the Stuart Murdoch makes me think he should make a minimal, solo record in the style of this song, closer than ever to Sinister

Wait - this is out?!

Shannon Whirry & the Bad Brains, Monday, 16 February 2009 15:54 (seventeen years ago)

Tomorrow.

Personally I'd be interested to hear the "exclusive" tracks from Dirty Projectors with David Byrne, the Books, Grizzly Bear, Antony, Spoon, Yo La Tengo and Blonde Redhead but the rest seems like shit. The thought of buying an album with tracks by Bon Iver, the Decemberists, Sufjan Stevens, Stuart Murdoch and Conor Oberst makes my blood go cold.

Will probably just download the good stuff, listen once, throw away.

Yeah, because those silly AIDS charities don't need your money.

Spoon song sounds very good,
i wonder if thats how their next record will sound like

Zeno, Monday, 16 February 2009 22:20 (seventeen years ago)

It's on Spotify

I was curious about the album before, but listening to it now I'll probably get it this weekend.

The National are doing some sort of special on XMU right now about this album.
