![[Playlist] A Meaty Vacationing Mixture](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4052057_lg.jpg)
Hello friends and others. I am off on a mini-vacation tomorrow (see above picture). When we get back from Mexico the plan is to finish packing up our house and move to Vancouver...finally. Life will be pretty wild over the next few weeks so I highly doubt that there will be much new music posted up here. As a present, here is a playlist that I will be listening to while sitting by the pool, eating tacos, drinking chi-chi's and playing some serious Scrabble. Till then... 1. Dirty Gold - California Sunrise [...]

My iPod is fully loaded with new mixes, my (single! carry-on!) bag is packed, and I am headed to London, Barcelona, and around Italy for the next eleven days. If you're in London this Saturday, Barcelona all next week, or Milano next Sunday night, I would love to hear from you . Andiamo! Always Spring - I'm From Barcelona N.B. I'm not really taking a boat to England, or Spain. It's just the song .

I hate packing...it sucks. Just about the only positive aspect to it is cranking your stereo and getting in the zone. Here is the soundtrack to my hump day pack-fest. Free mp3: Summer Camp - Better Off Without You Free mp3: The Ruminaters - Deadstuff Free mp3: Nerves Junior - Kale Free [...]

Click image to download track Sounds like: Sea of Bees, Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes, I'm From Barcelona, We Are Trees "Family of the Year - St. Croix" What's so good? I can't believe it's been 6 months since I last wrote about Family of the Year. Since then, they've been hard at work - coming off a tour and recording a [...]

I remember seeing these guys perform in a basement in Boston back in 2005. Their sound (and popularity) has come a long way since then. Produced by John Congleton (Explosions In The Sky, Okkervil River, The Mountain Goats), Hysterical marks Clap Your [...]

Whether you listen to an artist because they sound good or because you've been attracted by their name, either item always seems to be one of two reasons you've discovered any number of songs in your music library. Remember the old days before iTunes when you would look at the album cover and say, "Yup, I'm going to buy this". Now that times have changed and music is so readily available to us, it still comes down to the band name itself that can either make or break our decision to even listen to the artist. The list below represents [...]

Barcelona -It's only fitting I write about the band I'm From Barcelona whilst staying in Barcelona. Ironically enough, I'm from Barcelona is not actually from Barcelona, but a twenty nine person band in Sweden. That's right, 29 members. What are their riders like? Must be insane. They had a lovely jangly debut disk called Let Me Introduce My Friends a few years ago that was a great companion to my summer. They are back again with a new album, called Forever Today and with it comes a new single - Always Spring. [...]
"Somewhere it's Summer, somewhere it's always Spring..." these are the words of a band that knows how to enjoy life. I'm From Barcelona, now appearing on MTIB for the second time, have really caught my attention. I like their album artwork, I like there name (considering they aren't from Barcelona), but most importantly I like their music. It may not be amazingly groundbreaking, but I could clap
With an obscene amount of members that truly borders on musical perversion (can you find all the beards above?), Sweden's I'm From Barcelona typically has fallen flat on my ears. The collective depends too much on their gimmickry to weigh through the crowds of other Pop bands, but in the end two things hold them [...]

Click image to download single for free Sounds like: Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Polyphonic Spree, Peter Bjorn and John "I'm From Barcelona - Always Spring" What's so good? Romping through quintessential pop hooks, album title Forever Today fits like an old tee. Like their first, 20062s Let Me Introduce My Friends , it doesn't make strong turns in mood or momentum. A [...]
