Hatebreed

Blackbeard's I Wah Dub, which I got from Amazon for $3.60. The price is still that low if anyone else wants to snatch it up; it's not as good as Strictly Dub Wise but it's still pretty wonderful. And: so cheap! I don't know why!

Hector Lavoe - Hector Lavoe Strikes Back
Andy Harlow - La Musica Brava

cw-- Brigitte Fontaine est... is originally from 1970, i think, and seems to've been her first long-player; sounds pretty mellow and, well, just pretty too, compared to the later stuff of hers i've heard (and also liked! :). much of it's short & nicely orchestrated pop songs - with little cool twists here and there.
the all music guide review of Brigitte Fontaine est...is quite accurate, you might want to check thattoo.

Daniel Higgs - Metempsychotic Melodies (more like Meh-tempsychotic Meh-lodies)

It's ok - it has some cool carnatic-sounding banjo playing and drone stuff, but his voice always annoys me a little on record. I enjoyed him more live.

Xiu Xiu - The Air Force

A CDR I sent my friend about eight years ago with the stuff I was listening to in high school. A lot of great tracks I haven't heard in ages, especially Leonard Cohen's "First We Take Manhattan."
