^ Slayer have always been awesome; the problem is getting others to realize it!
Anyway, a couple new additions to my colleczion- Lobster Newberg - Actress (2009) A curious yet attractive slice of modern prog. rock, blending the propulsive Indie of The White Stripes with the quirkiness of Gentle Giant to varying degrees of effectiveness. The generally short song lengths and cheery production values are nice touches too, so I recommend this one highly to prospective listeners. Do Make Say Think - Winter Hymn County Hymn Secret Hymn (2003) This is a party where dub, folk, post-rock and various forms of modern jazz-tinged electronica mingle and share drinks, and a bloody good gig from my listenings so far. The fact that it covers so much ground makes it something of a marvel actually, and I think it'll have a lot of staying power as I spend more time with it.

Akercocke - Words That Go Unspoken, Deeds That Go Undone Downloaded this after Lee gave them a positive write up in his "50 Albums to Bang Your Head To". Good progressive black metal is always a welcome to my ears, however I think I had my hopes set a little too high for this album. Not to say the album was bad, it just wasn't as good as some of the other acts I've heard this year like Cobalt's album Gin. |

It's an album that definitely needs repeated listens. I'm not the biggest fan of the hyperfast beats (unless it's Grindcore) but I love the brass balls of making an album that is not initially pleasing to fans of a particular genre who hate deviation from their preferred sound!

Aydio - Groove Road EP Earlier in the year I was sent his debut EP Deltitnu and was pretty impressed by his beat making abilities. It's for the most part trip-hop, but it's got some added dub to make it really stand out and rememberable. Enjoying this one, but not as much as Deltitnu however for $.91 cents I really can't complain about anything. |

^I'm listening to it right now. Great album but it's making me a bit sick (a good thing, but not at the moment).

I just downloaded the new Kings of Convenience: Declaration of Dependence. It's absolutely stunning. Perfect for when I'm drinking tea in the morning, or evening for that matter. I am constantly amazed by the records these guys put out, there hasn't been a bad one yet.

Fleet Foxes - Fleet Foxes I eventually decided to hear what all the fuss was about, having only heard 2 songs before. I was greatly rewarded, it's like 11 tracks of sunshine coming from my speakers. I wish i was sitting in grass by a stream on a sunny summer day listening to this. Great stuff Usherhouse - Molting A stark contrast to Fleet Foxes. This is dark, atmospheric gothic rock best suited for sitting in a dark room on your own with a pair of headphones. A good album overall but some songs tend to go nowhere.
