Woot!
Late Winter to Spring ‘07 promises to be a bumper crop for new music releases. There’s Arcade Fire, The Shins, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, and I think Wilco may even be due for one. Sometime later Radiohead may be tossing out new songs.
If you haven’t heard the Innocence Mission, then try them for something different than all the above. They’re releasing an album this March that I can’t wait to get my hands on. I don’t think anybody today writes more beautiful songs than those folks. Try Birds of My Neighborhood for an introduction.
Need anymore links?
[Why not one more… You can purchase and download Clap Your Hands new album here.]

I’d add Of Montreal, they have one in January. The side project whose name eludes me from the two guys in Wilco that aren’t Tweedy or those other two or three guys is evidently very good.
Good ol’ music.

It’s autumn defense, I think.

And so it is. Good work, Bos.

I’ve listened to Autumn defense a few times, but not bought anything yet.

I just listened to one of A.D’s songs at their site. It was really good.

You all listen to all the cool music. I was sheltered as a child. We made an offer on the house. Now we wait. Apparently AT we will be able to throw a snowball at your front window from where we are at — well not really but we could meet at the soup kitchen or something.

I love Innocence Mission. Ah, same age, same tastes…

I needs to hear some. Bos, I’m looking at you.
