After listening to this album quite frequently over the past month, I can honestly say that I am still loving it. I even think this album is up there on my list with In Rainbows , and Oracular Spectacular ; all albums where I've found something new the more I've listened. Ahh.. Beautiful Fleet Foxes.

PopSense is exactly as it claims: a higher awareness of cultural truth. And the truth is good. Editor Jeff also has some ideas on what he thinks rocked the pop world this year. Have at it buddy! 1. Best Album of 2008 Fleet Foxes: It was the dose of baroque harmonic goodness that I unknowingly needed at my core. 2. Favorite Single of 2008 Sam Sparro - Black and Gold : try not to groo...

At some point, though, I got so backed up in listening to new albums that some simply fell through the cracks.

At last, we're done with this insane year. Yes, we saw history made on Election Day - and there's great promise that will attend the impending inauguration of the President-Elect. As for the rest of 2008, I can only quote Joey Ramone. Glad to see you go-go-go-go! Goodbye!I really should add a qualification. I will continue to enjoy a number of the better recordings, feature films, TV programs, and

Sometimes I dig in my heels, usually for no good reason. Last December my good friend Jaye went to a show I wanted to go to, except my sister was visiting. David Bazan was playing at The Crocodile Café in Seattle and another local band, Fleet Foxes, was opening for him. I skipped it to fight with my sister and it so happens that was the last night the Croc was open. The next day my favo..
