This week I've been listening to Chastity Belt which is a great slacker rock band. Great vibes and they were killer live.

This week has also had a lot of Father John Misty and would have to say that I Love You, Honeybear is one of the best albums released this year. I might put it a step or two below Sufjan Stevens Carrie & Lowell.

A couple of nights ago I saw a band from Austin, TX called The Blind Pets who are great live. I hadn't listened to much of them before but walked away very impressed with how into it they were. Good week musically.

Slacker Rock, never heard that one before

It's a mostly made up term that I use to describe some bands. See also: Mac DeMarco, Speedy Ortiz.

One of my friends is a huge Father John Misty fan. I think if you told her that you enjoyed his music, she'd ask you out on a date in a heartbeat.

Edit: I'm also listening to Chastity Belt's bit on KEXP and I'm really enjoying it. So, thanks for that.
