I picked up the new Caribou album, Andorra, about a week ago and it's all I've listened to ever since. I wish I were in the mood to use all of the glowing adjectives that other blogs use to describe the music you're about to hear, but in pure documentary form, I'll just give you the facts and let you decide on your own that you won't be able to live without this album either.

Caribou - Sandy

I've never really been sure if ELO was serious or not. I guess I'd still love them either way.

Electric Light Orchestra - Jungle

This is St. Vincent. She and I are kind of like hair-twins almost.
