Looking for new music from old favorites

I've been hungry lately for new music from some of my old favorites. For the most part, I'll be waiting for awhile.

Garbage is doing a best of album, and at the moment there is no word whether or not they'll record anything new any time soon. The best of has a new single, but I haven't heard it yet.

Dido is on track for a new album in September, thank God. She's on the three-year Garbage schedule. Life For Rent was a great album, that I found especially useful after the separation. The song "See The Sun Again" more than any other song resonates with my feelings in those summer and fall months of 2005. I especially love the live version. She is such a good song writer.

Jem is allegedly working on something new, but no release dates set for that one. She had a single from the Eragon soundtrack last year.

Mute Math isn't an old favorite, but they did the Transformers theme for the movie. That'll be sweet.

I haven't heard about Alanis doing anything new, but did see a picture of her with bangs lately that was hot.

Of course, most of these are artists I've been listening to lately. If I back up into the playlists a couple of years there are others I miss and don't even realize it. Music is the fabric of our lives. (Take that, cotton!)

You don't know me but, read your blog from coasterbuzz. Try a new cd from a group called Melee. "Devils and Angels" has a 80's flair to it. Nice clean rock with some great melodies and bass lines. You may like it. Good luck. Might be my favorite CD this summer so thus far.
