I’d just like to take a minute out of your busy lives and direct you to the best blog post ever over at I Guess I’m Floating. Enjoy! Be sure to thank them.
Titus Andronicus!
First of all, read this. I would not normally go to wikipedia for my source, but this article seems to sum it up quite nicely. In order to understand the band Titus Andronicus, you must first understand what it means to be Titus Andronicus. Ok. Good. Now that you understand what it means to be… Continue reading Titus Andronicus!
Murder Video – “Applejuice”
Here’s a video for Danish duo Murder. The song came out earlier this year on their album, Stockholm Syndrome. The band is currently touring in all sorts of places like Goningen, Bruegge and Antwerpen. Yeah, it looks like I’m not making those shows… [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AsKpFOF4-e8]
Newsflash: Coldplay Quitting?
Looks like Chris Martin is hinting at a Coldplay break-up within two years. He says he’s too old. Considering he’s 31, that should make us all feel really good about life. But hey, Coldplay can go on without him… …Or not.
Jonquil
Hailing from Oxford, UK, Jonquil mixes experimental pop with folk to create a different sound on each song. “Lions”, one of the songs on their recently released (November 18) Whistle Low EP, sounds eerily similar to Shearwater (a band many of you might be more familiar with) yet “Whistle Low”, the title track off the… Continue reading Jonquil
New Architecture in Helsinki Video – “That Beep”
“That Beep” has been out for a while to stream on Architecture in Helsinki’s web site, but now it’s officially released and has a full-fledged music video! The video looks to be inspired by either Apocalypto, an Of Montreal show, or maybe both. The song is supposed to be a part of the Aussie band’s next… Continue reading New Architecture in Helsinki Video – “That Beep”

Starfucker!
I really get Starfucker. This is because I have always wanted to hold a terribly depressing dance party in my apartment. Starfucker has managed to take that feeling and compress it into one self-titled album. There are three members of Starfucker, although I have no idea what their names are. Come to think of it,… Continue reading Starfucker!
Team Genius
8 members + inspiration = Team Genius. Allan’s World of Music introduced me to this band which has recently come out with a self-titled debut cd. They want people to get silly and dance listening to their music, with a mix of several instruments to create a kiddy, multi-layered, yet catchy effect. Drew Hermiller and… Continue reading Team Genius
Bodebrixen
If you want more proof that Europeans are much more fun than Americans, here’s Bodebrixen. They hail from Denmark, the land of good music, and give us strange, fun janglypop (ala Suburban Kids With Biblical Names). Using horns, guitars, synth and harmonization, they create a very pure, wondrous sound. Their sound is certainly nothing groundbreaking, but… Continue reading Bodebrixen
