New favorite VINYL Album?

for me the pickens have been thin this summer. bought a fair amount of dissapointments like rufus wainright, not his father. but Drive By Truckers didn't dissapoint. "THE BIG TO-DO" a real good spin. I will say the packaging and pressings have not dissapointed at all. They seem to be getting consistently better all the time.

Koegz sure got it right with "The Suburbs". Best of the year so far. I don't hear the gross compression that some have criticised. More like a slight softness from the vintage tube multitracking. Rich, dense, detailed mix with warm bottom end. Debts paid to Joy Division/New Order, Sonic Youth, Radiohead, Kinks, Pretenders.

Thanks Michaelph. I got the MOFI "Sea Change" in the mail today. MUCH better than the Geffen!
Do get a copy of "Broken Bells". You'll love it.

Eve Cassidy "Songbird"

Another recent release Golen Smog's "down by the old mainstream", definately worth a spin, especialy sides 3 and 4. Nice quality vinyl and very good sound. It has a very nice gatefold cover as well. Will not dissapoint.
