Modest Mouse - Strangers To Ourselves. It's the first Modest Mouse album I've loved since The Moon and Antarctica (though I've liked them all along the way). My favorite tracks are Ansel and Wicked Campaign, though there aren't any I dislike.

I have to give honorable mentions to Sleater-Kinney and Brandi Carlile. Metric has a new album, too, and while they're still one of my favorite bands, and while I do like the new album, it doesn't hit me hard.

I've had conversations with friends that music interests stagnate beyond age 30. I'm an example of that.
