The White Stripes - Icky Thump

Recommending this here because it's new, and I didn't know it existed until recently.  So far, I think I don't like it as much as their previous albums "Get Behind Me Satan" and "Elephant", but time will tell.

Muse - Black Holes and Revelations

(Via Chris on Pandora.)  I can't escape the thought that this guy sounds like Radiohead, but I'm really impressed by this album.  The tracks are really varied, which I think is a mark of good musicians.  Oh, and watch out for the first track.  It's a doozy.

Chris Clouse - Chimera - Upside Down, Ever so Wrong

The Lowest of the Low - Shakespeare my Butt

Tom Smith - And They Say I've Got Talent - Talk Like A Pirate Day

The best nerd inspired pirate themed song ever written.

Great Big Sea - The Hard And The Easy - Captain Kidd

I've moved on the Pirate genre.

James Newton Howard - Lady In The Water (soundtrack)

I realize my first three rec's were all soundtracks, but I've been writing a TON of papers for seminary, and I can't do lyrics when writing. I'll move on to a different genre now.

Klaus Badelt - Rescue Dawn (soundtrack)

Haven't seen the film yet, but I love the soundtrack. Amazon recommended it to me based on a couple of other CD purchases I had made. They were right.

Clint Mansell - The Fountain (Soundtrack)

Amazing movie. Amazing soundtrack. The Kronos Quartet is heavily featured in this soundtrack. They were also featured (slightly less so) in another Clint Mansell soundtrack, "Requiem for a Dream", also directed by Darron Aronofsky.

Lizzie West - Holy Road

I have a standing theory about the progression of how music sounds the more you listen to a given artist or album.  I've listened to Lizzie West a lot (comparatively), and the music still keeps getting better.
