The Drums new video for their track Down By the Water seems to be a video for a early 60’s based Happy Hands club. The song has a slow chilled out echo vibe that’s good for listening on these last days of summer. Check the video, and if you want grab the mp3 as well. Hear Down by the Water.

Pete Yorn released a new single for his upcoming self titled album. The album will release on September 28th, from Vagrant Records. The single, Velcro Shoes, is a stripped down rock song about the thrills of childhood, including velcro shoes, tree houses and go karts. It’s a fun, freewheelin, jangly song thats certainly going to provide for a fun ride in the car. Pre-order his new Album.
1 CommentJanglin (RAC Remix) Home (RAC Remix) This came across my desk just in time, and it’s definitely one you should check out, before you head out for the weekend. Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros’ performance at the Newport Folk Festival was one of my fondest memories of the weekend. They are one of the most dynamic acts out there and their album Up From Below is definitely on the top of my list of best albums of the last year.

Leave a CommentI Walked Here’s “I Walked,” from Sufjan Stevens’s upcoming The Age Of Adz. Interesting sound, it’s sort of electronic like, and kind of proggy. What do you think?
Leave a CommentBorn Again I had first gotten wind of Cory Chisel when he played the recent Newport Folk Festival. On my way to see the David Wax Museum, I passed by the stage where Cory Chisel & the Wandering Sons were playing. I stopped and listed to him play the first track off of his latest album, Death Won’t Send a Letter, Born Again. Chisel’s music has a haunting, folk-soul vocals and lyrics which are complemented by sounds of oboe, piano, bass violin, and percussion. All together it creates a near gospel-like folk rock that will bring you back again and…
Leave a CommentI posted on Mt. Desolation back in June, and it’s come to my attention today that they’ve released album artwork, a new website, and a European Tour (please tour the US). If you’re not aware of Mt. Desolation, check out their track, Departure and State of Affairs, which i posted a few months ago. To give you a little background, Mt. Desolation is the alt country side project of Keane’s Time-Rice Oxley and Jesse Quin with help from friends from bands such as Mumford & Sons, Noah & the Whale, and the Long Winters. Look forward to their upcoming…
Leave a CommentThis is the video for MGMT’s Congratulations. From what I remember of the album, it was the only track I actually got into. Really not sure what these guys are in to, but the video is very strange. It’s very bizarre… what do you think?
