It's so refreshing when new music pops up and you realize that there are still songs being written that you can identify with and let yourself go and enjoy them... Avidly followed a lot of the music and podcasts out of SXSW and heard a lot of great stuff there. Also took advantage of a CD laying around from one of my dear SIL's friends, ripped it, and fell in love with the album. so...

Poison - Shiny Toy Guns
Money for That - Shiny Toy Guns
When did this storm begin - Shiny Toy Guns
Blown Away - Shiny Toy Guns
Frozen Oceans - Shiny Toy Guns
Fuck You - Lily Allen
Furr - Blitzen Trapper
