VNV Nations' new CD is his best yet, it is truly awesomely brilliant, exciting and all those types of things. It's still futurepop rather than the EBM that VNV started out as. It's a dark, brooding and yet pounding masterpiece.
Likewise, Assemblage 23's new album is also pretty good.
(Er, I've been to Resurrection Records... it's been ages since I got some CDs)
Also I picked up a Icon of Coil remix CD, which is on-average better than their (sometimes badly judged) albums.
I've also picked up (but not listened to) a Combichrist CD, and (more riskily) an Ayria CD because I liked "Horrible Dream" that I have on a compilation.
I've finished reading Prof. Richard Dawkins' The Selfish Gene (1976)... and well, it was so amazingly good that I'm going to have to write out my thoughts when calm, relaxed and objective. He is my greatest hero.

There's an RSS feed available for LJ on there, too.
Thanks zazz!
For me its best point was the endless citations of statistical facts, sociological data and surveys, etc... a veritable arsenal to help out the buddhist explicit atheistic soldier!
