Well right now it's a Lisa!

How are you guy's liking the new BoH? I just started getting into them with "Cease to Begin" and am looking forward to getting the new one.

It's my first experience with them, but I like it a lot. But, that's only after about 2 listens, and albums take time with me. I'd put it solidly at 3 starts (out of 4) right now, with the possibility to go up.

Pretty solid record IMO.

In preparation for "Brothers" on May 18th...

The Back Keys + Dan Auerbach + Drummer + Blackroc

I'm searching through my collection to re-visit music I haven't listened to in a long time. I've been enjoying tunes from the late 1980s/early 1990s British band Ride.

So far, I've been giving these albums my undivided attention:

All from yesterday and today...

The New Pornographers - Together
Deftones - Diamond Eyes
West Indian Girl - We Believe
Red Sparowes - The Feer is Excruciating, But Therein Lies the Answer
The Hold Steady - Heaven is Whenever
Rufus Wainwright - All Days Are Nights: Songs for Lulu
Mike Patton - Mondo Cane

Your definition of undivided needs work.

Great time for new music:

Josh Ritter: So Runs the World Away
The National: High Violet
The New Pornographers: Together
Broken Social Scene: Forgiveness Rock Record & Lo Fi For the Dividing Nights

Deradoorian - "Mind Raft" So insanely good, can't wait for the LP. Her DP songs were always the best ones & her solo work is even better.


Yup, thats right, another album of the year contender. One of those albums where when a major lable picks them up & releases the album it will make everyone's top ten list next year. But you should listen to it now because they rule & they are great live.


Derivative as all hell but still very enjoyable.

They are signed to a label, and their album is coming out next week, it's called Treats:



I don't know if that's what you meant or not. I agree with you, they are really great.

Who's that? I like that cover!

The album is Cosmogramma, by Flying Lotus. It's really good.

Wow, thats awesome I had no idea they were even signed let alone have a major new album coming out. I saw them in concert last year & just dug out a CD they were selling at the show. Great band, they will definitely be getting a lot of buzz.

Thanks to David Letterman: Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings I know I'm late to the party but man they're great.

Yeah, I'm really digging it so far . Much better than the new Crystal Castles, to me at least.

I didn't think this was coming out until mid June!

I just checked Amazon and it says mid-June, but M.I.A. (who owns the label Sleigh Bells are signed to), Sleigh Bells' official MySpace page, and all the music sites I go to say May 11. So - I'm not sure.

David Byrne & Fatboy Slim: Here Lies Love

Way Out West: We Love Machine

Apples in Stereo: Travellers in Space & Time

Duke Dumont: FabricLive 51

Ash: From A to Z Vol. 1
