Antlers - Hospice

I listened to this album only once start to finish - and it absolutely distroyed me. I was bawling my eyes out by the end of it - So, of course I fell in love with it immediately lol. Seriously though, promise me that even if you don't like the music - you'll read the lyrics from the first song to the last. Even while writting this I'm an emotional wreck. Life altering - I swear to god.

Spoon - Kill the Moonlight

This is another album that I think is fun, but I don't really take it too seriously...  Definitely worth a listen though. I used to love driving to this album. I think they're classified as "indie" but they have a good crisp sound. The reason I listened to this album to begin with was because I loved their song "I summon you" So, even if you don't listen to this entire album - listen to that song.

Muse - The Resistance

This soundtrack actually is pretty epic. The song 'the resistance' quickly climbed the ladder of my favourites. Muse has such a unique sound, with amazing lyrics that have multiple levels of complexity. I don't think I've heard a Muse song that I don't like, and this CD did not disappoint.

Twilight Soundtrack (of awesome)

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this soundtrack. And instead of adding both the New Moon and Eclipse soundtracks on here too, I just want to say that I LOVE LOVE LOVE them too. They have a certain mood too them, that is a mix between rock and chill. The songs really flow together, and put together the story. I even listen to them while reading the books. Some songs to listen to:
Flightless Bird, American Mouth by Iron & Wine
Don't You Mourn the Sun - Mimi

Neutron Star Collision - Muse <3

Strokes - Is This It

I don't know if you remember - but we actually listened to these guys when we walked home from school. "Juicebox" and "Last Night" were the songs that I had. Anyway, this album is pretty good. Not epic, but a really good listen. They have a really unique sound...

Live - Throwing Copper

I don't really have much to say about this album, I haven't dissected yet, so I can't really tell you my deep feelings about it. But what I have heard, I like. They're songs dont seem to have very long or complicated lyrics, but they are meaningful. Anyway, hope  you listen!

Arkells - Jackson Square


I saw these guys live, and they are so entertaining its almost unbearable. Its awesome. Anywho, its funny, I fell in love with this album immediatley, but soon after i started to hate it, but then I fell in love again. I don't get it. But in conclusion, its worth a listen. 

PS they're even more amazing because they're from Hamilton.

Metric - Fantasies


As of right now i'm completely addicted to this album. I've been listening to it in my car for a couple of months now. i'm usually not a huge fan of female vocalists (especially when it comes to rock), but this chick, i love. So please, if you get the chance, listen to it.

Hoosiers - Trick to Life


These guys are a little strange. They have some really bubbly tunes, but then some really deep and meaningful songs aswell. They have this certain sound to them too... for lack of a better word they kinda have an indie vibe to them. Either way, this album is really good, and you should listen to it.

Weezer - Red Album


All i've got to say about these guys, is that they're awesome.

Coldplay - Viva La Vida

Up until now, i've only listened to coldplay on the radio, and i absolutely love their songs. Just recently i've decided to listen to an entire album, this is the only one i've listened to so far, and i've got to say i like this cd, but i was kinda expecting more. the songs on the radio seem so epic and moving, i was really hoping all of their songs were like that. Not to say that the album was bad, its a beautiful album, its just not legendary or anything.

USS - Questamation


I don't really know how to explain these guys. their music isn't too deep, what you see is what you get, but most of their songs are still pretty good. some of them are pretty cute actually... theres one song on here that i can't stand. "stationary robbery" i think its supposed to be funny, but its not. but the rest of the cd is worth listening to.

Rob Thomas - Cradlesong

I loved Matchbox Twenty when they were still together, so obviously i started to listen to rob thomas when he started making music by himself. This album, like most, has some really good songs, and some that aren't too great. Most of the lyrics are worth listening to, however some of the lyrics drive me mental, they're so stupid. But all in all, its a good album, and worth listening to.

Although, i've got to say, i hate the album art, but i'll live.

Mika - Life in Cartoon Motion


i have no idea why i'm posting this. i guess because its fun. i don't take this album seriously, in any way. but i did like it for a while, so if you need something bubbly and fun to listen to, i guess i recommend it... maybe...

Nirvana - Nevermind


i know everyone knows about this cd, so theres no need to really explain it. i'm a HUGE fan of this album.

The Bravery - The Sun and the Moon


I instantly fell in love with this CD when i first heard it, it definetly has that indie vibe... the lyrics are insane though. i would listen to this cd just to hear the lyrics. honestly, you need to listen/read the lyrics. Hope you listen to it!

Tragically Hip - We Are The Same


I really didn't like the Tragically Hip before i got this cd. I didn't understand why everyone liked them, until i heard their new song "love is a first," but now i'm in love with all of their songs. I definetly recommend this cd.

Grizzly Bear - Veckatimest

Really weird CD. There are some really good songs on this album like "two weeks," "all we ask," and "while we wait for the others," but there are some songs that i'm not too excited about. I think its hilarious that one of the genres that they're put under is psychedelic folk. Everyone should listen to some of their songs, even if its just once.

Interpol - Antics

I just started listening to Interpol, and so far i've really enjoyed the album antics. The one song on it that i'm addicted to is "evil." the rest of the album is really good, but so far i've only listened to the album as a whole, not the individual songs, so they've all kinda bundled together for me. 

but yea, a good album.
