What have you checked out recently...

The Urinals - Great band that reminded me of the Minutemen in the slightest. I'm surprised I didn't check them ealier.

Muse - I re-checked out Muse because boo boo said to. I'm still unsure if I like them or not, it may take a few more listens. The vocals are still bad though.

Death Sentence (Australian one) - This is some good stuff, hardcore from the 80s tickles my fancy but this is some of the better variety. ReminRAB me of Deep Wound meets another Australian favourite, Civil Dissident.
 
I just saw them live yesterday, they played an all instrumental set and blew me away. So I bought Stella. Great album. The vocals do add a lot.
 
I think Albini peaked with Atomizer. Raw, brutal, cold post-punk about midwesterners setting themselves on fire. Classic stuff.

Seriously, Kerosene is the greatest song ever.

Recent albums:

Yo La Tengo - Painful
The Pop Group - Y
Tom Waits - Swordfishtrorabones
Melvins - Houdini (thanx to the rabroad compilation thing)

I like all of these very much.
 
I liked Deftones, yes I'm a slow one but my friend wanted me to get her an album or 2. I'm looking forward to their new album, it's supposed to feature Serj Tanakian.
 
Best album of the moment - Asobi Seksu 'Citrus'. I haven't actually been this excited about any new music in a really long time. Even better, therer's a free mp3 download of the track 'Sooner' on the One Little Indian website - do it, I promise you won't be disappointed.
 
new Brightblack Morning Light ... most excellently soporific ... like listening to (and falling asleep in) a sunbeam in the late summer under a tree ... what more I can ask for in a record I do not know
