i need to get you to jump on the stars train -- if you like metric, i think you'd dig

I've heard some Stars, actually... Reaaally long time ago on Launchcast. I can't even remember the name of the song, but it was pretty good. *goes off to look them up*

Right!! Elevator Love Letter was the one I heard, I'm pretty sure of it.

I already saw Rilo Kiley mentioned. They're basically the best band in the world.

Bright Eyes is cool too. As are Hellogoodbye, We Are Scientists, etc...

And then, speaking of the Be Good Tanyas...
Their even ten times better off-shoot: Po'Girl

Their second CD, Vagabond Lullabies, is so good it makes me want to throw my other thousand CD's in the trash and never listen to anything else ever again, well, maybe Beethoven. Have felt that way for the past year and a half already, to say something about its staying power.

I promise.
