Today's Quick Mention:  This is odd, but I sort of wish that Trent Reznor really had made a NIN's album with Timbaland, as it would have made for one bizarre listen.  On another note, we dominated at trivia last night and came away with our second first place win in a row.  Bam.

It's been roughly two years since White Rabbits delivered the so-very good Fort Nightly, so it goes without saying that I'm happy that they've readied a new LP.  Actually, let me clarify, I'm thrilled that they've readied a new LP, and it's all because Spoon's Britt Daniel helped them do it.  It's Frightening is set to be released on May 19, and I expect it to be spectacular.  Enjoy.

:White Rabbits - Percussion Gun:  I kind of figured that Britt Daniel would help the band focus their energy and become better overall songwriters, but I wasn't expecting something this inspired.  I mean, do you remember the sheer intense awesomeness of The Ghost Of You Whispers?  Well, this is like that, but raucous in a way that only White Rabbits' no punches pulled take on indie rock can be.  I need this record now.
