 I don't like anybody covering Joy Division or The Clash, but I can't stop listening to this album.

My Morning Jacket "It Still Moves"
 
 I thought with all the hype there must have been something wrong with it and was ready to trash it but...damn that's a good record.

[Mobius]

The Killers - Hot Fuss
 
 They come across as poseur tools . . . but darnit the songs are good.  I think a lesson is never bet against anything Alan Moulder is involved with.

[Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer]

Funny, I was going to say My Morning Jacket's "Z", which I just got into.

I think 95% of the bands out there come out as poseur tools.  Even our favorites.
