music in august

During the course of this month, I have added seven new albums to my music collection. Here is the quick list:

Damage - Kosheen
One Cell in the Sea - A Fine Frenzy
The Understanding - Royksopp
Eyes Open - Snow Patrol
Continuum - John Mayer
Arular - M.I.A. Everything All the Time - Band of Horses

Of that group, One Cell in the Sea is by far my favorite and has been in heavy rotation for me. I love the sound of Alison's voice and see her style as falling somewhere in between Tori Amos and Imogen Heap. In terms of overall sound she is more electronic than Tori, but not to the excess of Imogen. I imagine that that description probably means nothing to anyone but me, but that is how I see her.

Kosheen is second on the list with John Mayer standing at a solid third place. As for the remaining four, I can appreciate them on some levels, but none of them are that important to me and will probably be removed from iTunes in the coming months when I decide that I need hard drive space.
