Yndi Halda Enjoy Eternal Bliss
When I heard this album for the first time, it gave me the feeling I had when I first listened to Explosions in the Sky's The Earth Is Not a Cold Dead Place. The feeling was the same and the sweeping dynamics apply to both albums, but Yndi Halda can somehow extend those boundaries of bombast and anticipation resulting in something that's not just another post rock album.

Iron And Wine The Sea and the Rhythm EP
Feelings of sorrow spread through morose keys + half-step-down tuning makes for an above average EP. Sam Beam's talent shines through especially on the tracks Beneath the Balcony, The Sea and the Rhythm, and Someday the Waves. An EP worth picking up and one that won't tire out too quickly.

The Books The Lemon of Pink
The two North Adams, Massachusetts natives Paul de Jong and Nick Zammuto have created in The Lemon of Pink, sonic seizures fueled by an acoustic set, sounds samples, singing + a kitchen sink. One of the most inspired albums I've listened to lately.
