yo... got me some tunes, bitches.

just got my new ninety:

ox - dust bowl revival. i heard these guys on the CBC Radio 3 podcast. they killed it.

josh ritter - the animal years. i'd heard of him from way back, and then emusic made one track from this album the track of the day (windows/explorer users should download the emusic toolbar; it gives you a free track picked by emusic's editors every day!) and now he's back up in my top.

heartless bastards - all this time. another freebee from emusic, i feel in love from the start. kind of country-rock, but better.

the national - sad songs for dirty lovers. i've had their alligator for a while, and really enjoy it. figured i'd check out another one of their albums, and how could i pass up an album with a name like that?

angela desveaux - wandering eyes. another CBC3 find. i don't even remember what she sounds like, but it was good enough for me to immediately add her to my save-for-later list on emusic.

the camaromance - empty picture frames. CBC3... again... damned canadians with their good taste and good manners and good music...

au revoir simone - verses of comfort, assurance & salvation. lame album name, but good music. yet another emusic freebee. interesting mix of natural and manufactured sounds layed down behind beautiful vox. i like me sad stuff.

erin mckeown - distillation. great mix of old-timey jazzy stuff and country/hillbilly and rock. at least, what i already had was like that. i'm hoping for more of the same...

the blow - paper television (not the whole album). i had four tracks left... it's in the editors' heavy rotation list. figured i'd check it out.
