3. Cool - I'm going to have to get their CD soon

What's your favorite song from them?

[bif]

4. I don't really have a favorite. All their stuff is good.

[mvd]

5. I plan on posting a "favorite CDs from the first half of 2009" thread soon

Maybe we could get new discoveries that we haven't mentioned there. :hi:

6. Here are a couple discoveries from yesterday

Sarah Blasko and Taken by Trees. Do you ever use allmusic.com?Excellent site for discovering new music--especially with the use of the similar artists category.

[mvd]

8. Yes, I do

I ought to use "similar artists" from that site more. While I don't agree with any review sites 100%, I'd say their reviews are above average. Exceptions include the review of the new Regina Spektor CD, where the reviewer was pretty petty. Regina is experimental enough, I'd say, plus, I hate all the focus on experimentation.

9. Bummer

Can you check it out at home?

10. I'll try and remember

But honestly, I do all my interwebz jackassery during the day at work. When I get home, I pretty much live a technological free life filled with trombones and occasional drinks at the bar.
