Most of the time, I feel just behind the curve on what's new in the music world. I tend to be MONTHS behind on getting someone's latest album, or just borrowing it then not owning it till a year later - Then sometimes, I go in splurges, and just stack up the new music. This would be one of those cases for me. I have been in a music drought this summer, not really purchasing much music, I think with the exception of picking up SafetySuit, and The FRAY, . . oh, and the new Derek Webb, I didn't really add anything to my collection. While that list may already sound like a lot to some, it's a drop in the bucket compared with what is new, and what I *should* be keeping up with, since I tend to make a living in the same industry . . . I consider my purchasing and listening to as much music as I can as market research for me. I learn a LOT from other players, and artists.
In the last week, I have picked up a slew of new albums. I am thoroughly enjoying Imogen Heap's "Ellipse", Death Cab for Cutie "Narrow Stairs", and Kings of Leon "Only By The Night". I am digging all three of these selections. There is a good chance that by the end of this week I will also own MuteMath's New Album and I will also grab a copy of RadioHead's "In Rainbows". I know, I am WAY behind the curve on that one.
Let me know what you're listening to, what should I check out? I plan on checking out Kings of Convenience's new release this fall, as well as The Weepies. I can't wait till those two Albums drop.
