I picked up two rare EPs by the excellent (and criminally ignored) Canadian group Perfume Tree. I got Fathom the Sky and the uber-rare Roots EP. The latter turns out to be an official CDR from the band, ca. 1999. I got quite lucky getting it for $10 in a Buy It Now auction. Bidding wars for rare Perfume Tree can get ugly. I've seen the Remote EP bring well over $100.

A combination of a lack of funds and not really being excited about anything new has left me not having made any musical purchases in a while :( Time to continue to explore the ignored parts of my existing CD collection.

So...you're already familiar with Birthday Massacre? Or are they not alternative enough for you?

I've heard of them but never actually heard them... I received some promotional material about them when ordering from Metropolis Records before, but never checked them out. Worth looking into?

Or are they not alternative enough for you?

Hey, what's that supposed to mean? :D Though I suppose it's better than Dan assuming I only listen to some stuff because of an attractive front woman. :D :D :D

Well, you do listen to stuff that's a little more left-of-field than the rest of us (and I say that purely with admiration).

I mean, they're right in line with Garbage and Curve, if you like that sort of thing.

I'm listening to their (many) samples on their MySpace page and I have to say I'm thoroughly enjoying them... Your Garbage/Curve comparison seems right on the mark. I'll definitely be looking into tracking down some of their stuff... Thanks for the recommendation!
