An Indie Christmas

So here we are: December 24th, 2008.

It's Christmas time again, Charlie Brown. So, to celebrate, here's a little bit of Christmas-y music - just not the carols you'd expect to hear.

I hope you enjoy them, and have a safe and merry holiday!

***
1. Day One - Explosions In The Sky
2. Xmas Cake - Rilo Kiley
3. Are You Coming Over For Christmas? - Belle and Sebastian

Songs of the week: 12/9/08

Sorry for the hiatus on Songs of the Week; I was home over Thanksgiving with no internet, and since then I've been absolutely swamped with finals. But it's okay, I'm back. Somehow, I think the world went on just fine without me.

***songs of the week #

1. Pogo - Digitalism (So relaxing, so laidback, so...addicting)
2. Chapter I: Introverting Dimensions - The Fall Of Troy (Out of the three Ghostship tracks to appear on November's Phantom On The Horizon, this is the only one TFOT didn't fuck up)
3. August - Rilo Kiley (August seems years away during an Albany December)
4. N.Y. State Of Mind - Nas (Mo' old school hip hop for your pleasure)
5. Be Wild - M83 (Another older one, from the seminal Dead Cities, Red Seas, & Lost Ghosts)
