These United States – Ever Make You Mine - What Lasts (2010)

Frightened Rabbit - Son C (2010)
- Latest single released to the band's mailing list.
- This band had a lot of hype from the start, and that combined with a ‘far from album best’ first single pushed me away at first, but the deeper I dug into this album the more I was blown away
- Scottish accent stands out, but there seems to be something more than that to his vocals and make them truly unique.

Menomena – Tithe - Mines (2010)
- 4th album
- Lackthereof and Ramona Falls are side projects that have had releases since the last Menomena album
