what's in my bag that auditeers might enjoy:
 
Goldrush, "Ozona" -- Psychpop gem from Oxford quintet playing in L.A. on Saturday night (Spaceland)
The 88, "Over and Over" -- Pretty irresistible.
Stars of Track and Field EP -- Not Belle & Sebastian-like, more like Snow Patrol/Radiohead.
Death Cab for Cutie, "Plans"
The Long Winters, "Ultimatum" EP
Matt Pond PA, "Several Arrows Later" -- Chamberpopper kinda sprouts wings.
Ryan Ferguson, "Three, Four" EP -- Ignore the fact he played in No Knife; this is unabashedly powerpop.
The Prme Ministers, "Go For Glory" -- Outta the Motor City.
 
 
utter disppointments, fwiw:
 
Big Star
OK Go
Magic Numbers
Broken Social Scene
