The Monochrome Set - Love Zombies
The Monochrome Set - The Strange Boutique

Loving these two albums. A post-punk band that's fairly overlooked (I've never checked them out till this past month, as they don't seem to be mentioned as much as many others in the genre). Very quirky, well-written songs and humorous, imaginative lyrics - they're like a slightly more experimental and less poppy XTC. Cannot believe I overlooked them for so long.

Also digging:

The Smiths - Strangeways Here We Come and The Queen Is Dead

I only listen to The Smiths very occasionally, I grew up listening to the band so I'm very familiar with them but it still blows me away how good they were. The guitar riff in "The Boy With The Thorn In His Side" is one of the best of all time as far as I'm concerned.
