Out of Touch Sunday Collection

If you're like me and have dropped out of time and space, around the world, for a week or two and crave (in that willing to cut your arm off way), good, sturdy, well-written new music: here is some good stuff. Has there been a better year for music than this year? The top ten list is already starting to going to have about twenty runner ups -

What I mean is, press play on this short list and or click their pages and let me know what you like - because, Jesus, I sure want to talk about all this great stuff...

The Antlers and their smart pop; the Fruit Bats sizzling acoustics; Creaturesque's trailblazing with deep, candied guitar and Neutral Milkiness; The Bottle Rockets southern and drunk; Jonsi and Alex's Riceboy Sleeps & James Blackshaw's gothic choir of guitars...so much good stuff I'm going to go nuclear.

The Antlers - Two

Fruit Bats - Primitive Man

Creaturesque - Baby You're Bored

The Bottle Rockets - The Long Way
