Terminal Patience
by The Voluptuals
This is a pretty great record. I don't know, just listen to it if you're looking to listen to something new. "Everybody Loves You When You're Dead" is pretty killer. This band really digs The Sweet.

Bridgette Imperial is a brilliant singer-songwriter/composer with a remarkable gift for shoe-gaze, in only the best sense. Misgivings is a beautiful, meditative & heartbreakingly melancholy album.
