Me too Vin...I know Rilo Kiley better, but this new one is Jenny solo with these two female backup/harmony singers and a backing band in some cases...pretty decent.

Gotta put a plug in for my favorite NYC-centric band, The Walkmen.
I'm guessing if you like Editors (great band) you might enjoy them as well. Great live sound, great songs, they do convincing slow and fast numbers. Lots of use of piano, classic reverberated direct-to-amp guitar fuzz, etc. that doesn't get in the way of great songwriting. I always likened them to a garage-rock take on U2 without all the world-saving pomposity.
Of the 3 they have out, I'd recommend "Bows and Arrows" as the best to start with. They're putting out an entire covers album of Harry Nilsson's "Pussycats" later this year, which is hilarious and just the kind of offbeat thing the band always does every few years.
Vin, do yourself a favor and try something different. Go and get Thievery Corporation's Mirror Conspiracy and Zero 7's Simple Things. Melodic, versatile trip-hop with some incredible female vocals. It's not much of a departure from what you've been recommending to me.
Thanks, BTW for pointing out Rabbit Fur Coat to me, I went on a road trip recently and cemented my love for that album.
I have never done steroids. Period. Well, not today, anyway.

I love both those albums.
