New Music

	Depeche Mode : Sounds of the Universe The first song I heard was fragile Tension and I thought, Meh, this is ok, but kind of boring.  Then I heard Wrong and I though, Ya! this is more like it!  DM is my most favourite band of all time, but at first I found this album mellow, and the lyrics not young and fun enough, and the spiritualism seemed preachy to me, although I know that is not the intention.  This new album is definitely not one of my DM faves, but it’s starting to grow on me. - Miles Away/The Truth Is - Wrong - In Sympathy - Perfect - Fragile Tension - In Chains
	Silversun Pickups : Swoon I wish I could go back to the days when I was the only one I knew who had ever heard of Silversun Pickups.  I’m selfish and I don’t like to share!  Plus, sometimes bands can go down the drain as their popularity increases.  This is so not the case here.  Swoon makes me swoon!  I can’t decide which track is my least favourite!  My top faves, - Panic Switch - Catch and Release - Sort Of - There’s No Secrets This Year - Draining - Growing Old Is Getting Old
	Metric: Fantasies I’m totally burnt out on all the radio play Help I’m alive has received, so much so that it’s pretty much turned me off from the song, but I do like the acoustic version, and some others. - Sick Muse - Gimme Sympathy - Help I’m Alive (acoustic) - Satellite Mind - Call Collect
	Röyksopp: Junior This is a fun and catchy album.  There are ultra synthy pop songs and then you have the melodic tunes like the instrumental Röyksopp Forever.  I love it. - Girl and the Robot - It’s What I Want - Happy Up Here - Röyksopp Forever - This Must Be It - Vision One
