Only seven tracks long, but after getting through them you feel like you've been running on the on the side of the road in the dark with a dim flashlight in the middle a season that isn't quite sure what season it is, because one second it'll be hot, and the next you'll be afraid frostbite will set in.

'08's Music to Love More Than Music: Love, Pt. 2

Love (<)
The Atomica Project - Grayscale
Her voice reminds me of the female vocals in interludes on Scandinavian Death Metal albums that I used to listen to in High school, which is why I was instantly attracted to it. The song writing makes me think that this duo was in a dark place when they were forming these songs. This was a hard album to recommend to some friends, but I can only imagine that's more a fault on my side than the album's
The Atomica Project - Into the Arms of Strangers

Everyone went bat ... shit ... crazy over this album. I liked it, for sure. Loved it in fact. But some of the songs just got old over a short period of time, and I found myself skipping songs to get to some of my more favorite songs. I would not doubt that this is one of the smartest albums of the year, but I certainly didn't like it as much as I liked some other albums this year.
Fleet Foxes - Tiger Mountain Peasant Song

The Sound of Animals Fighting - The Ocean and the Sun
Of course, one of the more crazy albums of the year. By far the best studio album that has come out of this little project. I'm glad to say/hear that there really does seem to be a good bunch of music behind all this craziness, but it's still not for everyone. Still, a fun experiment and all that jazz. now sure what I'm talking about when I say experiment? then check out the Wiki on this project.

"What a Life Indeed When That Ancient Seed"

Fleet Foxes - Sun Giant EP
Verdict: Love More (<3)+
There are few examples of EPs that truly win me over, but in this case, it didn't even take more than a few seconds for me to fall madly in love with this band. I've recently acquired their new album, and will be reviewing that one as soon as I get around to listening to it, so I'm going to keep this short. Fleet Foxes make plants want to grow. That's how rad this EP is. Not a bad song in the bunch
