I'm interested in the Moving Castles RIYL.

Looks a lot better than last week. And if I remember correctly, Lizards Have Personalities are pretty darn good. Check them out.

The Essex and Turn Back Now sound pretty good too. And I have a feeling I'm going to be listening to Baby Baby a lot in the next few weeks.

The Essex, Lizards Have Personalities, BABY BABY, and Bolivian Search Party all look interesting. Especially The Essex, any band that includes mewithoutYou in their RIYL gets a chance with me.

I like it. The RIYL isn't as much of a stretch as I expected it, really does sound like a good blend of the best things from those bands. I think they could make a great full-length.

Moving Castles is fantastic!

good ol' suicide dance at it again...
