Maybe it’s been all this iPod talk these past few days, but I’ve added a bunch of new albums to my iTunes library recently…
Metric, Live it Out
Hands down, better than the first album.
The Arcade Fire, Arcade Fire
Not as good as the second album, but lovely just the same.
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Howl
All my female friends seem to love these guys, but I never could get past the stoner-rock facade. This is more a “rootsy” album, which normally should turn me off… but, I’m intrigued.
Stellastarr*, Harmonies for the Haunted
ehh, sigh.
Ladytron, Witching Hour
Another My Bloody Valentine homage… but, this one doesn’t suck.
Franz Ferdinand, Franz Ferdinand You Could Have It So Much Better
I hope all of their LPs are eponymously titled. Thanks to Chris, for pointing out the obvious… this is not another eponymously titled release. I do love the Soviet-inspired artwork, though.
The Franz Ferdinand does have a new title: You Could Have It So Much Better.
Thanks for the Ladytron notice. I really loved their last LP, plus I’m a MBV fan. Let’s hope the combination is fortuitous.
