Frank Ocean 'Nostalgia, Ultra'
Only got into this recently, but what I lacked in timeliness is more than compensated by passion. Truly great mixtape. Now it's time to find out which other great tracks he has made, easier said than done though, given the quantity of tracks.

Game of Thrones (Season 2)
Just caught the first episode, looking good. Joffrey is probably the most annoying unlikeable character I've yet seen in a tv-show, in a good way. Reviews have promised a really great season, so guess we'll just have to sit back and enjoy the ride, even if a week does seem like ages once you've seen an episode.

The Temper Trap 'The Temper Trap'
Sounds very "Temper trap"ish, which is of course a great thing in my mind. Very much looking forward to this release, and guess I may even buy the first album, which I never got around to do back then.

The Shins 'Port of Morrow'
Full album available on iTunes, anybody listened to it yet?

Modern Family
"Everybody follow the birthday flag" "What did you call me?" :D loved it. The last few episodes have been really good.

Can't say I've heard anything else from the man (or band?). Is he horrible normally?

Unknown Pleasures VIII : Songs & Vote
How Shell Suit is at only 12k youtube views is mystifying, really one of the better songs in this rendition of the competition.

Unknown Pleasures VIII : Songs & Vote
Annoys me there's such a long time until the next incarnation of UP, already got a song I'm really buzzing to introduce the forum to, not sure I'm gonna be able to refrain from making a thread for several months.

The Shins 'Port of Morrow'
I still like Simple Song, just annoys me a lot that the lyrics are very...well simple.

Just got to watch the last episode, truly amazing. Best one in the series yet by a mile. Was laughing just about all the way through.

Indie/Alt Song of the Year - 2011 - RESULTS
Surprised to see Vomit so low, thought it'd do great, perhaps few people know it, or it's just not indie enough (or people think it's crap). Also thought Beth/Rest was a truly excellent finisher on the Bon Iver album, shocked by the 72nd place. Other than that I can't really say anything to the winner, even if it didn't top my list, it really is excellent, catchy yet different, and everybody likes it, it's just a question of how much.

Oscars 2012
Feel Drive was overlooked a bit, probably the cinema movie I've enjoyed most in recent years, should at least be nominated for best instructor and imo best film too, was obviously never gonna win the latter, but still easily worth the nomination.

Indie/Alt Song of the Year - 2011 - RESULTS
I think we may see a few Bon Iver tracks in the top10, though nothing of Arcade Fire'ish proportions. Other thanthat I think Somebody That I Used to Know will end in at least top10, despite not being mentioned a single time in this subforum prior to the voting.

Modern Family
Last episode was quite nice, loved the part with Cam singing what was probably the poorest song choice ever, and saw the piedestal gag coming as soon as she stepped up on that table.
