What great band have you just discovered?

i don't understand what that has to do with the mulleavys.

i don't know if bastille is good enough to make it regular listening, but i do like his voice and he sure knows how to kill a miley cyrus song. plus, nice shout out to make you feel bad for miley's dad.



all my last.fm "suggested artists" are stupid trite little girl baby doll bullshit. i've never been more disappointed in last.fm, seriously. i finally just went through and listened to the top track for all of them, and i'm like wtf is Haim. it sounds soooo Xandau Ballet and in the worst way possible. although last.fm did suggest blood orange which is good. Xanadau Ballet in the best way possible.

I have a hard time discovering new music because I don't have a vehicle (so I never listen to the radio), but some friends just turned me on to:

TV on the Radio: lovin Staring at the Sun and DLZ (of course I'm the last to hear of these guys)
Portugal. The Man: Purple, Yellow, Red and Blue, Modern Jesus, Evil Friends (probably the last to know of these guys too)
Dom Kennedy: My Kind of Party, Pleeze (again, I live in a cave)
Kendrick Lamar: Bitch Don't Kill My Vibe, A.D.H.D..

and so much more... No clue where I've been. Yeah. no excuses.
 
Just discovered Electric Magma, Cosmic Wheels and Samsara Blues Experiment. Highly recommended (pun intended :D )

well that's a graphic description.

i am in a music rut so i've taken to just downloading fan mixes from tumblr and going off to find albums of the few songs that stick out to me. most recently, Laura Marling - Hope in the Water.



"as a young woman i was obsessed with the fear of death. i was weird." laura, you're 24. i am still obsessed with the fear of death. this album is awesome. from what i've heard of her new album i don't really like it. but this one. this one i have been listening to non stop.
 
Some great stuff I've discovered

Foster the people
Air
The Walkmen
Cage the elephant
And especially

#LP (Laura pergolizzi ) (her live stuff on YouTube is incredible , especially her cover of beyonces halo)
 
^^ Congrats on discovering all 3 of those.

If you're digging The Clean, check out some other Flying Nun bands of the era - The Bats and Straightjacket Fits are two worth checking out.
 
i have recently been turned on to Isreal Nash and i'm full dick on boner for the guy. he's like neil young levels of haunting and bad ass.
