Well I succumbed to temptation and upgraded my eMusic subscription to the full 75 songs. It's only $20 bucks a month so I still consider it a good deal. Because one album is a large 24 song album, I still only got 5 albums this month. One of the groups is from Athens, Georgia (my new home) and another is from the Elephant 6 Recording Company which is (sorta) based in Athens as well. There are two more albums from the US's large northern neighbor and one from the US's parent country.

I'm very happy with how these are turning out so far. The Real Tuesday Weld's album is another really good album (I
loved their first) and The Apples In Stereo are always great.
