More Cowbell has a list of anticipated releases for 2007. It’s a long, long list but some of the names I’m most excited about include: Arcade Fire, Bloc Party, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Doves, Ted Leo, New Pornographers, and Spiritualized.

From left to right: Mint, Truffle, Orange, Candy Cane, Dark, Macadamia Nut, Almond, Coffee, and Cherry Cordial. We have some friends that go to Hershey Park every winter and they are kind enough to hook us up with chocolate straight from the factory.
