Recently acquired music (actually acquired a few months ago. I neglected to write it down. Then, it disappeared from my “Recently Added”. But I’m obsessive compulsive and it HAD to be on a list. I had to make this one from memory, and look up the album names. It was minimally distressing. I’m glad it’s over).

• Wilderness Heart; Black Mountain
• Mines; Menomena (Hah, took me long enough to remember)
• Good Things; Aloe Blacc
• I’m Having Fun Now; Jenny and Johnny
• Four Song EP; Wolf Parade (I didn’t know that existed!)

Recently acquired music

• Gorilla Manor; Local Natives
• False Priest; Of Montreal
• Transference; Spoon
• Sometimes the Blues is Just a Passing Bird-EP; The Tallest Man on Earth

Conspicuous absence of Write About Love? I’m gonna be a good girl and wait to buy it. In a week, when I have a doctor’s appointment (near Amoeba). Otherwise, I would have downloaded it as soon as it leaked. And if they happen to have a used copy of Spoon’s Telephono, A Series of Sneaks, or Girls Can Tell, I’ll buy that, too. I figured I’ve stolen enough music from both bands.
