New music!!!

There is so much new music coming out. Its actually pretty great...new mewithoutYou, Blood Brothers, Isis, Grizzly bear (already out i think), Justin Timberlake (i know i know i know). Its exciting. Music is such a huge part of my life and it always keeps me going with work and such. Gotta have that background noise.

One record that really stands out to me is the new mewithoutYou. It is the most challenging of all of their releases and contains an honesty that is unparalleled to any other records out there right now. Jeremy Enigk (Sunny Day Real Estate) does quite a few cameos on it. I also here he has been working on his second solo record with Matt Johnson (Roadside Monument, Unwed Sailor, Ninety Pound Wuss) on drums...should be unbelievable.



The Blood Brothers record is also a stand-out release. Its hard-hitting and probably their most diverse record to date. Really excited about that one. Love that cover art too. So simple and nice. It was produced by Mark Trombino (ex-Drive Like Jehu) who has recorded the likes of the Icarus Line and Jimmy Eat World. Great record. Powerful.

Again, great moment for music. Oh yeah, and the new Bob Dylan...the man is a genius.
