We’ve reached the middle of the week, and while I’d typically spend this intro writing about some music news item or offering some sort of pop culture commentary, during this particular week I’m a bit pressed for time. There’s a lot going on, the most important of those things being preparing for this year’s Pitchfork Music Festival and the week-long coverage I’m working on for that. Sadly, something must suffer as a result, and these intros are that. So, if you click this link, you can view all the Pitchfork Music Fest coverage I’ve written so far, and will continue to write for the next few days. Beyond that, please enjoy the tracks that are part of today’s Pick Your Poison. Recommendations include cuts from Alligator Indian, Breakbot & Irfane, Ducky, Glimmermen, Stout Cortez and Walking Shapes. In the Soundcloud section after the jump, stream new stuff from The Dismemberment Plan, Keep Shelly in Athens, No Age, and the Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs remix of Disclosure’s “F For You”.
