80's new wave isn't really new because it was in..ya know..the 80's. And since we can't spell new right anymore (as in now(keyword: now)) I just spelled it nu.

Oh god did I laugh.
Anyway, to get back on fucking topic for a change, I know this album came out a few months ago but I didn't like Islands until like a week ago. So whatev.
The best thing Neil D has done since the Unicorns broke. Plus, Montreal area music. *pimps*

He won American Idol. Or did he come second? Yeah, whatever. He's famous for being on a reality TV show. He's not an 'artist' in the strictest sense.

He was an artist before he went on american idol. He sang on the Zodiac show a few times. Once at a Catholic church on tv. And he was in a few musicals, including "Witch" and "The ten commandments". His friends from the musicals advised him to try out for American Idol. But American idol helped his fame more than anything else.

this is by far the best soundtrack I've ever heard. I bought the whole damn thing on iTunes. I'm just EXTREMELY dissapointed I couldn't have bought a physical copy. I've already seen the movie three times and I can't wait to get it on DVD.
My favourites are "night and day" by Art Tatum,
"Petey's song" by Jarvis Cocker,
"Kristofferson's song" (my themesong) by Alexandre Desplat,
"Let Her Dance" by the Bobby Fuller Four,
and "Just another dead rat in a garbage can behind a Chinese resturaunt" by Alexandre Desplat.

I haven't seen Mr. Fox yet, but that figures. Wes Anderson movies have amazing soundtracks. Have you heard the one from the Life Aquatic? It might be the best for any movie, anywhere, ever, period.
I think it's 'cause the guy from DEVO picks them.

Cumulo Nimbus - Totensonntag
Cumulo Nimbus is a German medieval metal/rock band. This album sounds much darker than their earlier ones, but it's still very melodic and catchy.
There's only one song on the album I don't like. The rest is really pretty awesome!
Here's an example....couldn't find another on YT :b

Aaaaaand the second one is...
Letzte Instanz - Schuldig
The music of Letzte Instanz is similar to Cumulo Nimbus. They use violins very often as well. I think that their new album's even better than "Totensonntag" of Cumulo Nimbus, because it has even more awesome songs. Both were really worth the money.
examples (sorry, I found nothing from "Schuldig" on YT >.>):

if you want to sample one of their songs, "it's my own cheating heart" is my favourite.

Yes, yes.
I can't really see anyone pegging that Phoenix album as a "best" of anything even a year from now. I listened to 1901 it was pretty forgettable "dance-rock" (ugh) stuff that sounds like a subpar Strokes so yeah.
If you want a good French band why not listen to Oui oui?
You get all that indie cred (Michel Gondry was the drummer) and better songs to boot.
And what is with all this "Grizzly Bear's only album is Vecktamist" vibe I get on every hip music list. There's been no mention of Yellow House (The only stuff of theirs I've heard).

Yellow House was better and most of Vecktamist puts me the fuck to sleep. I can't really see why it's on so many top of lists.

Oh dear
I think that this is actually my favourite album of the year, no matter what else I listen to I keep coming back to this one the most often.
<3 <3 <3
Though to be honest I think this album could have been better. I'm kind of worried about their next one, but maybe I'll be surprised.

hi ilu :>
I would have liked to see less songs taken directly from the "Let's Fall Back in Love" EP. :\

I agree with those two.

Impending Doom-The Serpant Servant
And Muse-The Resistance (worst muse album yet, and still great.)
