Quick Hits, v.2
• The wonderful Austin band Voxtrot (whom I fondly call Spoon Lite) has released a new single titled “Your Biggest Fan”. It’s pretty similar in sound to their first two EPs, though not quite as catchy. Still, it’s an oustanding little gem that everyone should own.

Quick Hits, v.1
• Madden ‘07 is too easy. Ridiculously easy. The graphics keep getting prettier and the features more intense, but the gameplay is still stuck in the same unrealistic tecmo bowl style malaise.
