04. John Maus: We Must Become Pitiless Censors of Ourselves: My voice of reason.

10. MGMT: Late Night Tales: Best mix of songs I’ve ever heard.

I was gonna say. Plus, the dudes in Smith Westerns are like barely out of high school, so I’m not going to begrudge them that one.

actually discovering a lot of stuff i like in these (often silly) lists. maybe it’s the obscurist in me, but i’m digging the two songs available for sampling on the bandcamp site by this anonymous portland act, whose 2011 album — to my long lost love — was listed by a fleet-fox as being the new disc he’s listened to most this year.

ha ha—this haircut is like the mullet of 2011
