I honestly don't have a problem with fun. I enjoyed their first album quite a bit when it first came out, and they were probably the only band there last night that actually WORKED for their success.

I liked Aim & Ignite, too, but Some Nights was basically just "HEY REMEMBER QUEEN WE'RE DOING THAT NOW." Meh.

In other news, first new track from the Postal Service reissue has hit the internets:

Agreed! Dude can really sing and they make some catchy chunes. I had no idea one of them was with Lena Dunham, so that makes me like them even more. She was adorable last night when Fun kept winning.

So far I'm liking that new Postal Service track! I wonder who the female vocalist is that's featured. So so happy they're playing Squatch, especially since their tour isn't hitting any Canadian cities.

You know who digs fun. that you would never ever guess? The Friendly Destroyer. It takes all kinds.

Jenny Lewis from Rilo Kiley, just like many of the Give Up tracks.

Why has nobody posted this? Really cool.

Should have known! It's so nice to have new Postal Service material after like 10 years of waiting.

Technically it's not new, just old stuff that's finally seeing the light of day. But I agree.

Yes yes. New to me though! I bought Give Up on vinyl back in November and it has bonus tracks I'd never heard - it was like Christmas came early.

Purity Ring continues to be awesome.

wonk is the only other person here that I know enjoys Eluvium, but if you're a fan of ambient and piano music you should definitely check this guy out. Best sleepytime/reading/studying music ever. Here's a new track from him:

YES! I've been dying for something new from him since Similes. Copia is still my favorite, but I was actually one of the few people who really fucking loved Similes. Pumped that he's still making magic happen.
