What kinds of new stuff has everyone been listening to? I’m getting more and more into music from bygone eras as I become increasingly displeased with what’s on the radio waves, but there is some good music being produced. My favorite three albums of the past year have been Down II (bustle in the hedgerow), Audioslave, and Queens of the Stone Age’s “Songs for the Deaf”. I’m more into hard rock, but I’m interested to hear about anything new that might be a little obscure. ---

Oops I actually think the Death cab for cutie CD came out in late 2001. It’s still a great cd though.
