2010 is shaping up to be a HUGE year in music. Below I’ve compiled the collective knowledge of forthcoming records that I’m looking forward to. If some information or a band is missing, feel free to drop that in the comments. I’ll make a point to keep this current, and link it on the index whenever I update it.

CAKE is offering, to those on their mailing list, exclusive ringtones lifted from their upcoming album. They’re only 40-second clips, but it’s a glimpse of what’s in store when CAKE’s new album is eventually (fingers crossed) released sometime later this year. Below is the one titled ‘Federal Funding‘. I’ll do my best to track down the rest.
