A couple of weeks ago while coming back from Vancouver BC, where they were opening for "of Montreal", they had a bad traffic accident, no one was seriously hurt but they lost their van, all their equipment and all their gear. what is it with bands and van accidents? obviously, they drive lots of unsafe vans in unsafe conditions, but its amazing how many of these things happen. and the song is pretty good, that keyboard gives it a Doors-esque vibe. --- Heard this for the first time the other day - Spins by Potty Mouth -- this sounds like vintage early 90s indie rock Doors. Exactly what I thought of. |

Whatever happened to Eagle-Eye Cherry?  i thought that was a band name, its actually means a person?!?! wow. he released an album in 2012, fairly catchy song, so he hasn't run of out ideas yet. |

Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks - Lariat
there was a time where malkmus playing music like this was radical. it stoppped being radical around 1994, but this new track is still sweet.

The new album by Arcade Fire is getting a lot of play lately on the listeners supported station I listen to; KEXP.org
I wasn't that big of a fan of Arcade Fire until I watched this video (below) last night of them performing live at Coachella in 2011, all hour and a half of it.
Quite an amazing performance. The video is well shot and has excellent sound quality for a live outdoor performance.
I am now in love with the Régine Chassagne but unfortunately she is married to the other lead vocalist Win Butler

When I heard yesterday that Nelson Mandela had passed way I requested my favorite radio station KEXP.org to play "Free Nelson Mandela" by The Specials , which they did, beginning a musical tribute to Mandela. This version of it on YouTube is nice, it has a chronological slide show of Mandel's life. (I recomend watching it in full screen view)
