you're just a victim of circumstance

White Rabbits - The Plot
We had Scottish outfit Frightened Rabbits before, now another rabbit's here to stay. I present, White Rabbits!

Modest Mouse - The Whale Song
The mouse is bigger than the whale.

As Tall As Lions - Circles
I'm beginning to see something.

Noah and The Whale - Shape Of My Heart
for your heart is like a flower as it grows/and it's the rain, not just the sun that helps it bloom/and you don't know how it feels to be alive/until you know how it feels to die

noah and the whale are just unique. can they be classified under a single genre? i don't know really. but can we love them? hell yeah!


so what do you see in this post? 1 chance only.





THE ANIMAL POST!

you've convinced yourself the book is never wrong

As Tall As Lions - In Case of Rapture
As Tall As Giraffes sounds logical, but As Tall As Lions is plain ingenious. Love their songs. by the way, did they derive their song title from some christian thing or sorts? it seems familiar, anyone can help?

The Dutchess and the Duke - Hands
They bring to mind Fleet Foxes and Shearwater. This duo, Jesse Lortz and Kimberly Morrison are ready to blossom with the follow-up to their debut album, with confidence stemming from extensive touring throughout 2008 in support of their debut, "She’s the Dutchess, He’s the Duke."

Onerepublic - Come Home

The Radio Dept. - David(mp3)

in case of rapture

St. Vincent - Actor Out Of Work
You're a liar and that's the truth/You're an extra, lost in the scene

very interesting lyrics indeed. the video was very artfully done, wonderful. the last part where the man suddenly stops crying totally capped the whole video sweetly.

St. Vincent is essentially Annie Clark, and Annie Clark herself. She cut her second album "Actor", from which this song was taken from.

St. Vincent - Laughing With a Mouth of Blood
Ok, to me, this song probably isn't the best she has out there, but the lyrics certainly struck me as sharp and telling a story. Maybe after a few listens, one may start to like it, but what took to me was the lyrics! from what it seems, it's about an abused wife, running away, and trading everything she has, for less. (or more, so to speak)


As Tall As Lions - Maybe I'm Just Tired

Magic Wands - Kiss Me Dead
