Given the amount of music and the availability of it, I would say this is shaping up to be another great era of music. Also, I've got promo copies of some highly anticipated albums, including California by Blink-182, The Getaway by Red Hot Chili Peppers (which released last week), Magma by Gojira, and a few others. Gotta love having friends who work for music magazines. RHCP's new album is really damn good. A lot better than Monarchy of Roses. Possibly better than Stadium Arcadium (which I personally think is an overrated album). I'll give more impressions/opinion/short reviews if anyone is interested.
