EL VY – Return to the Moon

Here's the new collaboration between Matt Berninger (of the National) and Brent Knopf (of Ramona Falls), doing the title track from their record on Conan. Also, their touring drummer has been Andy Stack of Wye Oak.

I can't play my favorite track off this album, since this is a family website, so instead, here's a stripped-down version of the closing track, "Careless".

I hope we're not all supposed to be putting our 2015 lists in these, cause...mine's not totally ready yet.

Menomena – Baton

Time for the comeback of my "Bands with more than one lead singer" gimmick. These guys released another solid album, Moms, last month, and will be playing at the Triple Rock in Minneapolis this Saturday night. I'll make a pledge to buy any WGOMer who comes down to check the show out a drink. For now, here's drummer Danny Seim on lead vocals, and head below the jump for another (and a special bonus video!):

Spoon – The Beast and Dragon, Adored

I was thinking about playing something really weird to end it here, with lots of cheesy synths, because if we've learned anything this week, I think it's that I have a healthy appetite for cheesy synths. But I decided to just give you some Spoon instead, for MPR's own 89.3 The Current. Thanks to the VJs for giving me the reins this week, and to everyone for indulging my tastes, past and present.
