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!

Just wanted to post a quick update for this morning. I invited my friend Zach Hale to be a guest writer on the site. Zach has a prolific music library and is constantly digging up new artists/albums and passing them along to me. I wanted to give him a place to exercise a little creative freedom and am hoping that he’ll write album reviews and maybe blog a little about shows and life in his new hometown, the Windy City, Chicago.

Also, if you’re nosy you might have stumbled upon the other corner of this site, called America. It’s a few pictures of my friend ‘Zuba’ taken for a photography class. The assignment called for the use of a flag in the shots, so we tried to capture a little piece of your typical John Wayne’s America attitude. Enjoy!
