Elvis Depressedly released Mickey's Dead for free on Bandcamp on Tuesday and it's really good and you need it. - http://elvisdepressedly.bandcamp.com/album/mickeys-dead

Confess by Twin Shadow isn't as good as Forget, but it has its moments.

Stagnant Pools' Temporary Room is what it would sound like if The Strokes were a shoegaze band

The Idler Wheel... hasn't gotten old yet either.

I see you listened to Dignan Porch, Catwalk, and Soft Metals. What did you think of them?

I am obsessed with Catwalk. Those 69 plays are basically all the two CT singles. I only got their earlier stuff yesterday. Dignan Porch is pretty cool. They have a new song on Soundcloud now that I like better than a lot of the other stuff, so I'm definitely looking forward to that album. And I've listened to Soft Metals before this week, but I was just in the mood

I loved that doco, but had only spun LCW a week before so resisted the urge to revisit it yet again. Was sad to read Judy has left the band.

Oh, and I'll second Celebration Rock. I like every track except the cover, can't believe I would reccommend anyone pay a full album price for six new originals (Younger Us was released in 2010) but it's definitely worth it. So. Much. Energy.
