Two cds - one picked up from a charity shop and the other was either a random purchase from the local market or from a mystery cd box on ebay.

Slightly Alien - Unlock
Generic indie rock & pop with slight grunge touches. It's alright and has some good (and a bit punky) lyrics but most of the best (musical) moments are ripped off other artists. The bonus track is the best of the songs worth keeping, 
tracks two (bouncy pop)- and  seven (a tender indie pop love song - bit Blur at their most heartfelt influenced, with maybe a touch of Lenny Kravitz circa Delicate) are the other highlights.

Rojor - The Thief Who Stole The Truth
Pleasant (slightly Celtic & Deacon Blue influenced) and occasionally bouncy, soft-pop about the strength of their love for a idealised girl and God. Some songs admit that their perfect would be love is damaged and questions their faith in the face of the world's pain and disasters but the album end with him embracing the love of God as bigger than everything else
