I just discovered a couple of lists I'd made on Amazon.com a good long while ago, "Love early post-punk (as much as Amazon will allow you to" and "Various pop-rock gems - power-pop, twee, etc.". I'm happy to say that now, about four years later, these lists hold up. My favorite of the descriptions is that of the Shins' first album - "An excellent summer record released in 2001 from some random band that's taking their sweet time releasing a new album. Hurry up, guys!" Ha!
