Okay, try these:

Adron

The Blow

Bishop Allen

Bryan Scary and the Shredding Tears

Au Revoir Simone

Hurray for the Riff Raff

Bell

I know, it's a lot, and I don't really expect anyone to follow all any of my suggestions. I'm just having fun sampling.

Listening to myself play acoustic guitar, loving the simplicity and eschewing the electronic world, all the while with the internet at my fingertips for reference to bring up any lyrics or music I used to know, play, and love, it's amazing what you never forget. Thinking about going out into the 26F weather for a walk, not too many opportunities for same down here in North Texas, I love the cold although the strange irony this year is I have broken through a threshold and now am actually allergic to cold (check it on Wikipedia it's a real condition), that's my punishment, one among many, for moving to Texas.

Gesundheit!






Sorry, that happens to me every time I use that word here. Couldn't resist.

Man, I've been re-listening to my last suggestions all day. I really love them all, but especially The Blow, Bryan Scary and the Shredding Tears, and Au Revoir Simone. They're my best finds in a while. Seriously, go download the free tracks. Okay, now I'm getting pushy.

Apes & Androids - Blood Moon

This is also pretty entertaining.

They's good. Downloads confirmed. Bryan Scary is the highlight for me.

I figured you'd be the one to actually try them out. Yeah, Bryan Scary's great. More albums to fit into my budget.

Gah, 14 bucks on Amazon! Have they no decency?

Yeah, ouch. There are new Blu-rays going for $5!

Ooh, I missed that. I'll check them out, thanks!
