As music critics, the most common question we get asked (and ask each
other, for that matter) is, “What are you listening to?” The
pervasiveness of this query is precisely what inspired Heavy Rotation,
our latest feature. For the benefit of those who happen to be curious,
we’ve compiled a list of all the things we’re listening to this week.
Feel free to chime in with picks of your own after the jump.
