Suis La Lune - Heir ep

I cant believe my last post
was Erasure. At this point in time,
i would rather die than subject myself
to that bouncy barf.

heir is one of my favorite eps.
suis la lune has a new split out
which also rules, but whatever.

the majority of my recent posts
have been so absurd.
yikes.
i really need to
get it together.

Gonzales - Soft Power

Whatever.
I am going to do
what I need to do.

Currently, that means
post this whole album
exclusively for
the 70's
pop ballet throwback,
"slow down."

What a joke.
This song makes me furious,
but I know that it is
going to be tarring through
my head endlessly all day
thanks to a Minitel Rose
remix.

Espira - Bajo Tus Sueños EP

I may delete this post later,
but at the moment
this soft dreamy
shoegaze is just right.
Well, it could be sadder,
and slower, and less beat driven
but then it would be
everyone will leave you eventually.

The Cure - Wish

I wish (ha.) that I could
post this and this
everyday because they
are perfect releases
that perfectly fit my
all too imperfect life.

However, since that is redundant
and silly, I will post
this other personal favorite.

To Wish Impossible Things
is one of the best songs
ever.

Alison's Halo - Jetpacks for Julian EP

You have given up
on me.
So now, I am giving up
on you.

What a gorgeous ep.
There is so much beauty
in this world,
but you didn't want
to share it with me.

For Stars - Windows for Stars

And other times,
AMG get's it spot on.

This album sounds like
an emotionally exhausted
Parenthetical Girls.
The softer tracks
kill me.

I feel like saying
something personal here,
but to avoid sounding
cheap,
I will refrain.

Sally Shapiro - My Guilty Pleasure

Allmusic guide is always
getting it wrong.

Sally Shapiro's sophomore release

It definitely rules.

Corea - Los Peores

Here is some real horror show
spanish skramz.
The album's strong points
are the longer tracks,
and these are treats
indeed.

It is comical how poor
my writing has become.

The Sawtooth Grin - Cuddlemonster

What an erratic
week, thus creating
an even more erratic
state of mind.
Thank goodness

of the Sawtooth Grin.

Xiu Xiu - Fabulous Muscles

"I can stop lying, I can stop punching my own face
I can stop stealing money,
I can stop hating my own heart
I can do it
Because of you
I can stop scratching up my cheeks
I can stop drinking so much
I can stop wanting to kill myself
I can stop wanting your perfect heart
I can start listening, I can say hi
I can feel something good
Little Panda McElroy"

(sorry for two xiu xiu posts, but they are one of my favorites and this song is especially important to me at the moment)

My Winter Nerve - Leave it to Science to Solve All Your Problems

I think that this unfortunately now split
Maryland based band is great,
but I am too tired
and too apathetic
to explain why.

They are a mix of good
post rock and mid-west emo.

The Dirty Projectors - Temecula Sunrise Ep

I am sorry,
but I am a sucker
for the dirty projectors.
They are just great.
At the very least,
their vocal work is undeniably
irresistible.

However,
this release is absolutely
in conflict with my mood.

Xplo-Sean - Believe Me/Outbreak

I recommend downloading
all of Xplo-Sean's tracks
from the Mad For It site.
Absolutely amazing,

and free too!

He sounds like an m83 who
never saw the light of day,
only a broken strobe,
and recorded alone
on a cheap multitrack.

Parker Lewis - The Cynicals

I would have preferred
to post a link to his
self titled album,
but the link on the

In any event,
this ep is fantastic.
Be sure to investigate
Parker Lewis' other releases
as well. They are free
for crying out loud.
