1) Hot Water Music - No Division
I originally didn't like this album very much.. But it fits the mood
I've been in over the last month or so.
2) The Beach Boys - Smiley Smile/Wild Honey
Technically, I shouldn't be including this since I just got it
yesterday, but both of these albums are AMAZING. Harmonies +
Handclaps = A happy Brad.
3) Usra Minor - This Dot's A Mess
A local band featuring an ex-member of Last Call, a band that
played with Remington and the Appleseed Cast and would've been
involved with The Emo Diaries Volume Four if Deep Elm wasn't
stupid. Since I can't direct you to an Ursa Minor page, check out
some Last Call mp3s:

4) Small Brown Bike - Our Own Wars
". . .your family cried, and your friends all cried, i finally cried when
i realized what love is. sitting on my bathroom floor asking "why?"
i think you're stronger for wanting to stay alive. . ."
5) Drive Like Jehu - Yank Crime
I think this went out of print recently. That makes me sad.

MIA: The new manRay19 CD, "Shady Hinting Shady". It hasn't
shown up in my mailbox yet, but I've had about half of the cd stuck
in my head constantly over the last week...

And on the turntable...
1) Le Shok - We Are Electrocution (LP)
Quoting them from Michfest: "We're not a political band, we're a
dance band." Fun. I'm not in a bad mood all the time, as my
constant listening to this band shows...
2) Saetia - Eronel (7")
Even if Billy now hates his lyrics (or, at least, makes it sound like
he does) this is still an AMAZING release. I had my All Night Lock-
in/Party thingy last night for my senior class (I graduated last night!
Woo-hoo!) and I spent a good hour or so with the "there is no
happy here, there is no happy here..." part of "Some Natures Catch
No Plagues" stuck in my head. [Trust me -- the night was better
than that may make it sound. Not much though...]

Buy all of this stuff. =)
