Cheers for the tip, I've only heard their greatest hits (that's what started my interest in them..) then I got Doolittle and Surfer Rosa. Now I'm just trying to fill in my collection

Modern Life is War - Midnight in America
Kind of an accidental download. Clicked the wrong link but I like the band so I went for it.

A Place To Bury Strangers - A Place To Bury Strangers
I had about half the album, thought I'd fill the gap.

Crystal Castles - Crystal Castles
Been waiting for this for a while. Not a disappointment at all but not sure if it's up to par with the last album. Still very good and more listens are definitely needed. Doe Deer rocks my socks.

MGMT - Congratulations
It's pretty consistently enjoyable throughout the whole albums. Certainly a different feel than Oracular Spectacular and Climbing To New Lows. It's Working and Brian Eno are the tracks that have won me over the most. The whole semi-surfy vibe in It's Working is excellent and the little hook at the "It's working in your blood" part is irresistible.

I really like it, not quite as much as The Great Depression, but it's still a very good album.

Rage Against the Machine by RATM

The first two tracks are especially awesome...

I've got to give it a more thorough listen before I decide what my favorite tracks are, but so far my favorite is Road Signs Always Look Better Looking Over Your Shoulder.

Yes - Magnification

^ Sounds pretty interesting from what I've heard about it. Worth a try at least.

Charles Mingus - Mingus Ah Um

^ Another jazz classic I was yet to get my hands on 'til about half an hour ago.

Expecting good things.

Jaga Jazzist - One-Armed Bandit (2010)

Wasn't aware they had a new album that came out this year, suffice it to say it is definitely worth a look.

Fear Factory - Mechanize (2010)

Catching up on some of my 2010 releases that have passed me by. Gene Hoglan's drumming is awesome on this album and it switches from extreme to melodic very well.

Charred Walls of the Damned - Charred Walls of the Damned (2010)

Tim 'Ripper' Owens and Steve DiGiorgio on the same album? Hell yes!

Frightened Rabbit - The Winter of Mixed Drinks (2010)

I enjoyed their 2008 album The Midnight Organ Fight so I decided to give this one a try.

Barenaked Ladies - All In Good Time (2010)

I'm interested to see how they sound now that Steven Page is gone.
