The album is available in MP3 or Ogg and available either via direct download or via Bittorrent. My favorite tracks?

Cream and Bastards Rise
Moral Centralia
Little Round Mirrors
Happiness Writes White
Cool James
What You Live By
Diminishing Returns

But what’s that you say? That’s most of the songs off the album? Why yes, yes it is. The more I listened the more each grew on me, and the listed tracks are what made it to my current play list. While you’re downloading, checkout HD’s reasons for distributing their music on the internets in internet-distributing-musical-trailblazing style. The forum is also still lively!

BUT! I’m working on it. This weekend I’ve got some time off, but I’ve also got a lot on my plate to take care of. So at this point I may or may not have some of my projects blogged, but till then I have a list of the SotD from NPR. These are the ones I liked out of the most recently available tracks. Enjoy!!

Called “Song of the Day”, it has many different styles of music for you to sample. There’s one I like from February 8th from a band called Monkey Majik. Take a look, you may like what you find!
