    Caspian and Frodo present to you the best music of 2007 so far with a very special music podcast! They cover the biggest indie albums so far this year - Modest Mouse's We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank, Arcade Fire's Neon Bible, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah's Some Loud Thunder
    and The Shins' Wincing the Night Away. They also discuss the Deerhoof Milkman Ballet, The Knife, John Vanderslice and a super excellent compilation of 8-Bit covers of Kraftwerk music called 8 Bit Operators. Also stay tuned for their 2007 music preview, as they talk about Bjork's new album, a possible new Portishead album, the Sasquatch festival and a brand new Elliott Smith double-disk.

    Also mentioned is how Rolling Stone is stupid and you should listen to us for music reviews. If you like our video game podcast, you'll love the music podcast. Download it now or subscribe to the podcast on iTunes!

    In that picture we look like we should start an electronica band and open for Junior Boys or something.

    I really like these music episodes. I found at least one new band that I really like each time. Keep these coming!
