Did you like Waxwing? Do you like the blood brothers? Do you like folk? Ok, that's cool I guess. Rocky used to be in Waxwing, plays indie-folk-pop-country-hyphen stuff, his brother who plays guitar in the Blood Brothers used to be in waxwing, and the drummer for Waxwing now plays drums for Gatsby's American Dream. this is somewhere between ryan adams and sufjan stevens? and possibly better than both.



*very interested*

have you heard Sufjan's christmas music?

*very interested*

have you heard Sufjan's christmas music?
no, is it worth checking out?

[BigHedd]

no, is it worth checking out?
ya, its some beautiful music (no homo...even though this section of the board doesn't really warrant such defense mechanisms). Ill try to YSI, but I don't know how to send it as a whole album. Do u just dl whole albums from somewhere or just upload your own music? (in regards to getting music in general)

All the links I post in here I upload myself. I mostly download stuff through SoulSeek or friends will send me the records.

You could zip the album then upload that one file. That would probably be easiest.

arctic monkeys - demo
h--p://s25.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1VDGBLP75SNE61YZZXCRVJ1DHT
This band is plays clever "garage rock". I don't think they have an official release and they're already better than the strokes.

bloc party - silent alarm: remixed
h--p://s25.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3I0PPNSIS7IES2QX579E9A9ZUS
Their whole album remixed featuring contributions from Death From Above 1979, Ladytron, Nick Zinner, and more.

death from above 1979 - romantic rights ep
h--p://s25.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3GQXHL3XOUEZF2OWH1OWATMLLI
Download this if only for the disco Romantic Rights remix which I listen to waaaay too often.

deerhoof - the runners four
h--p://s25.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=2OZBPN9LI8G8837BG5F1BTFH7Y
I actually meant to upload the Green Cosmos EP, but I did this by mistake. Um, this is their new album. They try their hardest to tame their sound and they fail mostly.

denali - denali
h--p://s25.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1WWXOZZ8SCEGN26MRHNH5BSECM
Eisley for grown-ups. Sucks that this band broke up. Bella Lea will probably awesome when it releases the full length. Maura Davis is amazing.

enon - hocus pocus
h--p://s25.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3L334LOPMQHRL1HZJI65PU98VH
You need Enon in your life. Indie pop in the vein of uhh.. Metric. Better in my opinion, there is some depth here.

feist - live on kcrw (06-21-05)
h--p://s25.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3AOLIWZPCM3BU23P0XXL9TPUBQ
Audio from from a performance she did live on KCRW that I ripped myself. My mum likes Feist.

hello goodbye - heart attack
h--p://s25.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1SYB1AK50W13R1YZ2HPZ5QHHSU
Not the ass holes from Huntington Beach that think they're super funny, but should probably just shut up and make cheese synth-pop. But the indie band whose album was definitely overlooked.

joan of arc - a portable model of
h--p://s25.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=174I9347E4Y2C37HDD42QZAUTE
Pretentious indie rock. Not Blonde Redhead pretentious, but still, pretty pretentious.

the joggers - with a cape and a cane
h--p://s25.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3229EPIHAA2PK3S1X689456YVA
I guess this is the current it band. They are definitely more deserving than Wolf Parade (wtf issac brock should never produce another record). This is actually interesting I can't comment on how well these guys photograph.

lightning bolt - wonderful rainbow
h--p://s25.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1VJ7AIA43SKVX2SLS9Z5556S02
I was originally going to just describe this as "this band had sex with your sister", but I decided not to. New York City (i think) art-rock students make beautiful noise.

men women & children - demo
h--p://s25.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3DL257O0DPH6Q227SKY8SCEC8H
Ex-Glassjaw, ex-Rival Schools, ex-other stuff. If you like Head Automatica download this because it's better. Except for maybe beating heart baby. There are only probably 4 songs on this and the rest are interview sound bytes. I put this together myself, because I was bored one day. Disco is making a comeback I guess.

minus story - no rest for ghosts
h--p://s25.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=2WBBND8BQHW6R30NQT9RUGCDP3
This band will probably blow up soon. Listen to this so you can say you were a fan before they blew up. Laid back sound.

missy higgins - the sound of white
h--p://s25.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=04DP76YJN2OUM3ESVMLY8SYGBT
You may or may not know that I love cheese pop. Vanessa Carlton, Maria Mena, uhhh.. Missy Higgins. I don't know if two artists count as love. But she sings with an australian (?) accent and I think it's amazing. The songs are well written. You'll love it I swear.

ost - stubbs the zombie
h--p://s25.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3FEI653IYVIFE2NIEWZW4R32WY
This album is awesome. Death Cab for Cutie, The Raveonettes, Ben Kweller, Rouge Wave, etc. covering 50's songs. Like Earth Angel, There Goes My Baby, Lollipop, My Boyfriend's Back, etc.

the rapture - mirror
h--p://s25.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1FBPMU9MJZOWG071VXEYLPQQQM
Debut album from DFA "disco-punks". I like this album because it's noisy and obnoxious.

ratatat - ratatat remixes
h--p://s25.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=133S45SBO7FFP243ILCCKYDXIC
"I've been rhyming for about seventeen years..." Rappers on Ratatat songs. Method Man, Jadakiss, Ghostface Killah, Kanye West, Beanie Sigel, etc. AWESOME!

razorlight - up all night
h--p://s25.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1T4OSV32ZC0ME29D5RVNKL3C1Q
I don't know a whole lot about this band. I just know this album wasn't terrible and these fellows photograph well.

rival schools - rival schools ep
h--p://s25.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3VV61YX2NGISA32O4FWYPF7FQM
Some of my blink 182 punk rock friends showed me the Atticus dvd I think, and this band had a song called Good Things that I absolutely fell in love with. I thought the song was about minorities, but maybe that was my perspective influencing me.

rocky votolato - makers
h--p://s25.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=0PQ30927WEZV614V9JJ3TZOF3B

Indie pop band. Album is decent. Not a bad listen.

test icicles - for screening purposes only
h--p://s25.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=2JSU1R0M1W82W0XJVO4V3UX4O3
A band that since they're from the UK are probably getting more hype than they deserve. That isn't to say that this is a bad album. I guess they think they're clever naming their band test icicles and all.
