Seven Swans, by Sufjan Stevens (that's some heavy alliteration) -- great Michigan songwriter who's a lot like Elliot Smith, except not dead of self-inflicted stab-wounds.
Franz Ferdinand -- 'Take Me Out' is my favorite guitar-rock song to come out in years. I'll probably overdose in about a week or so, but for the time being, it's great.
Scissor Sisters -- Man, it's like the Beegees meet Supertramp meet Pink Floyd in modernized, sugary-sweet package. Everything a young guy like me wants to believe the 70s were about.
