    Guilty Pleasure:
    Wolfmother - Wolfmother
    Scissor Sisters - Ta Dah
    Not so guilty there...I think Wolfmother's CD is truly excellent...

    As for Scissor Sisters, I don't have Ta Dah but I've a few things about it. Something about constantly making you shake your ass or something like that.
