New music?
I've signed up for a music swap. I'm supposed to make a mix CD that only contains songs released in 2007, and I need to have it in the mail by Dec. 1. The only hitch: I haven't bought a single album this year, my radio dial is permanently tuned to news. Any song suggestions from the peanut gallery?

I'm told that "Britney's back, bitch."

I use that song to kick of my mix. That would be awesome.

I vote for something from Dan Wilson's new album.

Try something from LCD Soundsystem's new album Sound of Silver.

Thanks, everyone. That should help.

Look at the cds I gave you.
There's 2007 music on there-and because I'm so anal it's in the file names album-year

I haven't actually started compiling the mix CD yet, but I had a feeling your music would be a good place to turn, Rian.

I sorta like Bright Eyes, _Cassadega_. I like Brandi Carlile, _The Story_.
People with better taste than I really like Okkervil River, _The Stage Names_.
