Staff Recommendations: May 20th, 2012
 

I don't want to point fingers as to who hasn't done a great job recommending things lately. It could be any one of us. And you know what they say about pointing fingers: point a finger at a scary person you don't know and they will either expose themselves to you or just rip that stupid-finger-get-it-out-of-my-face-now. Either way, let's not do it. Let's just talk like family (which is to say shout and cry a lot).

Blake

Misser isn't better than Transit, but it is way better than This Time Next Year. Also, I have nothing but love for the Park leftovers that make up the Tiger Tank self-titled EP. Bye.

Kyle Huntington

A whole lot of Joy Division, even more than usual due to the recent anniversary of Ian Curtis' death. As well as a lot of John Mayer. I finally finished my run through over Parks & Recreation from start to finish and am sad I now have to wait for new episodes.

Christian Wagner

Bamboozle. Find me and my bald head. Tweet at me, @gbchristian, if you want to meet up.

Alex DiVincenzo

I've been revisiting Alkaline Trio's back catalogue. I forgot how many of their songs I love.

Jason Gardner

Suis La Lune's new record Riala is quite good. I'll also be at Bledfest this coming Saturday, so I've been listening to some The Early November since they are the band I am most excited to see.

Yes .

I really wish Misser was on Rdio. Like, really badly.

This Misser album is gold.

I feel like Misser IS better than Transit too.
