February 15th was a great day for music. Check out this previous post for my February 2011 Most Anticipated. Here is my thoughts after listening to the releases.

Bright Eyes ‘The Peoples Key’
Yes, a perfect album with lots of experimental sounds but it also showcases Bright Eyes unique lyrics. The guest commentary paints those pictures I was talking about in my previous post. I interpret Bright Eyes lyrics as well told stories that take me to a whole new place. I absolutely love this record.

Bright Eyes ‘Singularity’
There has been a lot of buzz about unreleased tracks that are now available for purchase and sure enough there they were on Zune. “Singularity” and “In The Real World” were released separately from ‘The People’s Key’. I gave these two songs a listen and immediately bought them. Get it.

The Tree Ring ‘Generous Shadows’
This band was a great find and the album is solid. It’s an easy listener that is refreshing and relaxing. It’s just a beautiful album and it’s good to hear new bands make timeless music.
A few bands on my radar that have new releases I still have yet to check out:
Drive-by Truckers
Twilight Singers
Yuck
Cut Copy
Any favorites or disappointments? Let me know.
