Here, Hear III EP by La Dispute (2009):  Spoken word from the post-hardcore experimenters.Yes, spoken word might seem a little dubious, however it does feature 'Nine', one of the best tracks of their career. Bandcamp James Is Going To Die Soon by Crywank (2010):  Ridiculously simple yet emotive folk-punk from London. Pretty close to perfect debut. Bandcamp  (free download) Accordion Peas by Neutral Milk Hotel (1998):   Live bootleg of a '98 NMH show featuring the amazing, and rare, Oh Sister.
