Recommendations
"Lust Lust Lust" from The Raveonettes is a very good album. I liked some songs off of their other albums but this one is special. My top album of the year, even though it was released in '07 in the UK-released in 'o8 in the US.
"A Mouthful" from The Do is a very good album also. The feel of the songs vary from one to the next. This might be my second favorite album of the year.
I'm still listening to the new Jenny Lewis so the verdict is still in the air.

Final note
The song by Smokekiller and The Ruby Suns are the only songs that I like from each band. Seek out the song but listen to the album at your own risk. I can't recomend the albums from the other artists because of the lack of good songs.
