Iron & Wine: Ghost on Ghost | Whoa. A whole different sound. Interested in your feedback.

The Flaming Lips: The Terror | "Sounding almost post-apocalyptic in its scabrous, searching bleakness — Coyne himself describes the album as "disturbing"..." Yikes. 

The Shouting Matches: Grownass Man | Includes Justin Vernon of Bon Iver playing mostly falsetto-less blues-rock. I hear Wilco, Black Keys, & other flavors here. This isn't your hipsters' Justin Vernon. And it may be impossible for this to have been recorded in a rural cabin. Check it out.

The Knife: Shaking the Habitual | One of my favorite, creepy, beat-centric bands. Get ready for quirk.
