These are the late sounds of 2k11, it has been a great year for music, from the nostalgic Beach Fossils, to the greatness of Girls, from riding on the chillwaves of Neon Indian and Washed Out to the underground psycho-billy echoes of Dirty Beaches, from the dream pop of Grand Resort to the always coming New Order's babies like Craft Spells, last but not least the psychedelic improvised summer of Real Estate's "Days" among a lot of new and awesome bands.
