Mineral - End Serenading

Hopefully, you already have
this essential album
(and their debut, power of failing),
but if you are like my dear friend tk
and have for whatever reason,
been unable to get your
needy hands upon this,
please do not waste another
needy moment.

I don't care what All Music says,
this album rules and always will.

Clams - Clams

To offset the devastating noise
of the previously posted
album, A Promise, the Clams
certainly deliver.
Enjoy the hazy relief
of this Japanese shoegaze
band's contrasting
sunny noise.

Xiu Xiu - A Promise

I've been listening
to a whole lot of Xiu Xiu
as of late, this album in particular.
I am too tired, as usual,
to talk about this in any depth, but
rest assured that if you are
feeling anxiously devastated,
this album will be right up
your ally.

Lake Heartbeat - Trust in Numbers

At least I have Lake Heartbeat:
soft swedish dance pop
for the broken hearted.
what a gem.
i only hope that its sunny
shining rays of unrequited
pop romance can blind me from
the lack of romance in my life.

but seriously, this album
easily eclipses
The Empire of the Sun

Daitro - Y

Needless to say, I have been
overwhelmingly lazy as of late
and as a result have stopped posting.
Today, that clearly has changed.
However, I am not going to bother
even maintaining a shred
of professionalism
in this blog because that is
boring and I don't really care anyway.

and Daitro is awesome.

Fitness Forever - Personal Train

I've been meaning to post
this fantastic album
for forever, but
for whatever reason have
been to lazy to do so.
The weather is nice today,
and I have nobody to share it
with. Oh well.
I can bossa pop alone.

Robin Guthrie - Carousel

I don't really feel
the need to bore you with
the details of this album.
Robin Guthrie was the guitarist
of the Cocteau Twins.
This is a beautiful
ambient shoegaze album.
Writing is for losers.
