1	i (2004) more music like this by Magnetic Fields The explosion of material that resulted in the Magnetic Fields' triple-disc opus 69 Love Songs would've wiped out the average tunesmith, but mastermind Stephin Merritt wields a pen of bottomless ink. Like a long-distance runner, he paced himself, saving up material lest his many guises should grow restless. The 6ths released Hyacinths and Thistles ... see all copies from $4.18! new only from $7.18!
2	69 Love Songs (1999) more music like this by Magnetic Fields As the sprawling magnitude of its cheeky title suggests, 69 Love Songs is Stephin Merritt's most ambitious as well as most fully realized work to date, a three-disc epic of classically chiseled pop songs that explore both the promise and pitfalls of modern romance through the jaundiced eye of an irredeemable misanthrope. A true A-to-Z catalog of ... see all copies from $35.10! new only from $35.10!
3	Get Lost (1995) more music like this by Magnetic Fields Stephin Merritt's homespun (although not carelessly lo-fi) approach to electronic pop is a big part of the Magnetic Fields' charm, but he may be starting to stretch it to the limit with Get Lost. The most electro-oriented of their releases to date, it's also perhaps their least engaging, although the brooding ballad "Don't Look Away" is one of ... see all copies from $11.11! new only from $11.11!
4	The Charm of the Highway Strip (1994) more music like this by Magnetic Fields Stephin Merritt took more of a narrative approach than usual on The Charm of the Highway Strip, which was in part inspired (as the title indicates) by on-the-road experiences and exhibited a (very slight) country influence. Not as good as Holiday, although it has characteristically agile songwriting and production. Richie Unterberger, All Music ... see all copies from $11.27! new only from $11.27!
5	The Wayward Bus/Distant Plastic Trees (1995) more music like this by Magnetic Fields Magnetic Fields' first two albums, released in 1990 and 1992 on tiny indies and all but ignored until the release of this double CD in 1994, are among the most influential records of '90s indie pop. Resolutely unfashionable in the dawning of grunge, with their early-'80s synthesizers and deliberately twee lyrical preoccupations, these albums are ... see all copies from $11.27! new only from $11.27!
6	69 Love Songs, Pt. 2 (1999) more music like this by Magnetic Fields As the sprawling magnitude of its cheeky title suggests, 69 Love Songs is Stephin Merritt's most ambitious as well as most fully realized work to date, a three-disc epic of classically chiseled pop songs that explore both the promise and pitfalls of modern romance through the jaundiced eye of an irredeemable misanthrope. A true A-to-Z catalog of ... see all copies from $13.64! new only from $13.64!
7	Holiday (1994) more music like this by Magnetic Fields Magnetic Fields' third release, 1993's Holiday, was the first to be sung by Stephin Merritt, original lead singer Susan Anway having moved to Arizona from the duo's Massachusetts home. It's difficult to remember after several albums how profoundly odd Merritt's voice, a deep baritone with sleepy phrasing that vacillates mostly between the poles of ... see all copies from $9.97! new only from $9.97!
8	69 Love Songs, Pt. 3 (1999) more music like this by Magnetic Fields As the sprawling magnitude of its cheeky title suggests, 69 Love Songs is Stephin Merritt's most ambitious as well as most fully realized work to date, a three-disc epic of classically chiseled pop songs that explore both the promise and pitfalls of modern romance through the jaundiced eye of an irredeemable misanthrope. A true A-to-Z catalog of ... see all copies from $4.87! new only from $13.25!
9	Distortion (2008) more music like this by Magnetic Fields Stephin Merritt celebrates all that is fuzzy, sexy, and drenched in reverb on Distortion, a 13-track rendering of the Jesus and Mary Chain's Psychocandy through the barbed sieve of the Magnetic Fields mastermind's seemingly endless notebook of relationship dos and don'ts and self-effacing cognitive therapy sessions. The unwavering decision to ... see all copies from $6.95! new only from $6.95!
10	One Last Kiss (1992) more music like this by Various Artists This, spinART's initial release, fulfilled a very useful function when it appeared. The U.S. indie-pop revolution had been underway for a couple of years, but at that point the bands were still mainly represented (if at all) by small pressings of seven-inch singles or cassettes. This CD collects good songs already released on 45's by other labels, ... see all copies from $2.99! new only from $29.96!
11 view cover	MRG 100 Re-Mix: Merge 100 Remix EP (1997) more music like this by Various Artists To commemorate Merge's 100th release, the label had Mark Robinson (of Unrest fame, and head of the wonderful TeenBeat label) remix six tracks from the label's catalog. Strange as it is that Merge head Mac McCaughn didn't do the honors himself, Robinson -- one of the few people in the world who understand that "remix" doesn't have to equal "dance ... see all copies from $10.15! new only from $10.15!

13 view cover	Knitting on the Roof (1999) more music like this by Various Artists Knitting on the Roof is a compilation of various klezmer, jazz, and rock bands covering songs from the musical Fiddler on the Roof. It's a great album for fans of the musicians present, as well as a fun introduction for new listeners with irreverent sensibilities. There are heartfelt renditions found in the mix, such as the beautiful and tender ... see all copies from $5.02! new only from $11.70!

15 view cover	Oh, Merge: Merge Records 10 Year Anniversary Compilation (1999) more music like this by Various Artists The respected indie label Merge Records celebrated its ten-year anniversary with Oh, Merge, a collection of mostly rare and unreleased tracks from some of its finest artists. The album displays Merge's diversity, showcasing old-school indie rock from Guv'ner, Spent, and label founders Superchunk along with the post-rock of Ganger and lo-fi ... see all copies from $13.80! new only from $13.80!
16 view cover	The House of Tomorrow (1996) more music like this by Magnetic Fields The House of Tomorrow sees Stephin Merritt recording perhaps his most indifferent, ironic songs. The EP's five songs are built on both musical and vocal repetition, so much that the sleeve reads "five loop songs" as a pun on "five love songs." The EP might be Merritt's most lo-fi, yet austere, recording. It's as if Merritt has attired himself in a ... see all copies from $9.11! new only from $9.11!
