The Rip
Music is pretty much awesome. This week, Jess bought...
- Boo! Human by Joan Of Arc
- Plague Park by Handsome Furs
... and I bought...
- The Magic Position by Patrick Wolf
- Planet Of Ice by Minus The Bear
- Maplewood by Maplewood (they feature the drummer from Nada Surf)
... and have the following on their way from Amazon at some point...
- Narrow Stairs by Death Cab For Cutie
- I Know You're Married But I Have Feelings Too by Martha Wainwright
- At Mount Zoomer by Wolf Parade
- The Imagination Stage by Eric Matthews
- Saturdays = Youth by M83
Not all of these were released this year. I was in GAP when I heard 'Throwin' Shapes' by Minus The Bear (identified thanks to the awesome Patrick) and 'The Magic Position' by Patrick Wolf, a man I am already a huge fan of. I picked up Maplewood because it was $3 in the place I bought Minus The Bear From. And I think the M83 is from last year, I ordered it because our friend Tim likes them and sometimes raves over bands I also love. We're going to see a band called Assassins with him tonight.
On a related note, right now, I am continuing to rip all of Jess' music. We just picked up an Apple Time Capsule - a wireless hard drive on which I can put all of our music for both of us to access without needing to plug in to anything.
