yeh, most of us have already

 

it was a good CD though

 

I haven't listened to them in some time, but if they released a new record relatively soon, I would still buy it the day it came out. But my interest is gradually waning....seriously, they need to get on with it already.

To help you out a little--Ys isn't her first album and technically it's not out yet. The street date for the disc isn't until Nov. 14. You think you dig Ys, you should check out The Milk-Eyed Mender.

 

Onto the question at hand:

 

Six Organs of Admittance

Wooden Wand & the Vanishing Voice

Hush Arbors

Magik Markers

Sun City Girls

Animal Collective

Racc-oo-oon (their first album is terrible, but since then they've really been spectacular)

Radar Bros.

Fiery Furnaces (although Matt's solo discs are mediocre at best)

Richard Buckner
