    Meant to post this over the weekend but forget, so thanks GP!

    I added too much this month. I'm feeling overwhelmed listening to it all.

    mTraks

    Black Tambourine - OneTwoThreeFour: Nice little EP.
    BNLX - EP #5: Local noise rock act that I love.
    BNLX - EP #6: Ditto.
    BNLX - EP #7: Haven't heard yet as it was a temporary loss with the great mTraks crash. I'm assured it will be back and downloadable soon.
    The Deeep - Life Light: Love, love, love this album.
    Prinzhorn Dance School - Clay Class: Great new post punk.
    Sex Worker - The Labor of Love: A bit disappointing.
    Violens - True: On Slumberland, so if you know Slumberland you know what this sounds like.

    Bandcamp

    Horrid Red - Celestial Joy: Dark post punk. The LP stands up to their earlier EPs.

    Amazon

    Santigold - Master of My Make-Believe: Very good.
    Here We Go Magic - A Different Ship: No where near as good as their last album. Disappointing.
    Hospitality - s/t: Great indie pop.
    La Sera - Sees the Light: Ditto.
    Flaming Lips - Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots: Filling a hole.

    Google Music

    Andrew Bird - Break it Yourself: It's Andrew Bird. It's good.
    Beastie Boys - Paul's Boutique: It's sad I didn't already have this.
    DMX - It's Dark and Hell is Hot: Google Music sales are really helping me fill holes in 80s and 90s hip hop.
    Eric B. & Rakim - Follow the Leader: Ditto.
    LL Cool J - Mama Said Knock You Out: Thirdo.
    The Rolling Stones - Beggars Banquet: It also helps for non-hip hop.

    At Shows

    Mally and the Sundance Kid - The Last Great: Local hip hop and it's really good.
    Prof - King Gampo: Local hip hop that I do not like. At all. Luckily it was free.

    ETA: I totally forgot 7digital

    Beach House - Bloom: Highly recommended.
    Spiritualized - Sweet Heart Sweet Light: Seems a bit poppier than much of Pierce's stuff, but it's very, very good.
