Get your Cursive

I'm swamped in new music. I got at least three What I'm Listening to posts just waiting in the wings (The new M. Ward is fuzzy and good). Lots of bands are putting out their spring releases, getting ready to tour, and I appreciate them for that.

I also jumped on the nutty consumer bandwagon and got the Cursive album, albeit a few days late. So, $3 still is a good price to pay for a good album. And the money goes to the band, so that's all good as well.

The price goes up a dollar a day until it comes out next week on March 10.

Pick it up over Saddle Creek records.

50 Albums for $5 each

If you're looking to get your Black Friday music shopping on early, Amazon will feed your wanton consumerism with 50 albums for $5 each at it's digital download site.

Some of it is good (Lil Wayne's Tha Carter III is arguably the best rap album out this year) and some of it is not (you cannot pay me to listen to She and Him again).

But they've got Ra Ra Riot's The Rhumb Line, Colplay's latest, Q-Tip's Renaissance, and a host of others.

And it's all DRM-free.

SO belly up to some more turkey with rockin cheap music.
