Music Monday 20080324

Late Monday afternoon, I found myself once again at Waterloo Records. First grab was the new The Hush Sound's album Goodbye Blues. I'm listening to it as I type this entry. I can safely say it's another hit for them. There are some wonderful moments when co-lead singer Greta Salpeter vocally leans a little towards Regina Spektor. As for The Hush Sound, I've always likened  them for a more adult sounding Panic At The Disco. Funny I should mention that since they are on tour together. BTW, that was not a shot at PATD. I also enjoy their music and saw them in concert last year.

For some reading martial I bought the new issues of both music magazines Paste and Skyscraper. I was delighted to see Gnarls Barkley on the cover of Paste. Their new album in physical form is out in stores today. Skyscraper had kind of ticked me of these past few weeks. On Skyscraper's MySpace page, they announced the latest issue was out. This was at the beginning of this march. Three weeks later, and after SXSW '08, it finally found it's way to Austin, TX.

To finally round out my music purchasing spree, I bought a ticket for the Ladytron/Datarock concert in June at Stubb's. I last saw Ladytron with CSS opening for them during their 2006 tour. I can't wait!
