Currently Listening To:

For those interested in indie music, here are my recommendations for the best new music in no particular order (those who read Pitchfork will notice a number of similarities, but what's wrong with that?):
  • Bring It Back, by Mates of State
  • Beat Romantic, by Talkdemonic
  • Everything All the Time, by Band of Horses
  • Bitter Tea, by The Fiery Furnaces
  • Destroyer's Rubies, by Destroyer
  • Skeleton, by Figurines
  • Return to the Sea, by Islands
  • Making Dens, by Mystery Jets
  • Idols of Exile, by Jason Collett
  • Oh You're So Silent Jens, by Jens Lekman
My personal favorites from this list are Bring It Back, Skeleton, Beat Romantic, Return to the Sea, and Oh You're So Silent Jens. But I might change my mind tomorrow. They are all great.

I should also mention that I think most critics got Fiery Furnaces's new album wrong. I think it's much more listenable than some of their other stuff, and while a couple songs are letdowns, the album as a whole is really good. The song, "Waiting to Know You" is, in my opinion, perhaps their best song to date.

Tom-- If you like the Danielson Famile, you should get their Alpha + Omega twin albums. They are beyond fantastic.
