Whats on your turntable tonight?

Thurston Moore - "Demolished Thoughts". Sonic Youth front mans new solo record on Matador, Produced by Beck. kind of a Sonic Youth version of Beck's Sea Change LP. Great music, great recording. Unfortunately my copy has a few nasty right channel clicks and pops in the first song. Bummer. On Matador.

Wild Beasts - "Smother". On the Domino label. Fantastic, original music and phenomenal recording with great bass. Reminds me of Talk Talk records. One of my favorites of the year so far and comes on 180g virgin vinyl.

Listening with friends yesterday...
