Deerhunter - "Never Stops" from MICROCASTLE.
Abner Jay - "The Reason Young People Use Drugs" from THE TRUE STORY OF ABNER JAY.
Kurt Vile - "Best Love" from CONSTANT HITMAKER.
{All of the above were discussed, purchased, listened to, or recommended yesterday. Two different trips to the record store, two different conversations about music with two different friends. I should probably stop spending so much money on vinyl... but THEN AGAIN...}

"Microcastle" was probably the best record of last year, regardless of how predictable a claim that may sound like. Also, I saw that Abner Jay record the other day but didn't pick it up yet. Looked interesting.
Yeah, it sure got a lot of hype, which is kind of why I didn't pay it too much attention, but it's actually really great, and worth all the fuss. We've been listening to it a lot recently, so it was finally time to pick up a vinyl copy....
That Abner Jay record came highly recommended by Adam (the king of good recommendations) and is really really great. Definitely pick up a copy if you can. Especially because as with most Mississippi records stuff it'll surely sell out pretty quick... Although if you ask Adam all about it he'll tell you all about panic purchases Vs reissue's....
Tried to make it to my friend's record store today to pick up the Abner Jay. No luck. Hopefully it will still be there when I get a chance to drop in. Glad to hear good things about it, although; now if I don't get a copy I will be extra bummed.
