what should you buy at the record store today?

This new Bat For Lashes album "Two Suns" is pretty rad if you're into spooky ethereal Kate Bush type music. Also; IT HAS A DUET WITH SCOTT WALKER ON IT.










If you need a hard copy of a quintessential Blur album, you can't go wrong with "Modern Life Is Rubbish". Basically it's a toss up between this and "Parklife" for the best classic Blur album, but the sentiment behind MLIR seems appropriate if you're supporting your local record store. Later Blur albums "13" and "Think Tank" veer closer to the current Damon Albarn eclectic sound (which is great). "Think Tank" is seriously a favorite of all time even without Graham.
