Further Seems Forever's new song and Daytrader's Twelve Years

Mae - The Everglow
Take That - Progress/Progressed
The Graduate - Anhedonia
Go On
Stand Up to Cancer

The new Abandoned Pools.

Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin
Stars
The Strokes

New Stars and band of Horses have been dominating my ears. The St. Vincent & David Byrne album is pretty great as well.

Far- Listening Game
Radiohead-Kid A (first time listening to it beginning to end yesterday while playing Counter Strike....wow)

and Boardwalk Empire season two is filling my BB void rather well for now.
