First Post
I'm not sure what everyone listens to but it seems to be right up my alley, so I guess I'll start off with the song that's been stuck in my head for the past week, enjoy.
You all have probably already heard of them. But they're just that good, I felt I should post them.
Justin freakin Vernon. He's the man.

City and Colour
Canadian side project of Alexisonfire's Dallas Green(get it?). Sad, poppish tunes on acoustic guitar. Green still manages to make a distinct sound that i find fairly relatable.

Stay or forever go
I was infatuated with this group for the longest time. There newest album was alright but I only like 2-3 songs on it. Everything else is amazing. Especially "Poor Leno."

i am the storm, and i am the wonder; and the flashlights, nightmares, and sudden explosions
Ruse, please use this song in one of your videos.
SAFARI. I want to rail you hard.
I just spent the past 45 minutes putting together a seriously boss post, and then Safari crashed, leaving me angry and put out by the whole thing.
I don't even want to write about why I chose these songs. It's too depressing now, but I'll put something. Just download them. They are awesome. Shit.
(right click downloads)
The Whitest Boy Alive – 1517 - Nice use of Daft. I dig. Btw I think Daft is touring in 2010? Definitely going. Definitely.
XTC - "Dear God" - Finally, and honest song.
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Hysteric .mp3 - "Flow sweetly. Hang heavy. You suddenly complete me, you suddenly complete me"
“Surfin’ Bird” - Bird is a Word.
Gil Manteras Party Dream - Elmo's Wish .mp3 - I love this song.
“Come Out, Come Out” - Specifically for Denesh, because I think it's a song he would like. "I want to be young, and I will scream at the top of my lungs, to go out, to wake up, and to break this fucking cycle!" Definitely influenced by some Silver Spun.
Bon Iver & St. Vincent – Roslyn - The best song I've heard in two months, easily. Props to Bon Iver. Been on Team Iver since the get-go, but he really worried me when he signed up with New Moon. No complaints. This is almost better than Blood Bank. Not quite Skinny Love, but close.
Anya Marina -Satellite Heart - Simple, cheesy, and sweet. Love it.
Cold War Kids - Audience Of One - Preety good.
W.A.L.E.D.A.N.C.E. – Wale - Thank you Wale for not fucking over a great song like 'Chiddy Bang' does in his sample songs. Song's fun.
End.
Love,
Cabin.

This past weekend I went to the fest, a music festival in gainesville, fl that primarily focuses on punk/hardcore bands. It was a BLAST; I recommend it to anyone.
So here's a rundown of bands that i saw and recommend:
Algernon Cadwallader
Very similar to Cap'n Jazz, only i feel like they have a much more organized sound. Screechy vocals on top of clean, minus the bear-esque riffs make up the majority of this band's sound. The music is very upbeat, the kind that'll keep you smiling through the entire set.
Gonna have to ignore the video on this one, it's just the best recording i could find.
One of the great things about the fest is that noone really knows these bands, so you get to hang out
with thems. Algernon is a cool group. We got a dance pit going during
Teenage Cool Kids
I hadn't heard of them before the fest, and i'd probably be a little more well versed if they had merch...
so i don't know the names of these songs, bear with me.
I've always quietly shook my head when people tell me that you can't dance to rock music. This was a
show where dancing just couldn't be avoided. Catchy, surf rock style riffs with a punk attitude.
Bridge and Tunnel
good ol punk rock. in this vid acousticized! i can't decide if i like this better than the amped version

children of nova
This band is a bit different than the usual stuff posted but
I can't ignore the musicality they have and the pipes on their vocalist.
This one goes out to a true AMURICAN, Austin Parker.

I think its marvelous and I wish there was more.
"The Sick Deal" it my favorite track off the album.
Here is the video of the track they contributed to (500) Days Of Summer!

HateFuck
The Bravery announces that they will release their highly-anticipated third album, entitled Stir The Blood, on November 10th. Slow Poison and Hatefuck are two singles.
into the mirror
Download: Into the Mirror
I'm in love with the synths and strings of this song.
It's great pop but they don't lose their musicianship & technicality.
The new album won't arrive until early 2010, but chin up
they're coming to Athens' 40 Watt on the 12th of November.

Yo! it's been a while!
Okay so with school and everything it's been tough on me to get anything posted on here, but i'll make up for it with some gnarley tracks.
I know you all probably know this song, but I have to say I don't care. It's so fucking good. I vibe to this everytime I switch class.
Download here
I love the Beach Boys bunches, and this wicked little remix to "Wouldn't It Be Nice" got me groovin, yo.
Right-click download Mp3:
Enjoy.

you can't take it with you
As Tall As Lions
This is their 3rd full length album and the songs I've heard already are superb.
I've been spinning a couple of their tracks in my car lately.
Also catch them live on November 6th at the Tabernacle when they play with Mute Math.
Volcano Choir.
Okay, so Volcano Choir, Bon Iver's side project just released their first single off their upcoming album set to be released September 22nd.
The song is entitled "Island, IS"
It's wonderful.
You can download and listen to it here.
a tasty treat.
the XX.
From London and apparently very young.
Don't know too much about them, but this song, "Crystalised" is superb.

Maps and Atlases
This is mathy, technical music. But rather than going all Yngwie Malmsteen, Maps and Atlases take virtuistic guitar playing and smack the egotistical pointlessness out. Their unique tapping riffs can sound blindingly fast or confusingly complex, but they mesh into an overall playful, enjoyable sound.

"If my entire life culminated in something which was a thousandth as brilliant as this, I would be very very happy. I keep coming back to this and thinking "it can't be that good" but it properly is. Wow! "
Beirut is an American band which began as a solo act by Zachary Condon and later evolved into a group led by Condon. Their music combines elements of Eastern European and folk with western pop.
