Pale Green Ghosts
Just fucking wow. Take a listen GMF and you'll know immediately if you'd like this one. We love it and are listening to this song about 5 or 6 times a day it's that good. Spirtual, uplifting, mysterious, dark, foreboding, elegant with some great lyrics to boot ("Half of the time I think I'm in some movie, I play the underdog of course; I wonder who they'll get to play me, maybe they could dig up Richard Burton's corpse"). All the odd number songs (and song 10) on this disc are musts. (May '13)
 The Landing
We Are
We like well done electro pop. This is well done electro pop. (May '14)
