Crooning lovely Swedish voice, playfully ironic lyrics, pop beats.
Strawberry JamStrawberry Jam by Animal Collective
Buy new: $13.99 / Used from: $6.90
Freak out, no guitars, experimental electronic and found percussion, Brian Wilson haunting the vocals, explosions of summer time and winter. Thank you, Animal Collective.

Silver (Extended Edition)Silver (Extended Edition) by Starflyer 59
Buy new: $13.98 / Used from: $5.02
Remastered and explosively personal, all in one. Jason Martin's first shoegaze attempt that doesn't get old.
Lola versus Powerman and the Money-Go-Round, Part OneLola versus Powerman and the Money-Go-Round, Part One by The Kinks
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $6.92
Yes, sirs and ladies. Ray Davies sings about Apemen and Powermen. Catchy, pop from before pop was rock.
Greetings from Michigan: The Great Lake StateGreetings from Michigan: The Great Lake State by Sufjan Stevens
Buy new: $14.98 / Used from: $7.24
I've change my vote. Vito's Ordination Song puts me over the edge. Chills and banjos.
The Queen Is DeadThe Queen Is Dead by The Smiths
Buy used from: $6.50
Certainly, frankly, angry and cheerful, for rainy and sunny days.
In the Aeroplane Over the SeaIn the Aeroplane Over the Sea by Neutral Milk Hotel
Buy new: $13.99 / Used from: $10.25
Everything and anything mostly comes from this record. Low-fi, well crafted and strangely complete narrative of a record meant to blow the mind and the heart.
AndorraAndorra by Caribou
Buy new: $13.99 / Used from: $7.99
Waves and spray of ocean, 60's meets 2000's, electronic with slight hints of accesible pop. Does that make sense?
If You're Feeling SinisterIf You're Feeling Sinister by Belle & Sebastian
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $3.99
To be honest, if you don't own this record, you are probably stupid. From start to finish, hanging on the edge of my tongue and my toes, songs dislodged from kindergarten that get the finishing touches of grad school sophistication. Stuart's vocals don't leave one wanting.
Presents the Modal LinesPresents the Modal Lines by Jetenderpaul
Buy new: $14.98 / Used from: $0.49
Obscurely wonderful indie pop band from Burnt Toast Vinyl. The Zombies on a Japanese motorcycle, cruising down the PCH.
Let's Get Out of This CountryLet's Get Out of This Country by Camera Obscura
Buy new: $14.98 / Used from: $7.25
This woman's voice sounds exactly the way it is supposed to. Do you know what I mean? Well, you should.
I Can Hear the Heart Beating as OneI Can Hear the Heart Beating as One by Yo La Tengo
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $5.04
New Jersey is not the armpit of America. These guys prove it.
In RainbowsIn Rainbows by Radiohead
Buy new: $9.49 / Used from: $7.49
Thom Yorke did, in fact, let the dogs out.
