Tommy Keene - Crushing The Ether was the last one I knew about. Is there a more recent one?

01 "the life pursuit" belle & sebastian
02 the minus 5
03 "rabbit fur coat" jenny lewis with the watson twins
04 "fox confessor brings the flood" neko case
05 "cannibal sea" the essex green
06 "kick" white rose movement
07 "idols of exile" jason collett
08 "garden ruin" calexico
09 "subtitulo" josh rouse
10 "fishscale" ghostface killah

11 "the loon" tapes 'n tapes
12 "the crane wife" the decemberists
13 "born again in the usa" loose fur
14 "elan vital" pretty girls make graves
15 "2005 pitchfork music festival sampler" various artists
16 "the animal house" josh ritter
17 "get lonely" the mountain goats
18 "return to the sea" the islands
19 "pick a bigger weapon" the coup
20 "night ripper" girl talk

21a "let's get out of this country" camera obscura
21b "post-war" m.ward

the decemberists, mountain goats, josh ritter & m.ward will most likely all be higher a month from now. i've only had a few listens of each so far.

more & more listens is dramatically changing this top 20+. i still need more m.ward listens. i imagine decemberists, mountain goats & josh ritter will all have a place in my top 10 within 2 weeks, with m.ward hanging in the middle of the next 10 (but again, i need to hear "post-war" more).

this isn't even counting the surprising upstarts youth group. diggin' that album too.

no but that's an april 2006 release

The Jules Shear is the better of the 2 radcliffe singled out but I think both are good albums even if i'm not sure I'll listen much to either in a few years.

That Keene Bros. album is very good. Thanks for that hookup, M-Cap. Any chance you could set me up with the solo Keene rekkid, as well?

Padilla's been their most consistent (and consistently drunk) starter. You guys have the division locked up, so stop worryin'!
