The Onset Of A New Segment

I've decided to inject some new life into my blog and introduce a brand spankin' new segment on this cold, cold evening (stream-of-consciousness side note: 10 cms of snow on the way? C'mon!).

Anyways, it's called the "Super-Fun All-Star Sunshine Music Review" (patent-pending, as are most innovative ideas on this blog). The concept involves me reviewing a record in one sentence or less.

Tonight's inaugural entry:
Artist: M83
Album: Saturdays = Youth
Release Date: Sometime earlier this month

One Sentence: "This kaleidoscopic array of dizzying synths, piano dirges, whirlwind guitars, and chilling, co-ed vocals is an early best-of-2008 candidate."

Oh and before my girlfriend reads this and exclaims (WTF!?), this is a version of an email game we play involving band names. I invented that one too.
