Life of the World to Come (Dig): Mountain Goats

First to recommend

Description

I think anytime we get new material from The Mountain Goats (and we get it a lot), it's cause for excitement. Their newest, however, is particularly doing me right. It's this raw, genuine folk rock, but that is all inspired and named after verses in the bible.

Greetings from Michigan: The Great Lake State: Sufjan Stevens

First to recommend

Description

Like most of Sufjan's stuff, this album is often overlooked -- or overshadowed from Illinois, an undeniable best album of the decade. Michigan though has it's high points and is certainly worth owning too.

I've never had the privilege of lsitening to any of their previous stuff. Their newest record though is good enough to make me want their entire catalog. It's pysch folk like none other (and in stores Oct 20).

Live at Reading [CD/DVD]: Nirvana

First to recommend

Description

As if any show Nirvana ever did weren't instantly iconic, the teo that stick out the most are, of course, MTV Unplugged and The Reading Festival. We've seen the previous, but finally they're releasing the 1992 festival show. I've been watching video of it on YouTube and... wow!

Saying that this record changed my perspective on music appreciation is an understatement. It blew it away, and showed me what really, really beautiful music is. Listen to it on vinyl and it'll change your whole perspective on life.

SMiLE: Brian Wilson

First to recommend

Description

The man needs no introduction and certainly doesn't need my endorsement. However, this 2004 record shows that he's still got. It's still classic, surf pop here.

This, the one and only studio album from Postal Service proves to be more than enough. It may not be on par with my current taste in music, but it's innovative sounds have proven timeless in my life.

The Moon & Antarctica: Modest Mouse

First to recommend

Description

For me, Modest Mouse have never been a name synonymous with awesomeness. They were actually always just the Float On guys or Good News for People Who Love Bad News, but before that, we got this one. It's a truly iconic rock album
