Titus Andronicus - Local Business

 Nic Newby likes this.  Well, that was fun!  It reminded me of so many smoky, sweaty, muggy-as-heck basement shows from my youth a year or two ago.  But of course all the best parts of those shows.  It was raw AND peppy AND scratchy.

The Caretaker - Patience (After Sebald)

 Nic Newby likes this.  I was afraid from the track titles that this album was going to be a little pretentious.  However, it turned out to be perfect music for listening to a typhoon blow in on a muggy-as-hell summer night.  Some parts are even too scary to listen to alone!

Blithe Field - Warm Blood

 Nic Newby likes this.  I judged this album by its cover.  But in this case, that was a good thing.  it's one of those melancholy-background-music-over-nostalgic-samples types of albums, but it's so well done that a tear may come to your eye, one tear to each eye alternating for each song.

Lushlife - Plateau Vision

 Nic Newby likes this.  The opening tune reminded me of M-Flo, who you probably haven't heard of yet but by the time you do they'll be passé.  But it's a good style and is kept up well throughout the rest of the album - a little bit of Hot Chip, a little bit of Enigma, and a lot of Missy Elliot.
