06.26.09video: major lazerMajor Lazer's album Guns Don't Kill People Lazers Do has been the surprise of the year for me.

06.25.09st. vincent on lettermanI'm going to be honest here, I have a huge crush on Annie Clark right now. She's adorably cute and it doesn't hurt that she records incredible music under the St. Vincent name either. Annie showed up with an accompanying cast of musicians on saxes, oboes, and a plethora of other instruments to play The Letterman Show last night and provided the best performance I've seen on the show this year.
