I'd really recommend the Micah P. Hinson record that tentoze turned me on to this weekend.

I'd recommend Fog's "10th Avenue Freakout", but that's not a sure fire win.

Yeah, Fog definitely sounds like something I'd dig.

comin up. It's hard to pick one, because some things are only hooky in spots.

Actually, I don't know. I heard a few songs from mixes that people from the board sent me, maybe two years ago, and I wasn't too crazy about it. It's decent I suppose.

I'm surprised anyone would recommend this. I thought it blew donkeys.

YESSSSSSSS! Glad people here are finally pickin' up on them...

Of not-yet-mentioned stuff, I'd suggest the new Pelican, Superwolf (will def. be in my top 10), Black Mountain (totally crept up on me), Foriegn Born, Red Sparowes, and (lest anyone forget) that ultimate grower known as Cold Roses by Mr. Ryan Adams and the Cardinals...

I listened to it yesterday for the first time in a few weeks, and it's even better than I remembered...and I thought it was pretty good to begin with. This might just haul off and crack my Top 10 at the end of the year.
