I've been listening to the debut album by Cults all day. It's a good summer record.And all the talk on this page about the Tune-yards has convinced me to download their newest album, and I'm liking it quite a bit. Groovy it is, Shake.

why thank you! it was hooooot as balls though. lord have mercy the entire crowd was soaking wet, which was pretay nasty, but whatever.as a sidenote, this band called the bowerbirds opened up for them and while they were really low key folky type stuff that didn't really stand out to me, they had a chick singer in the band that is just idiotically hot. looks like natalie portman. they're my favorite band now because of her.edit: and I just googled her and it looks like in all of the pictures she's in, she's actively trying to look unattractive, so the pictures online don't even do her a remote justice. she's way too hot to be in a band though. just doesn't make sense.

I'm sorry to hear that you've never seen Radiohead.In other news, I'm listening to the new Bon Iver album:http://pitchfork.com...bon-iver-album/And, yeah, it's incredible.

you straight trippin dawgI actually HAVE seen radiohead live (documented in this very same thread!). arcade fire was better by a factor of at least five in my opinion. gotta give some credit to the crowd at arcade fire being really into it vs. the crowd at radiohead being a bunch of hipster douchebags that were apparently too cool to actually enjoy the show, but af was just a ton more intense and energetic.

oh man smith westerns are good. had to get that out there real quick.edit: this was posted before I heard their first album, so, correction: smith westerns' "dye it blonde" is really good. their first album is very lo-fi, and I'm not a fan of lo-fi. still though, dye it blonde is really good. give it a try.

[SuperJon]

I think this is my new favorite band.

I like the new cut. Sounds like M83 with a little bit of Trent Reznor mixed in.
