There are 2 things that we know for a fact that are intense. Live Rammstein shows Japanese music fans Filmed in 2005, this recently posted video, showcases both. One insanely artistic and pyro loving band and 47 billion (that’s an exaggeration) squished Japanese fans. Continue reading WATCH: Rammstein – Mein Teil
Music is at its best when the lyrics and the actual notes can instantly stir up emotions. Maybe I am just more in tune to songs/feelings/sentiments at certain times in life, but Unsteady by X Ambassadors is the tune that makes me stop every time I hear it. X Ambassadors recently hit mainstream media when their song “Renegade” was featured in a Jeep commercial. I got … Continue reading Song of the Day: Unsteady by X Ambassadors
I can’t work when it is quiet so constantly have something playing, listening to music all day long. Every once in awhile a song instantly grabs my attention and I stop working and see who it is. That happened just now with A Taste of Silver by the band Until the Ribbon Breaks. I immediately listened to it 5 times in a row and sought … Continue reading Cool Tune Tuesday- A Taste of Silver – UTRB
More than anything music has the power to inspire, to move, to make you think, to make a difference. So I am grateful when I stumble upon an artist that writes songs that challenge me to think or feel differently. I was lucky to see Greg Holden perform three songs live and two of them brought tears to my eyes. The simplicity of his music, … Continue reading Artist Spotlight: Greg Holden
I have 3 episodes to catch up on so this is going to be a general summary. This season has just turned out to be way more explosive than I thought. And to be honest, I never saw this coming. So in Trust, Boyd successfully steals Markham’s money and while he is celebrating with Ava, SHE SHOOTS HIM, steals the money and leaves. NEVER did … Continue reading Justified Episode Recap: Catching Up
So apparently there is a genre of music called “alternative country” and I guess I like it, since I dig this band, straight from the musical mecca that is Indiana. They just released their first album called Little Neon Limelight and Sedona is their first single. Enjoy. Watch the video here. Houndmouth: FACEBOOK | TWITTER | WEBSITE | Order Little Neon Limelight on Itunes Continue reading Track of the Day: Sedona by Houndmouth
Who’s ready for the weekend? Who’s ready to not be at work? ME! ME! ME! Today’s track of the day comes from Irish rockers Kodaline. I first heard them in 2012 when their song “All I Want” hit the British charts. The video (s) made me cry and the song was eventually featured in Google’s 2012 Year In Review (which is a wicked cool thing I … Continue reading Track of the Day: Ready by Kodaline
After taking 8 years off, Modest Mouse is back, releasing Stranger to Ourselves last week. They have such a distinctive sound, thanks to lead singer Issac’s Brock voice which is at once stilty and smooth. And while the first two singles that were released are classic Modest Mouse, I like this one because it is a bit funkier with this great base line with echos of … Continue reading Track of the Day: The Ground Walks with Time in a Box by Modest Mouse
This is not a new song, but every once in awhile you need to hear a happy go-lucky song with a ukele. And as someone with an active imagination I really appreciate the lines: Although maybe all these moments are just in my head I’ll be thinking ‘bout them as I’m lying in bed And all that I believe, it might not even come true But … Continue reading Track of the Day: 5 Years Time by Noah and the Whale
My obsession with Swedish music is apparently continuing into 2015, this time with Kate Boy. Though the lead singer is an Ausssie (and freaking GORGEOUS), the rest of the band hails from Stockholm. They recently played SXSW and even got a “best of” mention from Spin.com. They are electro-pop at its finest with shades of New Order and Depeche Mode and I am really digging them. If … Continue reading Track of the Day: Northern Lights by Kate Boy
