mini spree

was walking past hmv at citylinkmall after the flipfantastic KoC concert when i decided to pop in for a look see. would have gotten the second and third goldfrapp albums if they were 1] below $21 and 2] available. they were. failed to fulfil one of the other.

so was browsing through the new releases and charted albums. tried out artic monkeys which are oh-so-hot right now. hey, i saved some money because i listened to them on the listening post and decided that i don't need their record smashing debut album.

grabbed feist's let it die because i saw it and it's quite a rare find. maybe still hoping she was somehow invited to mosaic music festival in her own right as a solo artist and guested KoC show. but none of that sort happened. beth orton's new gem is out. got the pack with the bonus cd. listening to the album, comfort of strangers, now. the title reminds me of my earliest blog entry. also bought belle and sebastian's latest, the life pursuit. somehow, BandS will never be repeating the style they had with their earlier albums like if you are feeling sinister, tigermilk....

listening to comfort of strangers now. bliss.
