I have purchased what seems like a considerable amount of music over the summer.  I feel like this list says something about me (other than “this sucker still pays for music,”) but I’m not exactly sure what:

• Matisyahu, Akeda
• Murs and ¡Mayday!, Mursday
• Mika, The Boy Who Knew Too Much and Life in Cartoon Motion
• YG, My Krazy Life
• 3rd Bass, Derelicts of Dialect
• Macy Gray, Covered
• Phish, Fuego
• Nappy Roots, The Pursuit of Nappyness
• Tom Waits, Mule Variations
• Weird Al Yankovic, Mandatory Fun
• Lou Reed, Transformer
• Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers, Hypnotic Eye

Toss in half-a-dozen or so individual tracks, too.

In case you’re wondering, there’s a Guardians of the Galaxy review coming, but probably not today.  I need to let this one roll around in my head a bit; the review’s gonna be more mixed than I wanted it to be but the parts I liked I liked a lot.
