[tahls--]

I still stand with 'Other Voices, Other Rooms' for the best 2008 release but the new album by 'The Academy Is...' (Fast Times At Barrington High) has been one to grow on me since the release. For me, it's the perfect soundtrack for summer, as well as being very symbolic of ones last year at school and the emotions everyone goes through.

 

[L-esky]

^I agree =]
Fast Times at Barrington High mightn't be anything revolutionary but it's the perfect summer soundtrack and for people like me coming to their last few weeks of school, it kinda embodies all the emotions and memories which I'm going through and thinking about at the moment.

 

[pinoying]

Mercy Arms - Mercy Arms

 

[Groucho Marxist]

i did like sigur rós' and bloc party's new ones
