Orphans 
By Tom Waits
A delightful collection of unreleased Tom Waits songs, spanning all corners of his musical spectrum. It's divided into three discs: 'Brawlers', 'Bawlers', and 'Bastards'. Some of his finest moments can be found in this compilation, from the beautifully mournful to the downright creepy.
High Violet 
By The National
Album of the year so far, for me. It will take some beating.
Oh for the getting and the not letting go 
By All Smiles
A project for Jim Fairchild of Grandaddy and Modest Mouse fame. This album is currently a free download at the website.
And it's great. Nice and dreamy.
Dr Strangelove or: How I learned to stop worrying and love the bomb 
By Stanley Kubrick
Such a funny, well made film. I can't think of anything quite like it. Peter Sellers plays 3 characters. Maybe my favourite Kubrick.
The Queen is Dead 
By The Smiths
A classic. Sad, funny, ironic, clever lyrics with Johnny Marr's iconic guitar jangle.
