Music (Obviously)

Amazing new band find!
They are called The Crookes. They sound like a better version of the Smiths from the 60s.
They have many live videos on Youtube, but here is their music video for their extremely catchy and glorious song called "Bloodshot Days."
Enjoy

Another find is Modest Mouse. Although they have been around for awhile I never liked them until recently when I listened to what I would consider their magnum opus album, "Good News For People Who Like Bad News." Although every song is different, there is a consistent feel to every song, and they are a very original band. (Warning: You may have the sudden urge to play the banjo after listening.)
Songs I reccomend: The World At Large, Float On, Ocean Breathes Salty, Bury Me With It, Bukowski, Satin in a Coffin, and The Good Times Are Killing Me.
However, if you have the time, listen to the whole album.
Here is "Float On" which is considered to be one of their best songs.
Enjoy (again)

Now that you all have plenty of music to listen to, I will be signing off for the summer.
Have a good one.
Sincerely,
New Music

  1. Interesting ... they seem to have a flavour of Talking Heads
