Le Tigre - "Le Tigre"

who took the bomp? asks both le tigre and daisy. enjoy the dancing around and the wagging of tails. recommend this album to your doggy pals. (or your tiger pals). daisy enjoys attempting to do the "deceptacon" dance (which she usually tires out half way through). but she loves it nonetheless.

Lemuria - "Get Better"

daisy is currently listening to this right now. she's barking at me so i get this typed and shared. : ( it's scary. she obviously loves it. the volume goes up, and so does her hostility so i get this up asap. simply put: download this album. enjoy it.
(and if you're in the atlanta area, go to the show december 30th. i'd love to go. but i'm in europe. daisy will probably be right in the front row, as usual)
she especially likes the dog and dogs tracks.

Jónsi - "Boy Lilikoi"

from daisy's favourite band, sigur rós, jónsi (the singer) is doing a solo project. this is one track from his upcoming album Go. it's set to be released march 22nd. daisy imagines spring when listening to this song. after 143 plays (and still going), she finds this song to be a super enjoyable uplifting track. it's freaking jónsi. for sigur rós fans: this song is in english. which is very different to what jónsi usually sings in. but it still has the mystic, ethereal feel to it.

daisy's tail can not stop wagging while listening. an audible cocaine, perhaps.

Crystal Castles - "Crimewave"

Lykke Li - "Youth Novel"

what daisy originally heard from one of the tracks of royksopp's Junior album was the lovely swedish musician, lykke li. fitting while painting, daisy greatly enjoys lyyke li and her cute voice: (it's a swedish girl thang).
daisy has heard that lykke li is featured on the new twilight movie soundtrack? at least those fan girls are getting some good music out of the move, certainly.
daisy gives the cutest musician award ever to: lykke li.

imagine your life is a non-stop party. imagine waking up with a bang. every morning. imagine daft punk playing at your house. this is the soundtrack to your party life. as daisy does indeed party all the time, she finds this album in her car much more often than other albums of similar genres. she and her girls love james murphy. the man.

The Knife - "Silent Shout"

one of daisy's favourite electronic swedish musicians. some call this album the best of 2006. daisy calls this album the best album to dance to on cold winter nights in those forest raves she often times goes to. once, when recommending this album to a friend, she described it as a mix of eerie dreams and a sweet listen. this friend, after listening to the album extensively, went on to become the dog whisperer.

Prefuse 73 - "Everything She Touched Turned Ampexian"

requested album! prefuse 73! scott herren! this is the most recent album of his. daisy's not listened to much prefuse 73, but she has listened to previous albums' tracks like "perverted undertone" and "storm returns" (both from one word extinguisher). the general consensus of the last.fm page of this album seems to be pretty positive.

daisy would like to mention that this album has many short shorts (29 songs, the longest being over 4 minutes).

Modest Mouse - "The Moon and Antarctica"

one of the best modest mouse albums, daisy feels. this one contains the bonus tracks, as well. super enjoyable. some of the best modest mouse lyrics, daisy tells me to write. while writing in her journals, filling them with poetry, she finds this album to be the one that evokes a greater creative passion for writing, especially concerning melancholic topics. this album also makes for a great one to listen to in the winter.

Tom Waits - "Real Gone"

What a fan daisy is of Tom Waits. His rough singing brings her satisfaction, coupled with the lyrics of the album, some of them politically based. she holds a partial connection to "day after tomorrow", as her father served in 'Nam, only to come back missing a leg, haunted by his experiences.

And the summer
It too will fade
And with it comes the winter's frost, dear

an interesting fact: this is the first Waits album without a piano featured.

track listing:
- "top of the hill"
- "hoist that rag"
- "sins of my father"
- "shake it"
- "don't go into that barn"
- "how's it gonna end"
- "metropolitan glide"

Natalie Portman's Shaved Head - "Glistening Pleasure"

from wiki:

Smith and Libman's [members of the band] first written songs for Natalie Portman's Shaved Head were about "fruit snacks and partying". The band claimed one of the reasons they formed the band was to get girlfriends

when daisy hits the clubs, without the intent of picking up the dude-dogs, she likes to party while listening to NPSH. when with her girlfriends, she drives to menchies and hangs near the car while eating her frozen yoghurt, "bedroom clothes" blaring out of her friend's mom's SUV.

when alone, though, daisy appreciates the wit and surrealism of the lyrics. she loves to recommend this album to her favourite online communities.

track listing:
- "me + yr daughter"
- "slow motion tag team"
- "iceage babeland"
- "mouth full of bones"
- "holding hands in the shower"
- "l.a. noir"

- "bedroom costume"
- "hush hush"
- "beard lust"
- "sophisticated side ponytail"
- "the malibu highlife"
- "confections"

Yndi Halda - "Enjoy Eternal Bliss"

5 out of 5 paws for this album. daisy loves this album coupled with her reflective evenings. the tracks, ranging from 11 minutes to 22 minutes, never bore. to be trite, daisy feels that this album has very epic qualities (existing, in itself, is very epic). the sweeping sounds made by the five piece collective take you through a winding, wild hallways of musical adventures to one room. this one room is the climax of each song, and in it is the burst of emotion and senses used to create each piece.

imagine your life transcribed to music: this is it.

track listing-
- "dash & blast"
- "we flood empty lakes"
- "illuminate my heart, my darling!"
- "a song for starlit beaches"

Totally Michael - "Totally Michael"

from last.fm:

Sometimes, boredom takes us great places. At 20 a musician named Michael, who had amassed some fairly significant musical experience playing in a “crappy punk band” in high school, was living at home with his mom in Cabot, Arkansas, just a little perplexed about what to do with his life. Driven by boredom, armed with a guitar and a swift talent for using home recording software, Michael transformed himself into Totally Michael, a buoyant musician with a penchant for pop hooks and an adoration for blink-182.

my dog, daisy, thoroughly enjoys this album. she can often be found driving at high speeds around assisted living centers blasting this album with her top of the line soundsystem, much to the adoration of old, christian grandmothers and girl scouts.

track listing :
- "casual satisfaction"
- "summertime"
- "winona"
- "in her diary"
- "cheerleaders vs. drillteam"
- "orchestral interlude"
- "prom night"
- "death hill (over and over)"
- "casual satisfaction"
- "slow jam"
- "get with it sierra"
