Girls - Album - A while back, I posted their music video for the show-stoppin' centerpiece of this here album, Hellhole Ratrace. Look it up in the time machine on the right side of your screen. While no song on this collection quite matches up to the epicness of that one you've already heard, great songs nonetheless abound. This is a great first album you're gonna wanna be in on so you can snobbishly declare it's your favorite of theres years down the road when they've put out other, bigger, better albums.
Owen - New Leaves - Honestly, at this point in my life, I can't really claim to give a shit about Mike Kinsella's emo project anymore. But if you do, check this out, because it's his best yet.
mum - Sing Along To Songs You Don't Know - Super good music to fall asleep to. If that's something you do. If not, why not try singing along to the songs the first time you spin the record? Should be fun! If you do attempt said experiment, be sure to record that shit and post it in the replies, because it sounds like something that would be really fun for all of us here at Cake Police to laugh at (it gets lonely in the internet). Especially with song titles and lyrics such as Kay-Rey-Ku-Ku-Ko-Kex.
WHY? - Eskimo Snow - Last but certainly not least (yes, I put this last so that I could type that, wanna fight about it?), the newest record from the big kid on the Anticon block. Longtime fans of WHY? will dig this, because they (I) are pretty much gonna eat up anything Yoni Wolf throws out there. Honestly, though, he has done, and I'm sure will do much better. Yoni has called this album more "experimental" than previous WHY? releases, but to my ears all that appears to mean is less tight. Still, listen to the album for the lyrics, as ever.
