(Grooveshark has been giving me a rather hard time lately with exporting these playlists I make. So, I apologize for any technical difficulties.)
It's a pretty depressing album, but a good one at that. Play this for those long contemplative solo drives.
Beach House | Teen Dream

Had the pleasure of seeing Beach House live and fell immediately in love. This album doesn't even do her voice justice.
Modest Mouse | Everywhere and His Nasty Parlour Tricks EP
My friend Tyler played this in his car for me. I had never heard Modest Mouse like this. Thank goodness I do now.
Air | The Virgin Suicides Soundtrack

Favorite French band simply because of this soundtrack. Walking to this album in between classes slows down time just a bit.
Animal Collective | Strawberry Jam
"Peacebone" was the very first Animal Collective song my little ears had the pleasure of hearing. Sometimes you just need to go back to your roots.
