Kaleb has put together another great mix CD, The 22nd Step
In God’s 80-Step Plan. First 10 people to e-mail him get
a free copy.

And speaking of free (as in, holy shit!!! Free!?!), Secretly Canadian has
graciously posted up the Impossible Shapes Tum LP (out on vinyl tomorrow),
as a free 192k mp3 download. They’re
on tour with Lekman right now, so check your
local listings. The Impossible Shapes *other* LP, Horus, is
out February 1st.

The Arcade Fire are on Morning Becomes Eclectic today at 11:15 Pacific. That’s what,
2:15 EST? Listen here.

Lou Barlow’s Emoh is out tomorrow. Did you know that it’s not “Emoh” as in “Emo”? It’s just “Home” spelled backwards. I mean, I think I read that somewhere. Anyway, here’s a track from the disc, and it’s called “Home”, so there you go.

You know what? There’s an amazing, AMAZING, Iron and Wine song
called “The Trapeze Swinger”. The fucked-up part? It’s only available on the In Good Company soundtrack.

Merge just sent out notice that M Ward would be appearing on a new Starbucks CD,
covering “Let My Love Open The Door”. A quick glance also shows that the disc features Calexico covering Joy Division, Joseph Arthur covering the Smiths,
The Old 97s covering the Kinks, and more.

On a Starbucks CD.

Starbucks.

Anyway, whatever. Tomorrow is National Druganaut Day.
