Now that there is this bitterness in the air, may I recommend getting well wrapped up, and taking a walk listening to "Night Falls Over Kortedala". It will give you the warm, fuzzy feeling you require.

Girls

Hailing from San Fran, via a pretty sad childhood, Girls debut album Album has a lot of songs about girls. They are playing at The Bodega, Nottingham, on Friday 9th October, it's going to be amazing.

Small Black

From Long Island, making lo-fi hazy pop music, Small Black are probably not going to be massive, but they are pretty special. Despicable Dogs was a Pitchfork Best New Music choice, but also check out Weird Machines on their myspace.

Vampire Weekend

New album out in January 2010, which is very exciting. First song "Horchata" is doing the rounds now. They're also playing London this month if you're about.
