Midlake : The Trials Of Van Occupanther : Roscoe
The Cinematic Orchestra : Ma Fleur : To Build A Home
Blonde Redhead : 23 : Spring And by Summer Fall

I’ve mentioned it already, but since I love this band so much, I’ll bring it up again. Beach House will be at The Earl with Papercuts on March 1st. Here is a song from the forthcoming Devotion available in February (or now bootlegged):
Beach House : Devotion : Gila
This Wednesday (12/19) you can watch the new Sigur Ros movie Heima at the Midtown Art Cinema with me.
I’ve been listening to Marnie Stern again a bunch lately, so here’s a funny mash-up I had missed:
The Hood Internet - Absorb the Lip Gloss
The Smashing Pumpkins have new material to release at the beginning of next year.
Hot Chip have a new album, Made In The Dark, coming out February 4th.
Remixes of Thom Yorke’s Eraser are coming soon.
Creative Loafing did a piece on Fag Static this week. When I caught them opening for Deerhunter, they were really awesome.
Pimp C RIP
Tori Amos lays the smack down:
Flight of The Conchords will be releasing a full-length album in April.
Ok, a little personal note: After 8 and a half years as an undergrad at Georgia Tech, I graduate tomorrow morning. The ensuing bender may limit my posting for the next few days, but we have all sorts of goodies for you next week including our Top 50 Albums of 2007, plus tons of other best of nonsense.
