A Hello from Zach

Greetings from the Windy City, where sunshine is plentiful and the Cubs are seeking their first World Series in 100 years (it’s gonna happen!).

Some of you may have heard of me. For those who haven’t, what an empty life you must lead.

Not much to report, really, other than my indebtedness to Paul for providing an outlet for my pretentious ramblings. Oh, and here’s a cool video. Watch it.

Five Albums

While Zach is getting up to speed, I thought I would post a list of five albums he recently recommended to me. In Zach’s eyes, these are some of the best albums that have been released so far in 2008. Look for reviews of each album in the near future. Here’s the list (in no particular order with Pitchfork rating):

• Fleet Foxes by Fleet Foxes (9.0)
• Third by Portishead (8.8)
• Microcastle by Deerhunter
• At Mount Zoomer by Wolf Parade (7.7)
• In Ghost Colors by Cut Copy (8.8)

Enjoy!
