out this week

The best records of the year are out this week...

Good Shoes: Think Before You Speak
An excellent debut by this very young band from Morden, London. Think Before You Speak is full of power-pop-rock songs from start to finish! Oh... I really need to give this record its own post...

Nazanin [wicked-cool song]
All In My Head [super-wicked-cool song]
Never Meant To Hurt You [wicked-cool song]
Things To Make And Do [wicked-cool song]

Great Lake Swimmers: Ongiara
Yet another astonishing record by Great Lake Swimmers... really, is Tony Dekker capable of writing a bad song?

Backstage with the Modern Dancers [wicked-cool song]
There Is a Light [wicked-cool song]
Put There by the Land [wicked-cool song]

Klaxons: Myths of the Near Future
One of the most important records of the year is finally out in North America... now you don't have to pay $30+ for an import!!! (or in my case, $50 for a vinyl import)

Golden Skans [super-wicked-cool song]
Magick [super-wicked-cool song]
