10 New Albums to Check Out This Fall

The crop of new music in the coming months looks a little stronger than the first part of the year. So far, we have not had a banner year for great music. Excluding American Idol albums, here are ten worth checking out:

New Moon Soundtrack (10/20) - Really? Yes, really. Why? Because it features music from Death Cab for Cutie, Thom Yorke (Radiohead), Bon Iver, Muse, and The Killers, among others.

The Roots (10/20) - The Legendary Roots Crew is back at it with their first CD since taking the Jimmy Fallon gig.

Flight of the Conchords (10/20) -What can I say? It should be big fun.

The Swell Season (10/27) - Remember the Once soundtrack? Glen Hansgard and Marketa Irglova return after basking in Oscar glory.

Michael Jackson Remixes (10/27) - Twelve well-known producers like Paul Oakenfold and the Neptunes remix MJ's classics.

Glee: The Music (11/3) - I predict this will turn out to be an unexpectedly big seller for the fall.

Norah Jones (11/17) - The woman with the beautiful voice is sounding strong on this new CD.

OneRepublic (11/17) - Expect this one to be a huge hit--and a very well-produced album.

Justin Bieber (11/17) - He's hugely talented and he's soon to be the biggest thing since the invention of Hannah Montana among the tween girl set.

John Mayer (11/17) - The multiple Grammy winner's latest should stand out on this very big day of album releases.
