Emmy the Great's First Love again. I liked it at first, but now I really love it. I'm glad I kept listening to it.

Listening to Boat Beam's tracks on MySpace again in anticipation of their album's release on the 28th. Here's hoping Origami Records actually lets me order their album, anyway. I can't get through the checkout process because their dropdown list for states/provinces has nothing in it when you select United States as your country, and it won't let you proceed without selecting something, which is problematic. In the meantime, how could you not be excited for the album after reading this Google Translate interpretation of the information on the band/album on Origami Records's site?: There are three girls in Madrid at which someone had given string. There are three girls in Madrid with voices that are one-way tickets to faraway places and tools to protect you in the warmth of home. There are three girls in Madrid are a banda called Beam Boat. You may already have heard of it. Surely you're not going to quit for a long time.
Beam Boat is the sum of Josephine, Alisha and Aurora. One Australian, one American and one Spanish. It's no joke. Is a group that uses the strings of a guitar, viola, cello and piano music that sounds to weave a Debussy and Satie, but also to The Cinematic Orchestra and The Divine Comedy. Is a group that uses their voices to sing songs such as Fiona Apple or Tori Amos but also as writers who sing like Sylvia Plath or Süskind if Patrick were dedicated to it. Boat Beam inspired by great music of Johann Johannson, The Dresden Dolls and PJ Harvey, but also other delicious things. Their songs are fed by their experiences. His music sounds like books, movies, travel. A life.
Josephine came to Madrid in 2006 after passing through world and having played in bands in his country as a projection Terapin and Sparkadia. Alisha met in Spain, which had violated its service combos classical, jazz and rock. And together, they gave with Aurora, a cellist who had stepped up tables Madrid half. Boards were able to square the circle with only three vertices. Call it a miracle. Call it destiny. Call Boat Beam. The fact is that since joined their talent and effort, everything sounded different on the underground scene in the capital. It heard the rumor of a group that filled the halls with a repertoire touching. Comments were read initiated enthralled by the thrill of discovering something great. She felt the contagious energy of those who had seen playing with his feelings by playing with their voices. No longer a rumor, it is no longer underground. Boat Beam now get their first album and the whole world will be able to verify the truth of all this. Even these lines. There are three girls in Madrid that pop classic, current, timeless. There are three girls in Madrid crushes forever the first stanza. There are three girls in Madrid who have rope while.

. Grady, Cup of Cold Poison Not sure how big they are in the States. Sports the lead singer from Big Sugar and a great emphasis on a guitar sound that has strong hints of a bluesy, southern guitar rock style.
With great power comes Awesome irresponsibility.

Jake Shimabukuro - Live
He really is a badass on the ukulele, and this is a very nice-sounding live disc.

There were plenty of nights where I would feel like singing the "Hallelujah Chorus" when the baby would go to sleep. It is a wonderful sound!

Listening to the “Battlestar Galactica” seasons 1-3 soundtracks. There are over 75 tracks with quite a variety. Most common genre represented is what I would call ambient. Very neat stuff.

Camera Obscura - My Maudlin Career
It's pleasant enough, but it hasn't grabbed me like their previous album so far. A couple of songs are catchy enough. I'll have to keep listening to see if it grows on me.
