Yee ha! I just learned that the new Silversun Pickups album is out today. I've ordered it on Amazon Prime and can stand a two day wait to listen to it. Their last CD, Swoon, is on heavy rotation at medic8r manor and on my gym mix. It's really well done from start to finish. This time, they have a new producer, which can be a dicey proposition. However, the new producer is Jacknife Lee, who got R.E.M. to make their best record in years with Accelerate and who has also produced albums by U2, Weezer, Snow Patrol, and - ahem - Regina Spektor, among others. Can't wait to see what he brings to their sound. Here's a cool interview with drummer Christopher Guanlao at ESPN.com, which is apparently my source for music news today.

J.P., I just ordered the their new album this morning. Looking forward to it as I really enjoy the first two albums.

CV, I see that Marina and the Diamonds album released this week. When do we get a review?
Sadly, Amazon only shows an import version that's over twenty dollars. Is there going to be a domestic release?

So did I.. lol I've been quite infatuated with the Ben Howard CD I picked up a couple weeks ago. His first album from what I know. Nice, mellow, some pretty good acoustic guitar. His voice reminds me of Lindsey Buckingham. http://www.amazon.com/Every-Kingdom/dp/B...6814&sr=1-2

JP, have you given Sloan a try? I think they'd be right up your alley.

I don't have my copy yet. I ordered copies from both DeepDiscount and Amazon.com, thinking that ensured I'd get it. I was supposed to get both this week, but Amazon.com still hasn't shipped despite today being the estimated delivery day, and DeepDiscount lists it as being on backorder. The bastards.
