 really boring. ben gibbard's voice sounds like cats dying. "long division" has a grating sound reminiscent of nails on a chalkboard.
 death cab for cutie lost me with this one.

Unless the purpose of this thread is musical navel-gazing, which has its charm, it's nice to have even brief descriptions of what these albums are.

 The perfect soundtrack for a pleasant spring afternoon.

 the perfect soundtrack for sitting in a dark room with a blanket over your head.
 
 ...like the first record - love this one...

J. Spaceman/Sun City Girls - Mr. Lonely OST
 
 
 Mostly sinister dark ambient stuff.
 
 
 Goes well with the recent creepy vibe on this board, actually.

Well...started dark and sinister but it ended up being mostly very pretty and melancholy.

The new Weezer album is out trippin through the wires. Not a huge fan, but it's pretty damn fun stuff.

 Assured-beyond-their-years San Diego quartet the Muslims will definitely get a lot of attention for their name, but we're much more interested in the band's catchy, sorta sloppy and stark post-punk-infused rock 'n' roll. They mix a kind of Strokes-y, and therefore VU, detachment and something that bumps in the night like Hell and his Voidoids (or, better yet, Hell and the Heartbreakers doing "Love Comes In Spurts"). You can also hear a bit of the Stooges -- not just because the band cites 'em, along with the Replacements, as an inspiration -- and early Jonathan Richman & the Modern Lovers (see "Future Rock," "On My Time," etc). Whatever the mix of forerunners, the Muslims find a way to make it their own -- it's kinda uncanny. We've been listening to their new 7-song 12" (and the 10-song CD) on repeat (thanks Robots for the heads up),

I've been listening to the new Old 97's album all day, and surprisingly it doesn't suck.

New Weezer single is up:

 Reminds me of the Blue record.  Pretty solid pop song.
