Yes, I only got it at the weekend - a boxed set of CDs, not sure Jonah would like the provenance as there are 2 albums on each CD - but whilst liking all, it is one that I have enjoyed a lot so far. Oddly the set does not include Workin' amongst the six original LPs
I've just been reading about the Civil Wars currently touring the UK and about their 'new release' CD Barton Hollows - it was even reviewed by the Guardian as a new release. I downloaded it from emusic ages ago on the recommendation of someone here. Needless to say it is no longer available on emusic UK as it has now come out on Columbia! But the article made me want to play it again
update - just been checking Amazon UK where I went for the image. They are selling a 12 track CD only version from Sensibility Records issued in 2011. My version from emusic has 14 tracks, whilst the Columbia 2012 version has 18 tracks as both CD and mp3!
Ivan Fedele - Maja, etc. MIght have been an AmieStreet purchase. He is an "Italian composer of mostly orchestral, chamber, choral, vocal, and piano works that have been performed throughout the world." (last.fm) Here is Maja on YouTube.
Prompted by this album's being featured on Destination:Out, where you can hear Don play 'Well You Needn't' and absolutely tear it apart. What a talent. I got it at mTraks.
Wow, this is on spotify a full week ahead of its release date. My most eagerly anticipated new release of 2012. Pjusk - Tele.
ETA, sounds really good so far. Not quite as rhythmic as Sart, but has maybe a bit more of Sart's dark tension that Sval's more ethereal hypnotics - definitely Pjusk's sound. Will be buying this ASAP. I hope those spotify ads are not on the CD version.

ETA: This album is free here, and if you like post-rock is quite good.
