I just found a new group called Low vs Diamond. They're pretty good, sound like a mixture of The Killers and Muse. I think you'd like them Sway.

Could not agree more Sway.

This may be a hard request, but i can't for the life of me remember this band. All I can remember is that there are 3 members (2 guitarists and one drummer) and they're all black. In one of their videos I think they were in a hospital? I can't even remember the genre, though I think it's hard rock.

Let's see... some of the stuff I've been checking out recently. Brian Eno, Philip Glass, Van Der Graaf Generator, Miles Davis, Mahavishnu Orchestra; Giles, Giles, & Fripp(Fripp is the guitarist and only mainstay member of King Crimson which made me check this out); Acid Mothers Temple(Crazy psychedelic rock group that's split into a bunch of different subgroups, only listened to a bit of it but I like what I've heard), and Kinski.

...Also what Sway posted is awesome.

My new favourite band is USS (Ubiquitous Synergy Seeker), they're a Canadian band so I'm not sure if they get any play in the States.

Not sure how to describe them, I use "awesome".
"Pss, hey Guido, its all so clear to me now. I'm the keeper of the cheese and you're the lemon merchant, you get it? And he knows it. That's why he's gonna kill us. So we got to beat it, ya, before he let's loose the marmosets on us. Don't worry little missy, I'll save you!"

Man, I just got back from a Black Keys show at First Ave in Minneapolis... fucking incredible, the best live show I've been to. I still can't hear anything.

I thought I'd take a moment to feature two little-known artists I enjoy.

Quote

The Pack A.D.

Following in the tradition of the Black Keys and the White Stripes, the Pack A.D. play a blend of rock and electric blues. The female duo is comprised of drummer Maya Miller and vocalist/guitarist Becky Black, both of whom left their previous Pixies-styled band to focus on bluesier music. After emerging in 2006 as one of Vancouver's more buzzworthy bands, the Pack A.D. signed with Mint Records in 2007 and released a debut album, Tintype, the following January. Funeral Mixtape, the duo's second offering, was issued eight months later. The group toured heavily in support of both releases and eventually returned to Vancouver, where the bandmembers holed themselves up at Hive Studios and began tinkering with new sounds. Although still a blues band at heart, the Pack A.D. found themselves drawn to punk and garage rock, both of which steered the sound of 2010's We Kill Computers in a slightly different direction.


http://www.myspace.com/thepackad

My favorite tracks include Deer, Don't Have To, What's Up There, and 1880. A couple more good samples are Crazy and Making Gestures.

The Tamborines

The Tamborines came to being when core members Lulu Grave (Keyboards, Percussion) and Henrique Laurindo (Guitar, Vocals) started recording some songs on a 4-track in their bedroom in West London. They have been rapidly gaining acclaim throughout London with their mind-blowing, synthesizer heavy, tripped-out live shows. Raised on a diet of underground indie, Bergman movies, and distorted guitars, The Tamborines combine their daydreaming sound with an art aesthetic that blends West Coast Pyschedelia with the noir of The Velvet Underground. The result is jangly guitar pop and hypnotic hazy retro organ with almost unsettling undertones.


http://www.myspace.com/thetamborines

The Tamborines just released their first LP at the beginning of this month, Camera & Tremor, and it turned out really well. My favorites include Sally O'Gannon ("Sally O'Gannon" EP version), 31st Floor, and On Yr Own. Most of their album can be found on their MySpace page.

Alright, until next time.



Edit: Also some dope new shit from Cee-Lo Green of Gnarls Barkley fame: Fuck You

So I recently fell in love with the Decemberists. I think it was the Rake's Song on the Hazards of Love that got me, but fuck if I know. I know Meloy's voice is a little nasally, but it's the historical references I really love, and with the Hazards of Love, the rock opera they made, it really tells a whole story really well. I'm not good at articulating why I like things.

Yay music.

I'm not wild about the Decemberists or anything, but yeah, they make some good music. It's... I don't know, quirky, and wistful. My favorites from them are probably The Infanta and When The War Came.

Anyone listen to Boys Noize? I was told he made new album, but I can't find anything on it.

Oh and Nobody Beats the Drum always has the best videos for their songs.


That's a lot of stop motion.
