AWOLNATION is a refreshing new electronic band that released their " Back From Earth " EP in May of twenty ten . The album does a fantastic job of including soul-felt vocals that are often absent in electronic music.

I recently got an email from my friends, Mitten , letting me know that their new EP "See You Bye" is finally finished. This is the first time in awhile I've had a hard time deciding which song to post. I instantly fell in love with the electro pop elements found in "All That I've Got". Then the second song kicked in and I couldn't help think, "If the Silversun Pickups had a female vocalist, you'd have "Cavalcade". I always look forward to well rounded albums, so thank you Mitten for delivering. Mitten [...]

Oxford, UK brings us a new single out of Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs entitled "Household Goods". Yes, this is a mouth full... but I'd be lying if I said I didn't wish there were more artists and songs with ridiculously long names. Can you imagine if he was dead set on the name " Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs " and came to find out it had been taken? I guess it would be one of those, "OMFG, REALLY?" moments... followed by 15 minutes of staring at the screen in disbelief. Or maybe there were [...]
