Two albums that I don't know how in the hell I forgot...

Wolf Parade - Apologies to the Queen Mary - Great album from this group from Montreal. Issac Brock from Modest Mouse produced the album.

Editors - The Back Room - This cd is amazing. I can listen to every song front to back. If you are a fan of Joy Division and Interpol check them out.

This came out in 2004. Great album though. *edit* I think the re-release came out in 2005.

This is the cover to the one I got that droped in 2004...is it the same cover as yours Buzz?

Shiping News - Flies the Fields

Nightmare of You - Nightmare of You

British Sea Power - Open Season

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - B-sides and Rarities (old material but fuck it...it came out this year)

It's cool Buzz. I was tripping at first because I was thinking I know I have had that album for almost two years...but I wasn't sure lol. They are supposed to be droping a remix album for Strange We Should Meet Here this year. I hope maybe a new album too...but they are touring Europe right now so who knows.

Well Mike (I think Mike, the dude that screams) got a vocal chord infection or some shit so they cancelled the UK tour... Hopefully they'll get to the album sooner now... Aye brother, you need to check out The Receiving End of Sirens. You'll love their album.
