State Of The Pretzel Logic: October

Happy Halloween everyone! October is almost over and November is just around the corner. This has been a very exciting month music-wise, with four new albums getting added to my 2009 Favorites. Also, I finally finished my albums-by-decade countdown, which has been my baby for the last seven months. Pretzel Logic has been a wonderful writing outlet for me and, hopefully, there are people out there who’ve enjoyed reading all these lists, reviews and assorted other thoughts.

Currently, there are no reviews I feel the need to update.

As we enter the last two months of the year, album releases tend to slow down and drop off. Music critics everywhere are ramping up for the inevitable Best Of The Year countdowns and any CDs released in December are pretty much assured not to get any real press. Anyway, there are plenty of albums that have slipped through the cracks over the course of the year and I’m going to spend November and part of December catching up on things that I’ve missed. Currently on the review schedule: Atlas Sound, Beak>, The Cribs, Danger Mouse & Sparklehorse, Devendra Banhart, Echo & The Bunnymen, Girls, Gossip, Morrissey, Neon Indian, Them Crooked Vultures and Volcano Choir. If you’ve got any other suggestions for great albums that I never reviewed this year, comment away!
