    If I could, think I would give in.

    :D !



    Kings of Leon - Because of the Times.. every song is good or great and the band just exceeded every expectation.

    Radiohead - In Rainbows.. another solid release...

    The new Acid Mothers Temple record is great, but I still need to hear the new Afrirampo.
    Come on pilgrim you know he loves you..

    Midlake - Trials of Van Occupanther
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    it's top 5 but Ike Reilly's "We Belong to the Staggering Evening" is one of the best of the decade

    Lots of other threads on this, but again, Arcade Fire's Neon Bible, and there isn't a close second.
    It makes much more sense to live in the present tense.

    i've been saying:

    modest mouse- we were dead before the ship even sank

    but i'm not so sure anymore. it's got stiff competition from the arctic monkeys, bright eyes, silverchair, polyphonic spree, and kanye west.

    Wintersleep- Welcome to the Night Sky
    "I try my best to chug, stomp, weep, whisper, moan, wheeze, scat, blurt, rage, whine, and seduce. With my voice I can sound like a girl, the boogieman, a Theremin, a cherry bomb, a clown, a doctor, a murderer. I can be tribal. Ironic. Or disturbed. My voice is really my instrument."

    -Tom Waits
  • I really like Chris Cornell's new solo album.....and the new Foo's is growing on me everyday!
