Beach House

Toro y Moi

and of course

ARCADE FIRE

And the year's not over!

So many new albums are coming out.

    I've really been enjoying Arcade Fire since their live stream.

    Rebellion (Lies), No Cars Go, and Neighborhood #2 (Laika) are my current favorites.

    I'm also hoping the White Stripes release a new album soon. But who knows what Jack White is up to.

    so pissed off at the new my chemical romance cd being pushed back

    this was the year the forums inadvertently introduced (and then ruined) me to k-pop though so i guess it hasn't been a total wash

    Answer the question, Mr Eastwood. Are you or have you ever been affiliated with the "POSTING BROS"

    I think it's my favorite album of the year, actually. The opening of Brothers sounds so much like the ME1 death music to me. That's not why I love the whole album, but it's still awesome.
