Your wife hates you? Yeah, I can sort of see that.

Stars is one of them. The girl is ugly, but she's a good singer. What I've heard of the second album didn't blow me away as much as the first, but has convinced me that I will pick up a used copy when I come across one.

I don't think he likes Stars. I remember him saying the girl was ugly and then the whole "I saw Stars so BSS sucks live" thing.

I believe the current album is the third album they've released.

Youth Group?

You are correct. Had thoughts of buying their first but never did.

You and god's shoeshine will be sharing a genuine Seattle rock. What I've heard I have liked from that band. Not sure why, just have.

You made it too easy by ruling out the US and UK. Youth Group is pleasant rock. Skeleton Jar is pretty catchy. I do wonder if the album is too much of the same sound? Fico, do all the songs sound like the three on the web site? Here's a link if anyone else wants to weigh in.

One album that I am really looking forward to is the new Nada Surf on 9/20. Though I'm prepared to be disappointed in comparison to their last album.

I didn't check the link but I think the album is solid as a whole and quite pleasant...the singer reminds me a lot of Tim Booth from James...catchy pop songs well played, I believe the bassist from the Vines plays with them..there's a session from them at www.kexp.org

New material?  I know I could look it up, but when was her last album of original material?

Yes, new material.  The Red Shoes in 1993 was her last album.
 
 Since I know you love pre-release song titles too, the first single "King Of The Mountain" precedes the album on October 24th.  And the US release is Nov. 8.
