One of my many honorable mentions from last year’s great record was “Visiter” by The Dodos. Looks like they’ve been busy in the studio and have added a musician to the band: 21-year-old Keaton Snyder on vibraphone. The third and newest album is called “Time To Die” and is, previously unbeknownst to me, available now.
Now for the really good news. Thanks to this thing called the internet and labels getting smarter about music distribution, you can listen to the entire album free. Sample the product before you buy; what a novel concept! Check out the tracks over here and buy the album over here.

Just wanted to say HI. I found your blog a few days ago on Technorati and have been reading it over the past few days.

I think I like this one even more than Visitor – I liked Visitor, but it never hit heavy rotation in my playlist. Time to Die just might.
And in addition to streaming for free on their site, the Amazon MP3 version you linked is only $2.99 right now! I doubt it will stay that cheap for long, so I’m grabbing it now.
