It reminded me of the noise-country-pop stylings of Pavement. "Furr" is much less adventurous to my ears. My favorite record in the last year was "Dirty Moons" by the band Prisonshake. It was sort of the indie rock "Chinese Democracy." Literally dozens of fans had been anxiously awaiting it's release for 15 years. Some younger bands that have gotten my attention in the last year or two - No Age, Parts & Labor, Times New Viking, Cheap Time, Magic Lanterns, Shaky Hands, Witch Hats, Wavves, Wildildlife, Young Widows, Cave, Awesome Color, Teeth Mountain and Wooden Shjips I liked Blitzen Trapper’s last album “Wild Mountain Nation” a lot.

And Mosley, Mr. AltBacon Bropants isn't the first name that comes to mind right now, so I would shush. :) Haha sorry I’m not in on the inside witty banter you two have going on and can’t recognize sarcasm when the shoe fits.

It's nice cause there's isn't any downloading and you can access your list online anywhere. They also have a related song feature under discover that's kind of like pandora. I don't follow trends and despite liking some of the same music you guys do, I don't use it to try to seem cool or consider myself part of any specific elitist community. Too limiting and condescending for my taste. Yeah, you can upload music, vidoes and all kinds of stuff or you can do what I do and search for music and make playlists that way.

If so, i might be swayed. My 30 free songs on lala is up soon so maybe I'll jump ship. Also, lala doesn't have The Rapture's song "No Sex For Ben" and imeem does, which means a lot to us in the alt community (the word hipster is so 2k8).

They make me want to grab a mountain man and go live with him in the woods. Mosley, I can't remember if I told you to check out Okkervil River or Wye Oak yet, but you should. Lastly, why pay for music on lala when you can get it for free on imeem?!

I like a few of their songs but for the most part I find it to be too random. But maybe like other bands they will start to grow on me the more I am forced to listen to them ;) How can you H8 Bob? I can understand the H8 for Blitzen they are not for everyone, even I hated for them longest time. I dont know when the new Passion Pit will be out, I just know that a lot of people are buzzing about it. I hope they don't do what Tokyo Police Club did and put out a disappointing LP. I H8 AnCo.
