It's about that time of the year again when we love the weather. For a few weeks before we start hating it (as it engulfs our roads and our homes). But right now, we're all, "Hey rain, you're awesome!" To celebrate that feeling, we've created our very own deluge-ional mixtape. Cloud Ten is a selection of ten free MP3s we've put together, along with specially created artwork, that we think should keep you in good company till your house goes under. Download Cloud Ten !
Free Press Houston are throwing down a two day Summer Fest this August 8th and 9th at Eleanor Tinsley Park in Houston, TX. Tickets are at $7 for each day or $12 for both days if you prefer, which is basically nothing.

![[Concert-Goers: The Delusional Best Friend of the Band]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/1799147_lg.jpg)
[The Delusional Best Friend of the Band] Concert-Goers is a series aiming to outline all the people you're bound to bump into at a concert. Admittedly, I've fallen into some of these categories. Chances are you've been guilty of being one of these people too. As much as we typically hate these people, it's just not a concert without at least one of them present. The delusional best friend, for me, is the saddest sight to witness on this list. Why I'd be sad for him though, is [...]

Voxtrot will be coming to Los Angeles on July 18 to play FMLY's Beach Dazed along with some other homies that we adore. If you're unfamiliar with Voxtrot the band has become a go-to name in the current Austin music scene and to critic acclaim is certainly a top popper on the indie charts. On March 22 Voxtrotter Jared Van Fleet announced via Twitter that his days with the band are over, but we have given praise to his tough decision for this reason: when I spoke to Jared in 2007 regarding his solo [...]
Sorry for being M.I.A. for the last ever, but more on that at a later date.Instead, a new track from Voxtrot.HOORAY!***Trepanation Party - Voxtrot
This is an interesting weekend festival taking place August 8-9 in Elanor Tinsley Park in Houston, TX, featuring Of Montreal, Broken Social Scene, What Made Milwaukee Famous and Explosions in the Sky, among others. Lineup looks cool, but Houston in August is literally the worst place on the entire earth outside of an active war zone. But, tickets are super cheap ($12 for the weekend?!) so it's a tradeoff. Get tickets here and find the lineup after the jump. Broken Social Scene Explosions in the Sky [...]
I don't really have too much to say today. I may have to take my mac in for a quick repair. My audio jack got fucked up and obviously that is a big problem for me. A even bigger problem is that they say it may take 3-5 fucking days just to repair this. Something tells me it should not take more than a few hours though....hmmm. Anyway, if you don't hear from me for a while remember this! Here are some songs to rock out to this weekend! : [mp3] : Yeah Yeah Yeahs [...]
" Jared: That's the one, all the other nine songs…like the four other songs on the first EP and the five on the second EP were recorded with Eric W. That one was recorded with Craig Downing at Esophagus. That song is about as old as the band, about three years old. It's one of the first things we did and it is quieter, and our equipment was different we were still figuring things out. It is different. Mitch: The back catalogue has such a wide spectrum of production styles. Jared: Yeah you'd be surprised. There's some stuff that doesn't [...]
F.I.N.A.L.S. are coming up and I'm getting particularly stressed. Here's a study playlist to keep you guys going: 1. Say Hi - November Was White, December Was Grey I can't stop listening to this song, puts me in a great mood every time 2. Voxtrot - Whiskey If you're stressed out, this is the song for you 3. White Rabbits - Percussion Gun A nice [...]
Fresh off his Colorado stop , Sam Beam swung by Jimmy Fallon last night to perform the stunning unreleased "Godless Brother In Love" (which you can see here ). As a bonus, he also sang this lovely version of New Order's "Love Vigilantes," featured on his new double album Around The Well : I've also been listening to Voxtrot 's cover over the last few days - I've had them [...]
In case you missed it last night, Justin Timberlake brought the funny back to SNL with his uproarious "Mother Lovers". This ones for all the MILFs out there. Ok and now some songs that are safe to share with mom. After all it is her day!Mother and Child Reunion - Grizzly Bear (Paul Simon cover)Your Mother Loves You Son - BeulahMothers, Daughters, Sisters & Wives - Voxtrot
Our resident film-square-girl, Alyssa Kleven (see our live footage), was recently asked to suggest a few kid-safe tunes for a friend that had grown weary of listening endlessly to Hannah Montana overhead while she worked at her day job, teaching art to four-to-eight year olds. Just a few songs? Well, she might have gone a little overboard. Grab a swirly straw and a juice box and enjoy over the weekend. *MP3: The Go! Team - "Junior Kickstart" *MP3: Alphabeat - "Fascination" *MP3: Yo La Tengo - [...]
A surprisingly big weekend around the region this time around--which is a pretty good lead-in to next week's also surprisingly big week. First, the shows we've already talked about... Right now at Bil...

In perhaps the least publicized show of the weekend, Mount Righteous will be joined by the likes of Pheonix, AZ's Kinch and Austin's own Voxtrot tomorrow evening at University of Dallas (in Irving). I've taken the liberty of checking tomorrow's forecast for you, and don't worry it should be sunny and 70's by the 8PM show start. As a bonus, Voxtrot has offered a free MP3 of "Trepanation Party" to promote the show. MP3: Voxtrot - Trepanation Party =w=
Voxtrot - Trepanation Party MP3 After botox parties the next hip thing: Trepanation party... Great!

Considering that many members of the FMLY are in college and we're nearing finals, it's important to create a playlist to keep you up during those all-nighters. I won't divulge what is on my personal playlist coughfalloutboycough, but here are some excellent tunes to keep you up and atom for whatever it is you're up studying for...not like it's 2:00pm here or anything and I still haven't passed out. Instead of going way of posting awesome sleep related tunes like Grouper, Bonobo or early Arcade Fire, this is more of an uptempo grouping of songs to pass the time until [...]
Große Neuigkeiten, kleiner Post: Voxtrot sind wieder da! Mit "Trepanation Party" haben sie einen kostenlosen neuen Song zur Verfügung gestellt. Man munkelt, es würden noch mehr neue Lieder geben, sprich, die Jungs sitzen an einem neuen Album. Überraschend für mich ist der Sound. Voxtrot bewegen sich anscheinend jetzt mehr auf 80s-The Cure-Kurs. Gefällt aber sehr! Hören: "Trepanation Party"
I haven't posted a ton of MP3s lately. Blogspot has been maniacally removing MP3s left and right from its bloggers' pages (Note: If you're thinking of starting a music blog, don't choose Blogspot as your host!) Here are a few quality tracks that are artist-approved: MP3 : John Vanderslice - Fetal Horses (from Romanian Names ) Song from John's upcoming album, which hits stores May 19. MP3 : White Rabbits - Percussion Gun (from [...]
