A very nicely produced, written and thoroughly enjoyable album, IMO

I haven't actually begun listening to it yet. Plan to really soon though, I'll let you know

Just been out doing a spot of CD shopping, not too many disc brought home, but these are the two i found piqued my interest...

Death Cab for Cutie - The Open Door EP
Poecupine Tree - The Incident

Very excited about giving both of these a good headphone listen very very soon!

You can share your opinion about it in Porcupine Tree thread

Thanks.
Do you know some other albums by them or this is your first try?

I have had a friend play their stuff for me and i liked it much, but was always so busy trying to find my favorite artists stuff and keep up with that.... now thati have cleared the decks i figured it was time to try something new... I would have bought some of their older studio albums too, but alas, the store had none... Happy to take uploads though!

Bought on CD:
Silversun Pickups- Swoon
Genghis Tron- Board up the House
Jónsi- Go
Tech N9ne- Killer
Super Furry Animals- Radiator

Record Store Day was a smashing success! It may have packed like a can of sardines in there, but it was well worth it.
The live music was great too.

I'm fortunate enough to be in San Francisco right now so I went to Amoeba earlier today and the place was just bustling. Surprisingly though the lines went really quickly and the staff was super helpful with finding stuff. I was a little disappointed in the metal section though, not nearly as much stuff as I thought there would be, but their hip-hop section more than made up for it. Here's what I got:

Sweatshop Union - Water Street (2008)
Delerium - Karma (1997)
Blackalicious - Blazing Arrow (2002)
Green Carnation - Light of Day, Day of Darkness (2001)
CunninLynguists - A Piece of Strange (2006)
My Bloody Valentine - Loveless (1991)
The Fall - This Nation's Saving Grace (1986)

I also had a few in the hand but I ended up putting them back just because I didn't want to spend too much money. Those 7 CD's were $61 so I didn't do very bad. I immediately snatched up A Piece of Strange though because of how rare it is to find that album in CD format, most places online are trying to sell it for over $100 so to get it for $14.99 was awesome. All in all I'm very happy with my turn out this year, I think next year I'll have to return and go at it again.

Dude I went there last time I was in San Francisco ... quite the excellent store, and reasonable prices as you said. Another reason why San Francisco is amazing.

Anyways, my most recent purchases/download:

I've just gotten into Andrew Bird... he is excellent. Really beautiful music.
