I have stated at least once before on this very blog, that Smashing Pumpkins’ sophomore album, Siamese Dream pretty much shaped how I felt about music; and it was one of a couple albums that signaled the beginning of when I truly started to appreciate and enjoy music at the level that I do now.

5SF: june 27
Published by June 27th, 2008 in all about me, five song friday, listen up!, music musings and music suggestion. 4 CommentsThis is going to be another “themed” five song Friday, because I haven’t really heard too many new things worth mentioning this week (and I have been listening to all of the good stuff from the recent months on repeat). I was trying to figure out what to post this week, when I thought that [...]
5SF: february 15
Published by February 15th, 2008 in five song friday, listen up!, mixed media, music musings and music suggestion. 3 CommentsI was actually scratching my head and wondering most of this week about what I was going to pick for my five songs this week, as I haven’t really been blown away by any of the stuff I have been checking out lately (new or otherwise). Maybe I am just in a lull? Who knows… [...]
death cab for cardigans
Published by January 23rd, 2008 in all about me, listen up!, mixed media, music musings, music suggestion and near and dear. 2 CommentsWait, what? This morning, on my way into work, I was flipping through the channels, as I find myself doing more and more these days, feeling completely underwhelmed by the music playing, and I stumbled upon something that I had somehow forgotten about: my insane love for Death Cab For Cutie. Seriously, I have blathered [...]

the 31 best of 2007 – 2: Feist – The Reminder
Published by December 30th, 2007 in listen up!, mixed media, music musings, music suggestion, near and dear and show the love. 4 CommentsAs I said yesterday, it was really hard to rank the number 2 and 3 spots, because both records are so wonderful, that I really love them both about the same; however, Feist’s The Reminderdoes have a sliver of an edge, which makes it number 2 on my list. Feist is one of those “obscure” [...]
the 31 best of 2007 – 3: Kate Nash – Made Of Bricks
Published by December 29th, 2007 in listen up!, mixed media, music musings, music suggestion, near and dear and show the love. 3 CommentsWow. I can’t believe how hard it was to rank these next two CDs. Seriously, this may be the hardest one to do out of the top of this list, because both the number 3 and the number 2 CDs are so close for different reasons, that I really didn’t know which one to put [...]
the 31 best of 2007 – 4: The Pipettes – We Are The Pipettes!
Published by December 28th, 2007 in listen up!, mixed media, music musings and music suggestion. 5 CommentsDespite criticism for choosing some albums that were “officially” released in 2006, yet did not actually see official US releases until 2007, I am going to risk further criticism and bring you another amazing CD that was released recently (finally) here in the states; The Pipettes’ debut album, We Are the Pipettes.With the American release [...]

Coming in at number 5, is the current album by Rilo Kiley, titled, Under the Blacklight.First, let me start by saying that I honestly didn’t care very much for this album the first time that I heard it.
