Here's another one featuring Carla Kihlstedt from 2 Foot Yard, although this album is instrumental (except one track). It's not grounded in pop like Borrowed Arms is, at times it's actually pretty experimental, but still a beautiful album with lots of great melodies. Hope you dig it.

Tin Hat - The Sad Machinery Of Spring

^Tin Hat kicks some serious ass.

My rec: This Heat - Deceit

Everyone needs to hear that album and it's the best one I can think of that has strong vocals without being too inaccessible.

The band is basically a violin, cello, drums trio. The violinist provides the main vocals, while the cellist mostly provides background singing.
I have heard a similar band or two one being called Jaggery that isn't popular in
any way but, the vocals and the songs kind of remind me of them. They played
a local show and even shared some jaggery which is the snack they got their name from.

Also, all rec's have been added! I might be done for the night. Sat down to watch some TV. It's quite a task to review things in such an elaborate manner lol.

On a note I wanted to say I've heard Cry by Faith Hill and it's really a perfectly emotional song. I'm curious to see how the rest of that record plays out. Am I going to need a pint of ice cream?

If you enjoyed the strokes material similar to those songs I mentioned.

I am officially recommending the Strokes Is This It.

Not criticizing as I've only listened to their debut, and only a couple times, but as the cover is your avatar and it's universally regarded as their best, why didn't you rec that first?

@Horror - Considering your assertion that you don't listen to rock, how the hell is it that you liked Arkangel? Is there something you're not telling us, or should we just go buck wild and assume that you're a metalhead/punk who just never knew it?

I think I said it before in the torture thread. I like heavy music, I do like metal but, I like it LIVE. I want to be there to experience it. It's not something I enjoy just sitting around listening to ya know? And I think it should say up there that I love punk rock music. Have since I was a teenager. Local shows were a big part of my life for a long time. I prefer underground punk usually though. I think.

It's been a long time man.

In that case I'm reccing __ LP (2012) by Whatever Brains.

A punk album so genius it doesn't matter if you see it live or not. Though I highly suggest that too.

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.
