    I give it a solid 3.5. I enjoyed the album. Short but pretty packed. And upbeat.
    However, MGMT came to NZ (or are coming.. I forget the date) and are playing multiple gigs *only in Auckland*. For that they receive a big fat middle finger.

    For similar (but IMHO, better) check out Phoenix. And I’ve just been listening to the Yeah Yeah Yeahs new album too. Both good.

The Guy Who Wanted To Love Music

I always wanted to love music, but never really fell in love with music. I did love collecting music, but what’s the use of that if you don’t enjoy listening to it.

This is the start of my journey to loving music. Why don’t you join me and we can discover music together.

    I use pitchfork, the onion AV club, and NPR. However these really are all geared toward indie music at the mo. But check out their top lists for 2009, which can be quite interesting.

    I also use sites like allmusic to find ’similar artists’. It doesn’t work that well, but sometimes you find something good.

    Loved your honesty. The music I love is the music that shares my philosophy of life.
