Ya that’s right, here is what Santa brought SidVision this year. SidVision’s list was very long, but these are the 3 CD’s that Santa determined we need in our collection. These albums are well rounded, pure listening delicious-ness from begining to end.

Spoon - Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga

Another great album from Spoon. I am sure you have heard “underdog” a hundred times by now. We shared the video of my favorite song off this album in the Don’t you evah post. Check out these other songs off of the album. They both remind me of a cool mixture of the 80’s sounds of Squeeze and Tom Petty.

Spoon - My Little Japanese Cigarette Case
Spoon - Eddie’s Ragga

Arcade Fire - Neon Bible

My favorite Arcade Fire album to date. “No Cars Go” has been a bit overplayed but it still a great song. We reviewed the cover of “Keep The Car Running” by David Grohl in our Foo Fighters - Arcade Fire post. Check out these other songs off of that album. Both are dramatic and addicting.

Arcade Fire - Black-Mirror
Arcade Fire - The Well and the Lighthouse

Beastie Boys - The Mix-Up

I had heard that this album wasn’t as widely accepted by Beastie Boys fans, but I love it. An all instrumental album, it is quite funky and soothing. Check out “Electric Worm” for a good taste.

Beastie Boys - Electric Worm
