Time For Us To Take A Moment And Give You The Microphone


Because the comment gallery here is a collection of musical tastemakers without parallel, we like to ask you about the music we might be missing from time to time. Note: The last installment of this particular feature led to at least one expensive import purchase on my part, so while my ears thank you in advance, my wallet might not.

Your Opinions, We Care A Lot


Despite the fact that we occasionally want to slap some of you around, we're thankful for our comment section's refined tastes and willingness to actually pay for music once in a while. Take a moment to stop perusing our posts for grammatical errors and recommend something you're listening to lately. Since some bands can't afford to fill the tank to tour out our way these days, music from your local area would be a delightful bonus.

Help Me Wash The Morrison Out Of My Ears


The last time we ran this segment, it went relatively well. (Despite introducing me to the Flobots.) So let's give it another try. What's missing from the pages of this blog and the 17,000 others currently populating the Internet while we've been hung up on that Frightened Rabbit record? As long as no one mentions anything "presented" by the Broken Social Scene, we should be fine. Suggestions outside the realm of the indie especially welcome.

For Once, We're Going To Value Your Input (Don't Screw It Up)


Considering I've spent the last two days listening to nothing but the Uptown Saturday Night collection from Time-Life, it's safe to say even the most seasoned blogger hits low spots with new music. Ever the optimist, I'd like to believe there's music out there that's flying below the MGMT/Vampire Weekend level on the radar. Here's where you come in, our clever comment section. Have at it...tell us what's out there that we're missing. I might not give up the eighteen discs of Uptown Saturday Night, but a little variety would be nice. Just don't try to sell me on El Guincho, for pete's sake.
