The Shaky Hands have released their third album on the Kill Rock Stars label. This is the first album for them to make after their original drummer left in mid-2008. Between that and Nicholas Delffs' month and a half trip to India, these guys went into the study ready to make something different. [...]
Now I knew that The Acid House Kings were in the studio for a while. I've been impatiently waiting for them to wrap that up so we can get some new tunes. Well, just the other day I got news that Johan from Acid House Kings, The Legends, and Club 8 will write [...]
I figured it was long overdue for me to make a new compilation, so here's the latest one. I hope you guys will enjoy this one. I have some songs that you guys might recognize while there's probably a few you've never heard before, but all of the songs are great. I [...]
I just saw this video on some blog. I'm totally digging this video. It's one of the better one's I've seen in a while. The song is full of house funk and I'm loving it. Enjoy. Duck Sauce - Anyway
Red Sky is the first single from Eat More Cake's debut album, "Climb The Ladder, Live The Dream" and features the haunting vocals of Alexis Griffith. These guys have a chill electronica sound, which I'm always into. Eat More Cake consist of Andrew Briggs and Matt Pearn but were able to have Alexis Griffith come [...]
I just got back from seeing Edward Sharpe and The Magnetic Zeros last night. That was a really great show. This band has like eleven members in the band. It was worth the price of admission just to see how they fit everyone on the stage. Then to top it off, they had enough room [...]
The Mary Onettes new album is out and it's as good as they've hyped it up to being. I have a couple of links for you guys to check out. The first one is a track by track discussion of the album done by the band. It's always interesting to hear what [...]
Rökkurró is about to jump into the studio and start recording their new album. I'm all excited. They will be doing a blog during the recording process. Here's the link. Be sure to add that to your rss reader. They'll be adding photos and song samples, I guess. Rökkurró [...]
Have you guys heard of Moto Boy? If not, go check him out. He's very talented. He's putting a new spin to indie music right now. Let me put it this way, he released an ep of just classical songs like Ave Maria. It's pretty bad ass. Anyways, I [...]
You know, sometimes I can't really explain why I listen or don't listen to some bands. Right now, my latest example of a band I have no explanation why I haven't been giving more time on my iTunes would be Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. I had to have them thrown into my face before [...]
Kent has a remix competition guys. It seems pretty cool. If you go here, this is the site to do the remixing. Save your remix and the one listened to the most will win a deluxe edition of the album. I messed with the site a bit. It's fun. [...]
Eels released an album a few months back. I just recently got my hands on it. They've been around for quite a while and I never really gave them a listen. You know, they're not half bad. It seems like the band is really inspired because there are already plans for [...]

Boys Noize has his new album out this week. I have some tastes for you. Rozz Box is a free download he's offered on his website while the video is a live performance of Jeffer. If you've heard anything from Boys Noize's first album, Oi Oi Oi, then ...
Right now I'd say that these guys are arguably the best new band of the year. Yeah, I know that's saying a lot, especially with The Pains... being in the mix. The Pains are a really good band, don't get me wrong. They're definitely in the hunt ...
The new album, Röd, will be released November 6. This will be their 8th album and of course I can't wait to get my hands on it. The first single, Töntarna, is out digitally. I've been browsing the internet trying to find a place to buy the mp3's and haven't ...
I have to put this out there first, I love their name. I think it works so well for an alt. country band hailing from Ontario Canada. "Burnout" is their third album and will be released on October 6. This album is my first exposure to them so I don't ...
I just got my hands on some really good remixes. I wasn't really in the mood to post today until I heard these. Redlight seems relatively new since I'm not finding much on him, but I'm impressed with what I've heard so far. His Vampire Weekend remix was the most ...
I was sent this Italian band's debut album recently. Now, we've seen a huge resurgence of all kinds of 80's sounds. The Vickers excited me because they are one of the first bands that seemed pretty heavily influenced by the Britpop scene. I guess the Britpop scene ...
When I heard these guys were from Austin, I was quickly interested. What can I say? I have to support my fellow Texas bands. Wiretree is an indiepop band that has quite a bit of 60's influence. When I listen to them, they remind me of ...
