Άκουσα αρκετές φορές το εκπληκτικό Standing In Line τις τελευταίες ημέρες και το άφησα στην άκρη ώσπου να βρεθεί μια ευκαιρία για την παρουσίασή του, αναστενάζοντας "they don't make them like this anymore..", σίγουρος ότι πρόκειται περί κάποιου ξεχασμένου indie διαμαντιού από τα τέλη της προπερασμένης δεκαετίας. Όταν ήρθε η ώρα για το απαραίτητο research η έκπληξη ήταν πραγματικά τεράστια! Όχι μόνο συμπεριλαμβάνετ αι σ'ένα εντελώς καινούργιο, φετινό άλμπουμ [ See You Tonight ], τα μέλη του συγκροτήματος των Da Vincis από το Jackson του Μιssissippi που το ηχογράφησαν, δεν είχαν καν [...]

My goal for today was to wake up relatively early (10-ish), hit up my local coffeeshop, and work on some writing. I've got four long pieces that I'm trying to finish up for the blog - the extra hour or two gained by waking up early would have ensure that I'd get at least three of them posted by the end of the week. But yeah, it didn't happend. When I woke up today, it was almost 2pm. I went out last night, but only briefly (two beers), so I couldn't really blame that. Since I'm currently on [...]

The Da Vincis - "Standing In Line" "Standing In Line" is not a shockingly weird song, but there are enough unexpected bits in it for it certainly qualify as an unlikely oddity, particularly when you bear in mind that the band is a trio of high school seniors from Mississippi. The track begins with a guy crooning "I took a shower / I went to a movie last night / a woman approached me / and we became bff's that night / best friends forever, that's what we became that night" like a teenage Morrissey with a [...]

![The Da Vincis: 50's Film [Track Review]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/1942630_lg.jpg)
"50's Film" is your standard indie pop track influenced by an array of bouncy pop influences, but the band behind the song, The Da Vincis , is not your typical band. Their sound is mature and refined, yet the trio that make up The Da Vincis aren't even old enough to hold a high school diploma. The juxtaposition gives their songs a special style of innocence, one backed by expertly pieced-together pop. Keyboardist Andrew Burke lends bouncy notes and deep tenor vocals to "50's Film", while Gavin Fields backs him up on vocals and pounds out [...]
This is going to happen more and more as I get older, isn't it? Yet another extraordinarily talented band who are younger than me. Much younger. They all have the best part of a decade on me, which is bloody scary. Yet despite my default setting of hating them for that very reason, I can't because they are so good. Part of what makes The Da Vincis interesting is how they seem to have not grown up with the standard indie influences shaping their sound. These aren't kids that grew up [...]
The Da Vincis are a band from Jackson, Mississippi with each member still in high school and not older then 17-years of age. However, they have some serious talent making music is that is part jazz, lounge, all without a guitar. Expect a review of their debut album See, You Tonight (out October 27th later this year) but I'm here to talk about their fantastic cover of MIA's Paper Planes. It's not quite what you'd expect from the content but the band covers the song to their own unique style (a lounge cover of Paper [...]

by james eskeldson OMG ya'll, haters are sooo lame! Every time you try to do something new and interesting, every step of the way you'll find mad haters trying to eff with your flow. I mean come on peeps, wtf?! What's a brand gotta do to earn a little respect? I wonder if it's always been this way, if originality has always been met with distain from the public. DO [...]
Get your nerd on. Pretty much what the title says. Created by and available for purchase at iSteamphone , we thought this is pretty cool since the innards of iPhones are kind of underrated. They should release a completely clear iPhone. We should be paid for that idea if it becomes reality in the future. Damn. Shirt: Poster: And now for some Wikipedia information on da Vinci, just to refresh: Leonardo was and is renowned primarily as a painter. Two of [...]
