M. Ward – Epistemology – Hold Time (2009)

Benjy Ferree – Fear – Come Back To The Five And Dime Bobby Dee, Bobby Dee (2008)
- 2nd album
- Concept album inspired by Bobby Driscoll, the boy who played Peter Pan for Disney in the 40’s & 50’s
- After hearing a couple old time pop songs (‘Fear’) I wasn’t expecting to hear a track like this one… sounds like it could be found on a Raconteur’s record.
- He’s getting comparisons to Jack White, Freddie Mercury and Marc Bolan… pretty accurate and pretty good company!

Matt & Kim - Good Ol' Fashion Nightmare – Grand (2009)
- 2nd album, debut out in 2006, Self-titled.
- just added to the Pitchfork Music Fest, which is one of the more relevant festivals you’ll find
- keyboard & drums that sound like much more than that… sum of the parts
- Big indie rock sounds without a doubt… the sound of the vocals scream it.
- This track thunders along and build very enjoyably

Animal Collective - What Would I Want? Sky - Fall Be Kind EP (2009)
- follow up EP to Merriweather Post Pavilion, as album widely considered one of the year’s best.
- This track expands on a sample from the Grateful Dead’s ‘Unbroken Chain’
- When it comes to the nerdiest of the nerdy in the music world, the more a band is ‘different for the sake of being different’ the better they are received and the more they are praised. This annoys me greatly, but these guys seems to always be experimenting without seeming like they are trying to do it to win over critics.
- They have some quite approachable songs and they have some wildly different and potentially off-putting songs. This track is half of each and gives a great representation of what they offer.

Japandroids – Young Hearts Spark Fire – Post-Nothing (2009)
- Debut, critical praise is pouring down on this album.
- raucous post punk rock
- huge energy and distortion. You’ll want to see this song live and as loud as possible
