The new Pernice Brothers' song "Somerville" (named after the Boston suburb where my mom grew up and her side of the family still resides). Really looking forward to hearing the new album, which is supposed to be out in September.

This reminds me of McCarthy gig I saw in a London pub back in 1989.
They were hailed by music weeklies as the next Smiths, which of course they would never turn to be.
Some of the songs were quite good, with the jangly guitars and good pop hooks, but I’d just arrived from a country ruled by communists and most of McCarthy’s overtly political, we’re-on-a-crusade lyrics made me laugh.

Shack, again. IMO this is a masterpiece, or at least as close as I've heard in 2006. Musically adventurous, great energy, chock full of memorable melodies, beautiful playing, lovely string and horn arrangements, lyrics that possess enough mystery and ambiguity to keep you coming back for more. I just love it. Why some American label is not jumping all over this I have no idea - maybe too English? I don't think so.

M.Ward - "To Go Home" - excellent new song from his up-coming album Post-War.
Unexpectedly a very energetic number with almost a wall of acoustic guitars and spacious drums + a little vocal help from Neko Case.
Can't wait to hear the new album.
