There are a truly massive number of excellent albums being released today, these are just a few of the more popular ones amongst bloggers.
Buy Ryan Ferguson's Only Trying to Help
(If I don't get a post up on this one in the next few days, please harass me. I'm accepting applications for a personal harasser now; e-mail me and in exchange I'll send you free stuff I get. Just kidding.)
Buy Rilo Kiley's Under the Blacklight
Buy Architecture in Helsinki's Places Like This
(previous post)
Buy Caribou's Andorra
(previous post, with mp3s)
Buy Josh Ritter's The Historical Conquests of Josh Ritter
(previous posts - hopefully I'll also get a review up sometime soon)
Buy the New Pornographers' Challengers
("Myriad Harbour" - hopefully I'll be more success in my 2nd attempt at reviewing this album)
Can you guess which one is my favorite? Which one is yours?
New Pornographers - My Rights Versus Yours
Josh Ritter - To the Dogs Or Whatever
Video: Rilo Kiley - The Moneymaker
I'm featured on this week's Contrast Podcast, which has songs about Shapes. Meanwhile, I have a big joyous surprise for you all that should be up either later today or tomorrow.

Tommorow is July 10, so here's the scenario: you only have, say, $18 and you walk into a record store....How will YOU decide?
St. Vincent - Marry Me
Spoon - You Got Yr. Cherry Bomb
Interpol - Heinrich Maneuver
Buy Our Love to Admire or Marry Me or Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga.
You can guess which one I would buy...
Don't worry, you won't have another dilemma like this again until August 21, when you'll have to choose between Rilo Kiley, the New Pornographers, Minus the Bear, M.I.A., and Architecture in Helsinki. That'll be tough.
