yeah it's one of my go-to background albums. although browsing through your list, that might be replaced by martin medeski and wood pretty soon. i also saw grizzly bear when they came through chicago a while back and highly recommend it. they didn't drop any of the layers for the live show.

Because I'm completely unfamiliar with her works.

I find that Neko Case's music is THAT much better when given the Chipmunks treatment. (pops)

I don't have enough brown and grey "vintage" clothing to listen to Neko Case.

you should check her out, either solo or with the new pornographers - she's been kicking around for at least a decade.

I seriously had no clue who she was. However, given what you and truth_is_stranger_than_fishin have listed as some of your "best of 2009 releases," I'll give her a listen. Sonic Youth, Leonard Cohen, and The Flaming Lips are at the top of my '09 new releases list. For the record, U2's new disc is not.

the only song i've heard off of the new flaming lips is the one with karen oh, and i'm not sure what to think - how's the rest? also, i highly recommend "the dark night of the soul" by dangermouse and sparklehorse.

It's a solid release; it took me a couple of listens before I really appreciated it. It's worth procuring.

And I will look into The Dark Night of the Soul.

I haven't listened to Neko Case in a while. Now I have a new album to listen to.

48, and heard of all three mentioned in TFA.

And may I put in a good word for St. Vincent's (Annie Clark) "Actor" album?

Haven't listened to Neko Case in a long time. Perhaps I should check it out.

Perhaps I also should have just read Mobkey's comment and either simply said "this". Jesus, that was weird.

And to make matters worse, the word "either" randomly appeared in that post. The Faildome, I have entered it.
