broken spindles - Inside Absent: Think the 'Faint Light' or 'Diet Faint', which is pretty accurate since the Spindles is what's-his-face from the Faint's little side project. This time out we have some vocals. Decent, but extremely short - 10 songs, 26 minutes.
foo fighters - In Your Honour: One disc is loud Dave Grohl yelly rock, the other tame acoustic fair. A couple solid tracks on here, which will sound great live when played alongside their other solid tracks.
cursive - The Difference Between Houses and Homes (Lost Songs & Loose Ends 1995-2001): I've never much listened to these guys, their whole concept album about an organ seemed tright. Mainly because being a Saddle Creek band, I unfortunately lumped them in with some of their more bland label mates (I won't mention names, they're too obvious). I kind of like this collection - it's a ruff around the edges dischordian screamo type fair for the tragic lovelorn angst in you.
jamiroquai - Dynamite: Sha-zaam, disco is alive and well. It's as if the guy with furry hat is channeling Disco Stu. One wonders if the album title is a nod to Napolean for his display of rad dance skills during 'Canned Heat' which may or may not have fueled the 'renewed interest' fire behind this release.
royskopp - The Understanding: I don't get it...HA! No really though, some songs are really good, others are snoozers / filler. Further proof that electronical genred musica tends to work best at the 12" level.
