Listening to U.S. Royalty's 'Mirrors' and theses songs remind me of:
- Happy Hollows = 'Five To One' by The Doors
- Monte Carlo = 'Dreams' by Fleetwood Mac
- Vacation Vacation = 'One Fast Move, Or I'm Gone' by Ben Gibbard and Jay Farrar and 'I'm On Fire' by Bruce Springsteen
- Fool To Love = many Creedence Clearwater Revival songs
- Desert Won't Save You = 'Baby, Please Don't Go' by Them (Van Morrison)
* The albums itself is very good. Very catchy. And for the record, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. It's a great album to start the year with.*

Albums:
Say Hi 'Oohs & Ahhs'
- heard about this guy from the most recent 'Shameless' episode; the song ('Novemeber Was White, December Was Grey') fit so perfectly with the ending scene/credits. Worth checking out.
Maps & Atlases 'Perch Patchwork'
U.S. Royalty 'Mirrors' (for a limited time)
- you can also listen to the new albums by: Iron & Wine and The Get Up Kids (also for a limited time)
Lemuria 'Get Better'
The Movielife 'B-Sides' & 'The Red and White Demos'
Hot Rod Circuit 'Sorry About Tomorrow'
The Tallest Man On Earth 'The Wild Hunt'

I'll finally, feel better when the winter's gone...
