List of music you should be listening to if you value my opinion and feel like doing what I say.

• Wincing the Night Away by The Shins
• Chutes Too Narrow by The Shins
  
• Bloc Party by Bloc Party
• Funeral by Arcade Fire
• Misery is a Butterfly by Blonde Redhead
• Decemberunderground by AFI
• Final Straw by Snow Patrol
• Day is Done by Brad Mehldau
• Greatest Hits by The Cars
• OK Computer by Radiohead
• Hail to the Thief by Radiohead
• Orange Rhyming Dictionary by Jets to Brazil
• Sam's Town by The Killers
• Commit This to Memory by Motion City Soundtrack
• lots of Muse, Pat Metheny, Pink Floyd, more Radiohead, Sting, Tori Amos, Talking Heads, etc.

So there you go, another list that proves that I'm more interested in myself than writing anything that might actually be interesting for all of you. "Thai food, feminist prose, and angry girl music of the indie rock persuasion."
