Finnish indie-rock-band Tinker has released 3 new demos, and all of them are worth an earful. It's amazing how easy it seems for them to create those catchy songs. I can only repeat what I've written before: in a perfect world, these guys would be huge! Check out the songs (and the older ones on the official homepage!), and visit them on MySpace. http://www.tinkerwashere.net/ http://myspace.com/tinkerband [...]

I just got a nice gift of Central Services (pic) from Fanatic Promotion , I've still got some Dora Flood , some SXSW band-age, and some other goodies. What I don't have right now is an excess of time, so let's get down to bidness. (I desperately want to hyphenate that Central Services song, but will post it as given.) Central Services - 4 Letter Word mp3 Dora [...]

Haven't really had time to listen to some new music to recommend you, so I just give you a few gems from Last.FM 's latest free download charts ! Of Montreal - Disconnect The Dots (you really have to turn up the volume here... makes the song even more enjoyable!!!) Circa Survive - The Great Golden Baby (never heard of them before, but this really is a great song! Feel free to give me [...]
VIOLA - SAD EYED DISCO DANCERS “I'm lonely, you're lonely too†It's not often that a song manages to be both irresistably dance-worthy and darkly melancholy at the same time. The Pet Shop Boys, for sure, have managed it. And, this song by prolific Finnish duo Viola certainly fits the bill. The group's first release back in 2001 was titled Only Pop Music Can Break Your Heart , and I think this really says it all. Since [...]
