...so i highly recommend Acute's record "Arms Around A Stranger" which was just released today...
simple, thoughtful, powerful indie rock. some of their songs feel very Wilco circa Summerteeth to me. they just have that air about them...

What's the point of these? Aren't the 2CD remasters still in print? For $4 more you can get 20 bonus tracks.
And don't we have enough "Best of Elvis Costello" discs already? That "First 10 Years" cd is nearly identical to the "Best Of..." I bought over 15 years ago.

"It wasn't really my initiative," Costello tells Billboard.com, crediting the Universal Music Group with the catalog projects. He did, however, fully participate in the endeavors.
"It doesn't require a huge amount of soul-searching to do it," Costello notes. "You're trying to make a program that might interest people who've never heard you before. It's another way to present it that's neither superior or inferior; it's just different."
Costello, who's done similar reissue campaigns with other labels, adds, "There's no compulsion to buy these records. If they interest you, you'll buy them. The fact that they're going to be available (digitally) makes people's ability to buy them in excerpts easier, because people tend to do that these days when they're online -- if they haven't stolen them already."

Nothing jumped out at me on the Bravery disc. I did find the National quite listenable, but I was distracted for some part of it and will go back. I didn't bother with the used and will try the Buckley disc later.
Anyone have thoughts on the Voxtrot album?

Agreed, its completely mediocre. They had so much promise and while there are still glimmers of good music, it is largely uninteresting.

So what you're telling me is that bloggers hyped a band that wasn't quite ready for primetime? I'm shocked and appalled. If you can't trust a blog, what can you trust????
