Sleigh Bells - Comeback Kid
Yes please! But really, who goes grocery shopping with their guitar?
Cover of the song Peg from my favorite Steely Dan album.
The entire cover album is on soundcloud - it’s definitely not as good as the original (what ever is?), but its a fun listen.
The Naked and Famous No Way - this band reminds me of Passion Pit in a big way, except that their vocalists aren’t as whiny. Win.
Plus their video is like a wedding gone all crazy with Yakuza gang members from different centuries blowing shit up. Dan and Mir are gonna have a hard time topping this.
Bi-winning in my books.
M83 - Ok Pal
What’s up Bob Geldof?
GIRLS - MAGIC
Pretty happy about getting my hands on the new Girls and War on Drugs albums this week. I’ve been playing Broken Dreams Club at an unhealthy rate over the last year (to the point that Heartbreaker is comfortably topping my iTunes most played list - followed by the other 5 tracks) after a couple of listens of Father, Son, Holy Ghost there is a fair chance i’ll do the same with this one. Although I’m not sure about the metal riff on track 3 ‘Die’.

M83 - Midnight City
May be old news, but looking forward to this release.

Van city, circa 1995…grunge and plaid are where it’s at (actually plaid never leaves, does it?).
Local band, Mystery Machine, gets a spin once in a blue moon when I want to revisit the past. Enjoi.

the voice, the guitar solos, the lyrics, the choir…its all working for me right now.
i feel like Neil Young’s entire career just got the executive summary treatment within this one song. keep it up GIRLS.
how long did it take him to come up with this??
A propos of nothing, here is 4 songs I downloaded last week, in order of times I played them in iTunes.
4. Cass McCombs - County Line
Cass demands your attention. Listen how quietly he croons the chorus of this song. If you were chatting at the back of the club you wouldn’t even catch it. If you turn off your iPhone though it’s quite rewarding. He’s so 20th century.
