musically overwhelmed

The amount of music that I have downloaded/bought in the past week is overwhelming. Here are just a few of the things I have been listening too:

TV on the Radio - Dear Science
I haven't really been able to get into this one yet...well, any of them (there are so many!) but I can already tell it's a winner. It's so different from their first album Return from Cookie Mountain. Although I liked Cookie, I just wasn't obsessed with it. There are certain tracks on Dear Science that I feel like I will be obsessed with soon....

Laura Marling - Alas I Cannot Swim
This album is ridiculous...in a good, awesome, no words good enough for it kind of way. All the blogs are talking about how amazing it is and the main reason why they love it so much is because Little Miss Laura apparently wrote this album at 17 years old. The lyrics and music are just beautiful.

Ra Ra Riot - The Rhumb Line
This is cute, fun pop music. I like them because they have two string instruments in the band...the cello and violin...I am a sucker for both. They remind me of Vampire Weekend but less tweeky.

Lykee Li - Youth Novels
She's Swedish and everyone knows how awesome the Swedes are about their pop music. Seriously, there are blogs devoted soley to pop music. Do you remember Robyn who sang "Show me Love"? She's swedish and we thought it was a one hit wonder but no....that girl came back this year with a new album and people have been singing her praises. But I digress....this was an album that I love more and more each time I listen. I don't know how to explain her. Just listen.

Ok, so that is all for now, but seriously, i am downloading more as we speak ! The new Cold War Kids, Jenny Lewis and Kings of Leon cds are in queue. Music and I took a little break this summer but I am so glad that it is back ! Just bought tickets for the Ting Tings....I'm dancing a little jig as I type! "Shut Up and Let Me Go ! Hey !"
