let's not try to figure out everything at once



The National - Fake Empire

Mackintosh Braun - Wake Up
Chuck (the show) brought my attention to this song of theirs. Here was fantastic and this revels in the same electronic soundscape. Pleasant and easy on the ears, with a simple beat that makes you tap your feet, I really think these guys are one to look out for. This is what they said of their album, "The idea was to create an album that you didn’t have to skip through, hopefully this is one of those albums for people."

Scanners - Salvation

Wild Beasts - Two Dancers I
One of the most underrated bands of last year, they were stellar and slipped under the radar of most. Raw and filled with vivid imagery (not very pleasant ones), the outcome is a gritty and tight song that makes one feel disconsolate.
