60 Watt Kid is on the far side of far out. Experimental, fuzzed out sounds encroach on a tribal, thumping rythym while the dry sounds of the vocals keeping yelling "every day!" Courtesy of Absolutely Kosher
Ben + Vesper make the kind of folk-inspired warmth that you can listen to over and over again. Nice vocal harmonies (they're married) with steady and lively songs about existential things like maxing out the credit cards. Courtesy of SoundsFamilyre
Ladies and gentlemen, with Clipd Beaks, I give you the first band offering worthy of the Fall season. Experimental and scary, Clipd Beaks uses subconscious themes to a devastating effect, and the power of that sound might freak you out.
Slow and abstract, but with a sharp focus. The strings glide in over the top
of the music and the piano provides a dry backbone to the melody. Then the
vocals mesmerize the song.
Though many tracks out on the indie airwaves these days are bleak and forlorn, Jens Lekman's lyrics and music would taste like sugar crystals and gum drops if you could take a bite out of them. I kid you not, if you're looking for some feel good music this is the album to buy, it is (for the most part) audible sunshine. Even during the song that is written about a job that sucked, Friday Night at the Drive-In Bingo you just want to hum and bounce around while you listen and relate.
Deerhoof have released a free MP3 album of live performances,
outtakes, remixes, and covers. It's currently being offered on the
