With a little help from my friends

[theatokos]

I'm in the mood for new music. As I'm putting all my music back on to my laptop (hello tedious!) I realize I haven't listened to music for ages. 2008 was characterized by being pregnant - I didn't read much or listen to music.

So help me out! Please give me two recommendations: 1) A favorite new artist/song/album from the last 6 months and 2) a favorite in general. Any genre, serious or silly. My only off limits for this is screaming. I don't like screaming, no matter how good the rest of the music is.


Thanks!
