Florida based fuzz-pop outfit Surfer Blood are getting all kinds of crazy attention with the recent release of their debut LP Astro Coast . Are they worth the hype? Check out two tracks from the new album: Surfer Blood - Floating Vibes [mp3] Surfer Blood - Swim [mp3]
British indie folk singer deserved an honorable mention on our Albums Of The Decade post for her debut Alas I Cannot Swim . Now she is back with a new album slated for a March release titled I Speak Because I Can . The first single from this 10-track album is "Devil's Spoke." That is only half the news. Laura Marling is also planning on releasing another album by the end of 2010. She working on it as of now with producer Ethan Jones. The albums will have an air of "Englishness" and, of course, the trademark emotional [...]
Surfer Blood- Astro Coast (6)MP3s:Surfer Blood- SwimSurfer Blood- Floating Vibes/surferblood
My current addiction is Surfer Blood. I'm a sucker for any band with a garage rock feel. Just toss in some reverb and feedback to seal the deal. They remind me of old Weezer meets The Cribs. What a great combo, right? Listen to their album Astro Coast . SO GOOD! Surfer Blood - Swim (to reach the end) Surfer Blood - Harmonix http://www.myspace.com/surferb lood
Baroness is arguably the best metal band around, so you can understand the state of shock I was in when I heard Allen Blickle from the band decided to try his hand at remixing one of my new favorites. "Swim" from Surfer Blood is a standout single that is sure to help the band play much bigger stages than they've experienced so far. Seeing them rip through that track and a bunch of others at The Trunk Space a few months back, I can't see anything but success for them. There's no metal in the [...]
This young West Palm Beach, Florida band made a big splash months before their debut album "Astro Coast" was even released. Surfer Blood turns a mix of power-pop, retro-garage, surf, and more into something fresh and exciting. Recorded on 12/1/2009 - 3 songs: Floating Vibes, Swim, Catholic Pagans, Anchorage Sourced from: KEXP Live Performances Podcast
Everyone seems to talk to about Thanksgiving as if it is their favorite holiday. It makes sense: when it all boils down, no one loves gluttony more than an American. We can justify spending money on food (over presents), knowing that we will partake in shoveling these tasty purchases through our personal pie holes. More mashed potatoes, please! I'm cool with it. Especially when I know that the feed fest I'm attending is forty-five people deep. Forty-five people means a lot of conversations ("Have you put on weight?" "When are [...]
The sound of the 80s is coming back in a big way; however, only certain aspects of the decade are getting revitalized: post-punk, new wave, synthpop.Few bands are willing to tango with the era's grandiose guitar rock, but Florida's Surfer Blood is obviously the exception. With an obscene amount of reverb on the vocals, these guy's crank out the passionate riffs of Asia, and back it up with some
When life gets you down, you know what you gotta do? Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming sound bite Ellen DeGeneres sound bites "I know I can survive. I just don't wanna have to." Jack's Mannequin's EP, Dear Jack , was released this week in conjunction with the film of the same name. The band was formed as a side-project piano-based rock band by Something Corporate frontman Andrew McMahon. [...]
mp3: Surfer Blood - Swim This is was the other track I thought about posting of Surfer Blood. But I got antsy and decided to share it. Plus I've been a swimmer all my life so how could I stay away. whiteguyswithbeards say-th: "The current music influx of surf/garage/wave/whatever bands is a tad bit on the curious side given the current time of year (39 degrees outside by my thermostat) and many of these band's general proximity to water. I love a good fuzzed-out beach anthem as much [...]

So I've moved to East London, to Queen Mary University. It's good here, I finally feel like I'm not hanging around waiting anymore. And everyone likes good music! I've been to 3 gigs so far - money has stopped me from seeing more, most painfully Biffy Clyro with Manchester Orchestra and Frightened Rabbit, nice one money. Here's the run down of those I did catch. Monday 21st September THE VEILS w/ Swimming, So Say So - London Scala This was an exciting one. 2 days into living in London [...]
