What Are You Listening To?



Animal Collective's Merriweather Post Pavilion


Each track is so dense with layers upon layers of sound that I hear something new almost every time I listen. I haven't been this addicted to an album since…umm….Person Pitch maybe? :)

Röyksopp - Poor Leno (Silikon Soul Remix) / Erlend Øye - There Is a Light That Never Goes Out (Acapella)
Oh, but if I had the stars from the darkest night
And the diamonds from the deepest ocean,
I'd forsake them all for your sweet kiss,
For that's all I'm wishin' to be ownin'.


Green Day tap into to their 60s Garage Rock roots for a fab little side project release…  Actually, I'd like to hear more from this in this vein.

God I love this album.  The first record I ever bought.  Freaks of the industry is a classic.  Well played.

Those who claim mainstream country music has lost its connection to the past only needed to look as far as the 2008 country sales charts to find evidence of the contrary, in the form of Jamey Johnson and his second album That Lonesome Song. He pays homage to Waylon Jennings, worries that all the true cowboys have ridden away, and shows pride in his music fitting alphabetically ?between Jennings and Jones?. None of that would matter if he weren?t also carrying on the actual traditions of country, singing the heck out of songs rooted in the darkest side of the human experience. He sings about divorce, bad behavior and sadness, and does so with feeling, wit and a sense of humor. That lonesome song keeps carrying along, and he carries it, through a harrowing, moving, album-length consideration of the hard times people face, have faced, and will always face. Dave Heaton
