Favorite Albums This Year:
• Spoon - Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga
No earthshattering innovation here, just more solid work from Spoon.
• The New Pornographers - Challengers
It sounds like band member A.C. Nielsen took the reigns on this one. The canadian supergroup delivered their best work to date.
• The National - ...
Been a long time since I've given some reviews, so here's a big list of stuff:
Apple iPhone

I've only heard two songs, but I'm already hooked:
Phonograph - (self-titled)
Discovered this one in the latest issue of Paste Magazine. They were one of the Four to Watch for the month. Apparently they generated a lot of buzz opening for Wilco and they sort of are in that Wilco/Spoon ...
