LCD Soundsystem - All My Friends

I think we are going to be hearing a lot about this album this year. I have never heard LCD Soundsystem before and never listened to DFA but this song has me hooked. Its like Eno producing the Talking Heads all over again.

TFUL 282

OK, I think this is the last one. Thinking Fellers Union Local 282's Wormed By Leonard. This was their first album originally released on cassette in 1988. Listening to 'Trevor' it amazes me they were so tight and had such a mature sound on their first album. 'Narlus Spectre' shows their love of spaghetti westerns that would continue and with 'Scraping Skin of My Shoulder' the tape collages and oddities that would pepper all future albums and live shows.

Busdriver - Casting Agents and Cowgirls

I first read about Busdriver a few months back and not really digging what I heard I passed. This one makes me wish I hadn't.

His myspace has several others including 'Ethereal Driftwood' which has a nice Pink Floyd 'Set the Control to the Heart of the Sun' bass line.

CSS - Let's Make Love and Listen to Death from Above

I know very little about Cansei de Ser Sexy except that they are from Sao Paulo, Brazil and I have had this song stuck in my head several times over the past few months.

Top 56 Videos of 2006

H.Low, I have been choking on these 56 videos for a while now. Every time I watch one I feel that I must watch them all.

Laura Veirs - To The Country

I am going to take back what I said earlier about Laura Veirs. She rocks. Some songs from her new album, Saltbreaker, have been leaking out and I am sold.

Dirty Projectors

I am not too sure what to think about Dirty Projectors. They are all over the place and mash so many styles I can't put my finger on them. One second hate, the next, love. They were touring with Grizzly Bear but unfortunately will not be with them for the NC show.

Muscles - Ice Cream

I caught the little bastard so now it is time for some music.

I just heard Muscles for the first time about 10 minutes ago on Music for Robots and I am ready to listen to it 15 more times. MfR described it as TV On the Radio meets Hot Chip.

I dedicate part of this song to E.B. and L.B. who know how best to rock the Montreal nightclub scene.
