Seriously, if I believed in reincarnation I would swear I was British in a past life. Every single time I hear something I like, I find out it's from the UK. And with the British (Second) Invasion still in full swing, there's always another great release coming from those crazy Isles. Here's one for the books (hailing from Austin, TX by way of Sheffield, UK):
Stoney
It's like the Shins time-traveled to meet the Beatles and picked up another 16 instruments along the way, except this is all done as a one-man band. Trance-y, catchy, sweet, and cynical by turns, it's no wonder that I put it on repeat. Not only that, but pick up his sophomore release and realize that this isn't a "sophomore slump" kind of album. This is the stuff that U2's or Coldplay's are made of. I heartily recommend "Morning After" and "One of You". Great tunes for a lazy Tuesday.
