Release the Hounds! Best New Music of 2007

Wow. I am floored. In a span of just weeks, there are 3 great new albums coming out from each of my favorite young and underrated bands. Here is the rundown of each band's new album release. I have included some helpful links for you to get to know these bands and what these new LP's sound like.
