25 for 2006: Twenty Three
Album #23: Shut Up I Am Dreaming by Sunset Rubdown

Last year Wolf Parade were my number one album so I had high hopes for Spencer Krug’s side project, Sunset Rubdown. Perhaps my hopes were too high because while I liked this album I just feel that it pales in comparison to his work in Wolf Parade. What I do love about this record are the…shapes. I don’t know why but whenever I hear this album I hear shapes. And I don’t take drugs.

Song #23: AF607105 by Charlotte Gainsbourg
Because only a breathy French voice could make the word Saskatchewan sound sexy. Well done Charlotte.

Mmm, Charlotte is so good. I’ve got some live stuff and a review up as well. Keep up the good work.
