  perhaps no one has mentioned, Placebo's new disc comes out in March, supposed to be very very good, and even has a song where Molko sings with Michael Stipe...should be interesting, i am pirating it as we speak, but dont worry you naysayers, i will buy it when it comes out    

I pirated it a while back. The first songs are great, as they get slower, they get worse. Not their best effort.

 The Elected -- Sun, Sun, Sun
 The Subways -- Young for Eternity

I own and enjoy both of these.  I probably enjoy the Subways more, but I've also owned it a lot longer.  I also enjoy the Hard-Fi album.

It's a tough call between Destroyer/Magnolia Electric and the Editors.  I'm going to procrastinate on the decision.

Yeah, I had already bought a Destroyer/Magnolia ticket, so I'm going to catch the Editors in Baltimore 4/1.

New Tilly and the Wall, May 23rd

I was really excited for Jenny Lewis, but didn't find the album to be all that great. So, now my hopes are resting on the May release of "Honey from the Tombs" by Amy Millan and Emily Haines' September solo release.

Too country for you?

Actually, no. My favorite song off the album is "Rise Up With Fists," which I think is probably one of the purer country songs. I just wasn't blown away by some of the less full (sound-wise) songs, like the title track. I haven't really listened to it much since buying it, so it will probably grow on me, but for now it's not my favorite. I'm still seeing her live next month.
