In The Loop

Currently Listening: albums I think you should hear.

Athlete//Beyond The Neighbourhood
This is one of those UK bands you 'hear of' but never hear... until you're forced to while shopping for clothing.  I was caught off-guard, quickly surrendering to the lyricism of 'Hurricane,' so I took out my trusty iPhone and tagged the song with that nifty Shazam application.  Picked up the album later that day.

My Favorite Highway//How to Call A Bluff
Sing-along rock for the Hanson in all of us.  This album is so surprisingly sustainable.  The minute it seems to be drifting to the realm of unoriginality, it takes a turn and rejuvenates itself.  It's exciting and heartfelt through and through.

Rookie Of The Year//Sweet Attention
The long-awaited followup to 2006's The Goodnight Moon.  A fun album from one of my favorite bands, this album is truly for everyone.  Stuck in my head.
