go ahead and continue wasting your time

December 30, 2012 at 8:51PM EST Reply to CommentDefinitely waiting for My Bloody Valentine and Eminem album, hated Gaga's last album but her next one sounds promising. Where's Indicud though? Cudi's been on a role
Brian WTF, You hated Gaga's Born This Way album??? you can't be serious. It's her best album yet. you're gonna love her next album. It sounds amazing.
December 31, 2012 at 6:00AM ESTKT
December 31, 2012 at 12:04AM EST Reply to CommentBesides the new Beady Eye album, yes the new Kid Cudi album should be phenomenal along with the follow up to Deltron 3030 from Del, Dan the Automator and Kid Koala. Those two rap albums are destined to be much better than Eminem.

December 31, 2012 at 6:10AM EST Reply to Comment@Dave My Bloody Valentine "is clearly the most important release of 2013"?????? LMFAO! You're joking right??? Lady Gaga's new album is clearly the most important release of 2013.
Dave not sure why I'm arguing since Lady Gaga's album will probably have hundreds of millions of listeners and the new MBV will have less than half of that, but you're talking some mad smack son. and ignoring MBV for a minute, I can think of at least five albums coming out this year that will be better than Lady Gaga

January 3, 2013 at 1:30PM EST Reply to CommentExcuse me but why is Katy Perry, Lady kookoo and Miley Cyrus (!) in the list of most anticipated albums of 2013, while the one that has such refreshing talents and diverse taste in music as JANELLE MONAE is not? An absolute disgrace, but then again it confirms that the commercial music industry has totally lost it when it comes to quality music.
Mark my words however, The Archandroid by Janelle Monae was considered as one of the best album of 2010, by both music critics and lovers of quality music alike, and so will The Electric Lady in 2013.
Hey Katy Perry is awesome. I don't even have a clue as to who Janelle Monae is. Katy Perry broke a record with one album. She is incredible. Take your butt hurt ass away from here.
March 25, 2013 at 6:30PM ESTKenny You're so right
March 29, 2013 at 5:33AM ESTYour choice of mediocrity : http://www.metacritic.com/music/teenage-dream/katy-perry
Against my choice of excellence: http://www.metacritic.com/music/the-archandroid/janelle-monae
It doesn't matter whose more known, it matters which music is more daring, unique sounding and creative.
But I don't blame you for your ignorance.. must have something to do with the people you hang around with, the way you've been raised or just your will to follow trends and look no further ;)

January 13, 2013 at 6:25PM EST Reply to CommentThe most anticipated album of the year is without a doubt Em's, any fan of music with half a brain cell could tell you he's a lyrical genius. He's had university professors write papers on his skill and how complex his rhymes are. He takes shit to a whole new level and executes every verse with a deadly sting that can't be matched by any pathetic excuse for an artist put out there today. Shady records is a label that stands high above all with back bones like interscope and aftermath it makes him untouchable and therefore able to unleash his expertly trained hip hop assassins onto the world for years to come.
Taylor I was skimming the comments and as far as I can tell your the only one here with a brain.
January 15, 2013 at 10:44PM ESTEminems music is Some of the greatest stuff the world has seen.
Eminem deserves to be mentioned with people such as Elvis, The Beatles, and Micheal Jackson. Some of the biggest people in music history, and Eminem is up there with them.
