NEED NEW RECORDS

I recently experienced a personal tragedy... I spilled a beer on my MacBook and it has been wiped out... As a result, I lost all my mp3s.
Now of course I always prefer vinyl to digital, as I think we all do, but I have been known to fall into the habit of being too lazy to walk all the way over to my record player and usually would end up just turning to ye olde iTunes and putting whatever was whatever on shuffle or whatever.
Ever since my compy died I've been spending a lot of time alone with my record collection. It's been great, I've been discovering a lot of stuff I had that I had never really listened to, including some records my mom gave to me from her old collection. It's been great, but after two weeks without my full mp3 collection I started really jonesing for some new LPs to listen to. To remedy this, I went to Academy yesterday and picked up the following 4 LPs:

-Belle & Sebastian - If You're Feeling Sinister
This has always been one of my favorite albums of all time, but for some reason I'd never owned it on vinyl. I'm super excited to own this now. This re-press from Matador is this super heavy vinyl that just feels awesome to hold. I think this would be a really perfect record to throw on before making out with some cool dude who lovvvvves indie.
-The Ergs - Dork Rock Cork Rod
This record was recently re-issued by Don Giovanni Records and I thought I should get it. It's kind of a "seminal pop punk record," if such a thing exists and it's catchy and fun to listen to.
-Timmy's Organism - Rise of the Green Gorilla
This was the one newish record I got of the bunch. I actually hadn't gotten around to hearing Timmy's Organism yet, but I had heard only good things about them and am a huge fan of Human Eye (as is any sane person) and I kind of don't think Sacred Bones really puts out crappy records, so I figured it was worth a shot. This record did not disappoint... it's gritty and spooky and catchy in all the best ways. Very good listen.
-Yipes! - Yipes!
This record was my one total impulse buy. I was leafing through the used new arrivals and my eye was caught by a record that had "power pop!" scrawled on the upper left-hand corner of the plastic sleeve. I laughed at this, but the dudes on the cover looked super cute (everyone did in '79, am I right ladies?) and I decided to throw it on and give it a listen. Side one, track one was pretty good so I decided it was worth the purchase. When I got it home, I was not wrong... just way catchy power pop, the way all bands in 1979 should have sounded.

All in all, I'm happy with my purchases. Now pour me some whiskey and let me watch the snow while listening to some punnnnnnnnnnnk.
