Two Highly Partisan Music Recommendations:

Favourite Colours, The Sadies: This is nothing like the kind of music I normally listen to, but for some reason it really resonated. They're a Toronto psychadelic country rock band that combine '70s style with '00s sensibility, or, as one article put it, "alt-country that's more alt than country".

Nouvelle Vague: Punk and New Wave classics (Guns of Brixton! Too Drunk to Fuck! Making Plans For Nigel!) sung in a cool, bossa nova, lounge style. Very fun, very funky.

One Highly Personal Writing Recommendation:

Groceries, Groceries Everywhere, But Not a Bite to Eat, Dancing Brave: This is totally me. I am constantly staring at the fridge full of food, unable to find anything to eat. And of course, there's the peanut butter.

I require this music immediately and shall seek it out.

Excellent. I believe you can sample a few songs on their website, but I'm sure you're much better at finding music on the 'net than I.

I've been meaning to check out the Sadies for a really long time but I keep missing their gigs. Sigh. Maybe I should just breakdown and buy a CD....

Thanks for that groceries link - very (scarily) true! Sigh.

This is why, if I became a millionaire, the first thing I would do would be hire a personal chef, so that I never again would have to be responsible for the fridge.
