'Lo all...

I've a favor to ask.

I'm goin' on my honeymoon this week (thursday) to the grand ole caribbean!

I'll be taking a ton of NO and Electronic with me along with a few other favs: Aphex Twin, Charlatans, Stone Roses, Cabaret Voltaire etc.)

What are a couple of cd's that I (likely) haven't heard yet that are relatively new and that you think, simply put, kick butt...and would be good for listening to on a deserted beach etc.

thx in advance...

Spiritualized - Ladies and Gentlemen we are floating in space

Not quite suitable for the occasion perhaps, but it's a beautiful LP

I picked up the Coral's debut a little while ago, they're not everyone's cup of tea but they would be appropriate for the beach....(beaches have corals, eh?)
