The Indie-kid in me just had an orgasm. A 2CD-collection with tracks of amazing artists at The Books, The National, Sufjan Stevens, José Gonzalez, The Decemberists, Arcade Fire, Buck65, David Byrne and wayyyy more. Amazing collection with some new material of i.e. Sufjan Stevens. The new Sufjan song (which is a cover) might be slightly dissappointing, but the overall collection is great!
