Wow, this album is so good it blows me away... He has such a great sense of humor on top of his immense talent! "It makes me want to feel like a teenager, a real life emotional teenager"

Great move by The National, I have a feeling they will only keep getting better...
Friend and FoeFriend and Foe by Menomena
Buy new: $13.99 / Used from: $5.81
I love these little albums that come out of nowhere and are so good, I find a couple each year it seems. I'm horrible at genre defining but ill call it electro-pop?

Growing, Maturing, it's great

A happy warm wonderful Wilco album

Good News wasn't bad in my humble opinion, but this album is so much better.
Pocket SymphonyPocket Symphony by Air
Buy new: $13.99 / Used from: $2.94
Not bad... but come on Air! Moon & Talkie are 2 of my most cherished albums... This seems bland by comparison
Some Loud ThunderSome Loud Thunder by Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
Buy new: $13.98 / Used from: $3.08
Drastic change in direction, many more layers to wade through. "Satan Said Dance" is amazing though

The lead singer of Broken Social Scene backed by Broken Social Scene... If you like BSS you'll like this
New MoonNew Moon by Elliott Smith
Buy new: $14.99 / Used from: $8.99
This is one of the few after-death collections I feel isnt just grave robbing, lots of great music
AndorraAndorra by Caribou
Buy new: $13.99 / Used from: $7.99
Cool vibe, kind of 60's sounding...
The ReminderThe Reminder by Feist
Buy new: $11.99 / Used from: $6.15
I feel dumb singing "My Moon My Man"... but I still do
MirroredMirrored by Battles

Like nothing ive ever heard before! A breath of fresh robotic air
Our Love to AdmireOur Love to Admire by Interpol
Buy new: $14.99 / Used from: $4.75
Not bad, Interpol sit very close to the edge of becoming something very special or burning out completely
