Wrestlers look to tame conference

The wrestling team will carry an overall record of 10-2 into this weekend. It's a record with which even the most pessimistic of college athletes would be happy. But you won't find any Hoosiers gloating about their winning percentage. They know numbers mean nothing in the Big Ten, by far the top conference in college wrestling.

You

You has proved the impossible possible. There is such a thing as white, 1980s Motown. Blowing Up is a work of warm, melodic art. This seven-song EP, born in Bloomington, adds an air of sultry freshness to the local scene.

Mode St.

Write It Down is coming into the world with a celebration, and rightfully so. Tonight at the Cellar Lounge, 123 S. Walnut St., Mode St. is having a CD release party for the birth of its first professional album. These 10 songs are worth every candle on the cake.

Legend Of Zelda: Mask Of Majora

Thirteen Days

True North by Fisher

Fans of the "Great Expectations" soundtrack might have caught Fisher's brief but amazing performance of the song "Breakable." With her major label debut, Fisher proves she is more than a one-note samba. The album starts off with "Hello It's Me," a strong opener that is a mixture of Fiona Apple and Tori Amos. In the title track, Fisher sends her love a message in a bottle, begging for forgiveness. The result is a dark and truly lovely song about longing and love. Fisher asks her listener to feel with each of her songs, and the listener is mysteriously compelled to do so.

Badly Drawn Boy

British music fans owe an enormous debt of gratitude to Manchester, England.

The Four Hundres

One of the strengths of Bloomington's local music scene is the sheer depth of styles represented. Indie rock often consists of two-chord punk or blind discipleship to the Beatles or Weezer or both. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but variety is the spice of life, and you are sure to find it here.
