Daddy, take me to Best Buy!

While OIT has sabotaged our plans to update the Mindset website, here's a list of new releases for the week:

Dean & Britta - Back Numbers
This husband-and-wife team are back with a new offering of covers and original material. One Music Committee member who goes by the initials C.W. compared it to a mellow[er] version of the Raveonettes, but that guy [or girl] probably didn't know what he was talking about.

Do Make Say Think - You, You're A History In Rust
The fifth studio album from these Canadian post-rockers will feature the verse-chorus-verse formula that such bands have eschewed for, well, forever. That idea sounds so conventional that it's experimental.

Kaiser Chiefs - You, You're A History In Rust
Well, this album is only out in the UK and Europe. We American folks will have to wait another whole month for it to hit shores. If you're really hardcore, you can always import it, I guess. Or, you can book a flight to London, hit up Virgin/HMV/Fopp and fly back, just in time for dinner at South.

Matt Wertz - Everything in Between
A new album from this guy. Umm, he sounds like John Mayer, right?

For those of you, like me, who exclusively listen to Arcade Fire and nothing else, you'll be delighted to know that you can stream Neon Bible in its entirety over at the website of those British tastemakers, NME.

Another solution to the Kaiser Chief's album dilemma: suck up to the editor and get her to import it for you...

(now accepting flex points and buttons of dead celebrities.)
