What Are You Listening To?

Residence Deejays & Frissco - Sexy Love (Loud mix)

Trans-Siberian Orchestras new album "Night Castle"

Best album of the year either:

Animal Collective-Merriweather Post Pavillion
or
The xx-xx

Summer hit that wasn't:

The Raveonettes-Bang

Missing in action award: The Arcade Fire (WTFAT?)

Also forgot to mention Santogold vs Diplo album. That's been rocking my world for some time but I think it's this year.

Honourable mention:

Antlers-Hospice

Animal Collective is so lush. It sweeps over me. The xx is weird. It's all riffs intertwined. Also very mature love songs for a bunch of 19 year olds.
I would have loved to have heard Bang on the radio all summer. unlikely I know.
If anyone knows The Arcade Fire give them a call for me. I can't wait much longer.

Cheers, John

PS. Antlers made concept album about death. What's not to like

Rolling Stones - Forty Licks
