Spun this about three times and I'm proud to say that I think I'm addicted

Been listening to this on repeated spins as well:

(His three track EP)

(^^From his EP)

(^^ From his full length debut)

Very enjoyable, mellow, calming stuff. One of my definite favourites from this year.

^Wow thanks for posting this, after hearing that song I went to download the full length, and it just finished. Can't wait to listen to all of it.

Glad you're liking it mate

And I'm sure you'll enjoy the rest of the album as well!

Generationals - Con Law

Been digging this one lately. Recommended if you like Peter Bjorn & John, indie pop and of course their 60s influences.

The Naked & Famous "Passive Me, Aggressive You"
Wasn't expecting much going in, but let me tell you, this is one hell of a pop album. Hipsters pay attention.

Violent & Funky · 09-15-2010, 12:35 AM

I guess I've been downloading a lot of EPs lately haha.

Tweak Bird - Reservations EP (2008)

Somebody else mentioned this band in another thread and I am just hooked by their simple, guitar and drums style that is very reminiscent of DFA 1979. 'Shiver' is badass.

Treepeople - Just Kidding (1993)

Heard 'Cartoon Brew' and fell in love. I think I like this style better than Built to Spill, to be honest.

Mudhoney - Superfuzz Bigmuff EP (1988)

Obviously I've read plenty about this EP, but it was listening to 'Touch Me I'm Sick' that sold me. Classic song (yes, I know it wasn't originally a part of the EP)...

The Thermals - Personal Life

i just got it and am listening to it right now for the first time....i'm on track 3 and already singing along....a nice return to straight up catchy fuzzed out tunes....i am sure this will make my top ten of the year

A classic. It was always a bit upsetting that Mudhoney never really got the recognition they deserved. At the very least, the Big Muff would not have been nearly as popular.

Harvey Danger - Little By Little...

Third, final and undoubtedly best album by one of the best bands to be born out of late '90s mainstream alternative (despite the ubiquity and obnoxiousness of their one hit). Sharp, biting piano and guitar driven pop with a lot of gorgeous musical flourishes (see: the french horns on "Little Round Mirrors") and wry lyrics that range from good to brilliant.

If you don't know this album, I promise you it's better than you think it is.
