A curious sample of what I’ve been listening most to in November. Randomly rounded off at selections from 20 Artists:

“Here’s Your Future” – The Thermals “Sleep Sandwich” and “How’s Forever Been Baby” – Elvis Perkins “Black Wave” – The Shins (from the forthcoming Wincing the Night Away) “Trouble” and the “Raised by Wolves EP”- Voxtrot “All Fires” – Swan Lake “Rotation of Crops” – The Prayers and Tears of Arthur Digby Sellers “I Found A Reason” – Cat Power (velvet underground cover) “Cold Wind” – The Arcade Fire (from the Six Feet Under Soundtrack) “Woman is Nigger of the World” – John Lennon (acoustic) “Girl From The North Country” – Bob Dylan, featuring Johnny Cash “The Trees Get Wheeled Away” – Bright Eyes (live at the Gypsy Tea Room, 10/05/02) “Paint’s Peeling” – Rilo Kiley “Connect For” – Common Market (complete w/KEXP shout-outs, from Live at KEXP, Vol II) “Nature of the Experiment” – Tokyo Police Club “90-Mile Water Wall” and “Mr. November” – The National (from Black Sessions # 230 04/29/05) “Lucky” – Radiohead “Worked Up So Sexual” and “Call, Call” – The Faint “The Eraser” – Thom Yorke “Race You” – The Figurines Neutral Milk Hotel: the near perfect In The Aeroplane Over the Sea. Which, if I can be so bold– is my favorite album of all time.
