My favourite tracks are "Music: Response", "Out of Control", "The Sunshine Underground" and "Hey Boy Hey Girl". I think my next two album pick-ups of theirs will be Exit Planet Dust and Dig Your Own Hole. I've read some mixed reviews on Come with Us, and I don't understand what some of the dislike is all about, I really like the album. I can't really say much on Push the Button or We Are the Night since I haven’t heard them, but from what I've read (on here and music critic sites) We Are the Night is awful. We Are the Night is the first Chem Bros. I've disliked...

Thanks for the suggestions CouldBAnyone, I'll check out those bands when my roommate is not sleeping and being such a diva (meaning ALL silence when she sleeps. Even using my headphones are too loud for her believe it or not! UGH). Anyways... lol, sorry, just needed to vent a little. But I did add those artists to my "Electronic Bands To Check Up On" list  .

I just bought quite a few electronic albums, and my favorites of the ones I bought were Pantha du Prince's This Bliss and Gui Boratto's Chromophobia. Both of those albums I can listen to all the way through without being bored, especially Gui Boratto. Pole's Steingarten and Apparat's Walls have their moments too. I can't really get into Port-Royal, but I'm giving it a few more listens before I make up my mind. And Simian Mobile Disco is massively, massively overrated. I don't get what's so special about it at all.

Untrue by Burial is my latest obsession. It would be a lock for my favorite electronic album of the year if only my boner for From Here We Go Sublime wasn't so big.

3 words: kick. ass. beats. Simian Mobile Disco is solid from start to finish. It's one of the most accessible and fun albums of the year. I'm loving Burial 'untrue' and Ulrich Shnauss 'Goodbye'.

"Fall From a Height (The Field Remix)" About two minutes in, I involuntarily levitated out of my chair and started dancing on my furniture. Glorious.

You've been talking about this one for awhile now, I'd better check it out. Has anyone been listening to the new Trifonic album?

Wilt - Dead Meadows This is chilling dark ambient with a fair amount of distorted sounds and atmospheric drones...the title is quite apropos because it feels organic and alien at the same time.
Last Days - These Places Are Now Ruins A hybrid post-rock/ambient release (think if Jasper TX and Eluvium had a musical child). Solo piano pieces, melodic drones, guitar hypnotism, all are present here. Overall the album captures that tragic/epic sound with a great deal of heartfelt sentiment.

Hmm, cool. I'll make a note to check it out. What would you compare it to?
