I can't stop listening to the new Tilly and the Wall album, Bottoms of Barrels. My last.fm profile agrees. Go get it; it's awesome. Other than that, I've been having a personal British Invasion:
Sol Seppy - The Bells of 1 2: Discovered via SYR. Sol Seppy is Sophie Michalitsianos. She plays most of the instruments, sings, and wrote/produced most of this album at her home studio. Reminds me of Devin Davis in that aspect, though the music isn't similar at all. Samples available.
The Pipettes - Various Singles: I think John Allison (of Scary Go Round fame) linked this band a while back. I've been collecting their 7" and CD singles ever since. They have an album coming out on July 17th. A modern take on the 60's Phil Spector girl group sound. Very British (their names are Gwenno (Gwenno!), Rose, and Becki). Very infectious.
Gang of Four - Entertainment!: I mentioned this a while back. I thought it was good when I first heard it, and it only seems to get better.
The Jesus and Mary Chain - 21 Singles: This has always been a band that I've had an interest in, but never looked into. This singles collection seemed like a good place to start (just like the Teenage Fanclub compilation) I didn't realize that they were as controversial as they were. Great noisy music.
Camera Obscura - Let's Get Out of This Country: This band is actually Scottish, not English. I didn't like this that much when I first heard it, but eventually I got over the weird production. I've got tickets to their show in SF on the 20th.
