I only listened to them recently(like beginning of this month recently), but I'm in some sort of bizarre indie-music phase, so bands like Vampire Weekend, Foster The People, and Metric are pretty awesome to me right now.
My favorites so far are Run, Diplomat's Son, and Giving up the Gun.
I'm with you on this one.Bring the Metal-Christmas tunes! Hellz yeah!
I don't know how people can stay paired so long.
