Elephant 6, Neutral Milk Hotel, haunting music, "not just another e6 album", quite possibly the best release since ITAOTS from E6.

Sampler #2

I'm actually somewhat not completely weighed down by school right now thanks to turkey break. Therefore, today I compiled a little bit of a sampler similar to the last one, that generally has no direction or theme. These are 22 songs that I really like and encourage y'all to listen to. There's something for everyone, or at least I hope there is.

1. Eels- 3 Speed
2. Big Star- the Ballad of El Goodo
3. Little Joy- the Next Time Around
4. the Music Tapes- Manifest Destiny
5. J Dilla- Won't Do
6. My Morning Jacket- Come Closer
7. Blitzen Trapper- Reno
8. George Roark- I Ain't A Bit Drunk
9. the Books- It Never Changes To Stop
10. the Unicorns- Stop
11. Dr. Dog- Little Bird
12. Tortoise- Gamera
13. Bonnie 'Prince' Billy- No More Workhorse Blues
14. De La Soul- Me Myself and I
15. the Flying Burrito Brothers- Hot Burrito #1
16. Fugazi- Turnover
17. Harry Nilsson- Without You
18. Ghostface Killad- Whip You With A Strap
19. Talk Talk- Ascension Day
20. Van Dyke Parks- the All Golden
21. Uncle Tupelo- Moonshiner
22. M. Ward- From a Pirate Radio Sermon, 1989

Aside from this, Kate's got a mix she's going to upload once she gets back from Florida.

As far as album uploads go, I'm going to try uploading the new Music Tapes a little later today and hopefully this mix inspires a request or two, so either leave a comment or shout in the C box over there --------------->

P.S. Is "sweatbee" a regional term? Does anyone outside of Appalachia know what that means?

Just leave me a comment.

A reminder to all the folks in the Lexington/Louisville area,

Tomorrow night, y'all gotta come to see the Englishman, the Swells, and most importantly, Will Oldham and the Picket Line.

Tickets are on sale at CD Central for 12$, I just got mine and Kate's, so I assume they are still selling them, though I've been told they might sell out by the end of the day.

Anyway, for the rest of you non-Kantucks, I'm working on a batch of uploads for tonight.

These include, but are not limited to:
Calexico- Garden Ruin (and a re-up of Carried to Dust)
something from the Cap'n Jazz/Joan of Arc scene. (I'm thinking American Football or Owls, but I haven't quite decided yet)
MAYBE the new Ludacris album
and if Merriweather Post Pavillion leaks, I'll post it.

Until it does though, the thread over at ateaseweb will suffice.

RIYL: Folktronica, incredibly underrated albums, albums that have hundreds of cultural references that though at first aren't very noticeable, once analyzed, are really quite impressive, one of my favorite electronic albums.
