The Rapture - House Of Jealous Lovers (2003)

Remember when this was the coolest fucking band ever? I saw them live with Interpol, Mogwai, and The Cure, and they put on a fucking rad show. They had a dude wearing tons of tie dye that did nothing but played a cow bell and danced around on stage. This is the single from the LP that made them really cool, and then a year later they kind of just disappeared and I haven't heard a thing about them since. Apparently they're still around and plan on releasing their 4th album this year.

Tracklist:
1. House Of Jealous Lovers
2. House Of Jealous Lovers (morgan geist version)
3. Silent Morning

Uncle Tupelo - Anodyne (1993)

Uncle Tupelo was Jeff Tweedy's band before Wilco, and Jay Farrar's band before Son Volt, and this is their final album. This was also one of my favorite albums a few years ago. I saw Jeff Tweedy play a solo performance at folk fest in 2005 and he played a bunch of songs off this album and it was pretty rad. Really great country rock. Ripped from the Rhino Vinyl 180 gram vinyl reissue.

Tracklist:
1. Slate
2. Acuff-Rose
3. The Long Cut
4. Give Back The Key To My Heart
5. Chickamauga
