Enjoying the newest Sufjan Stevens a whole lot lately.
Just discovered a band called Okkervil River recently, they're pretty awesome. Kinda like a wilco meets neutral milk hotel sorta thing.
I'll be re-visiting this thread.

I'm inspired already, although through a friend i have the Clap your Hands and Sufjan Stevens ablums i not yet given them a listen. Well i lie because i'm listening to Sufjan Stevens and it is beautiful, nice melodic tones very agreeable. I'll slap it on to my mp3 player and give it a good run through tomorrow.
I'm happy you saw wolf parade, i wish i had a little more time and money to see more bands. I went through a nice stint when i was in berlin for a yeah and was seeing a band at least every other week. So many band were found in that year. A whole world of music exploded before my eyes and i've never looked back. Before then i was always a fan of the Brit-pop movement taking some great bands along the way, super furry animals as an example or ash. Of course oasis and blur were always part of the mix, then moved to the american bands, weezer, ben folds five, mercury rev, flaming lips, the strokes ... etc. Now i'm appreciating so many bands that simply don't get air time or are reatively unknown.
Before i forget the new Doves album is definately worth a listen - Some cities.
*M83 to a point* - I'll settle for that guccilvr - Origin of symmetry is a good lisen haven't heard any other of the albums.
Great thread - make sure this one stays alive
