Cuban Linx #27: Songs of the year, Live Bishop Allen, New Caribou, Lewis & Clarke

Rock Insider posts her top 10 songs of the year so far.

Lullabyes has yet another great bootleg, this time of a recent Bishop Allen in-store.

Gorilla vs. Bear has the best song on the new Caribou album, as will I as soon as I can spare a minute to write about it. I don’t always like the direction Dan Snaith’s taken since dropping the Manitoba moniker, but “Melody Day” is a track I – and you! – can get behind unequivocally.

Speaking of songs I can get behind – Stereogum interviews my boy Lou Rogai of Lewis & Clarke for their fantastic-as-usual Quit Your Day Job series.
