Volcano Choir "Byegone"

Oh hey, what's up? Here is this new song from Volcano Choir for you to hear. You can just keep it for as long as you want. I was done with it anyway. Well it was good seeing you, I guess call me if you want to hang out or anything, or don't you know, whatever (laughing). Ummm, well see you around. Bye.

Cayucas "East Coast Girl"

I just really like Cayucas, especially on a Friday. They make me feel like I am cruising across the ocean with two dolphins strapped to my feet. You know, happy.

Gauntlet Hair "Human Nature"

I feel like all the cleverness in my body has dried up and been replaced by the overwhelming desire to take a nap. I am just going to put this song on repeat and curl up into a ball and listen to this for the next few days. Let me know if anything else bad happens. On second thought, let me know if anything GOOD happens.

Premier!!! Polytype "Cyclone"

Last week Polytype sent over their new song "Cyclone" and I listened to it. I liked it so much I put it on Youtube, and then posted it here this very afternoon for the world at large to listen to. If you keep starring at the screen waiting for those guys on the bed to move... they do, but not until after around the 2:50 min mark. I promise!*

*I am totally not telling the truth.

Weekend "Mirror"

Try listening to this song with your ears AND your heart. It's better that way, metaphorically anyway.

Akron/Family "Until the Morning"

Just for fun and because it's Thursday and because Thursday is one of the best days of the week (aside from Friday through Wed anyway) I present to you the mp3 uploaded to Youtube of Akron/Family's "Until the Morning" from Sub Verses that is comes out in a million days or April 30th I guess. Just a few days before I might even be watching them play at Crescent Ballroom on May 5th

No Joy "Lunar Phobia"

This isn's so much a video as it is a song uploaded to youtube with trippy ass visuals. But I think it's just supposed to be a song uploaded to youtube with BONUS trippy ass visuals added in for our viewing pleasure. Oh and what a pleasure they are/were! Can't wait for their new album Wait To Pleasure (pun mostly intended... mostly)

Akron/Family "No Room"

I like how the provided the song, the band picture, the album cover, the album name, the release date and the label name all in one convenient package. Really makes my job easy... my job that previously was super hard! Thanks Akron/Family!

Thao & The Get Down Stay Down "We The Common (For Valerie Bolden)"

The above photo was from all the way back in 2009, all the way back in the year that the last Thao & The Get Down Stay Down put out an album. The song below is from 2013 and the new album that is coming out on Feb 5th. So many things have changed since 2009. If someone wouldn't mind listing them all in the comments I would appreciate it.

Grizzly Bear "Yet Again"

It feels like 2009 all over again with Grizzly Bear and Animal Collective both coming out with albums again. I only wish it really WAS 2009 again. Back before I decided to move into this tree house in the Bolivian jungle. Sure it's private but these snakes are literally killing me.
