a quick break from the road

I’m in for a few days and thought it would be nice to write a post about some songs I have been enjoying. So here we go, see you all soon. (Also I am not happy about wordpress changing my theme to show tags and categories above the post, I might have to drop a few dollars and get this blog to a decent host. We will see.)

New old unreleased Liz Phair. Great track, read more at Stereogum.

Cory Chisel – Home In The Woods.mp3

Refreshingly new Americana from Cory Chisel. Who ever you want to compare him to, be it Springsteen, Beatles, or Dylan, its good stuff. My brother will really like it. Read more at postcrescent.

Bell – Echinacea.mp3

Olga Bell is frequently likened to Bjork and to combat and distinguish herself, who better to cover than Bjork! Read more at 3hive.

American Football – Never Meant.mp3

Nothing like late 90’s guitar noodling and emo lyrics to start a summer day off right.

The Notwist – Where in this World.mp3

New Notwist. Nothing exceptional and the album is only par in comparison to Neon Golden. Can’t complain about more of the same great stuff though.

King Tut – What You’re After.mp3

King Tut is crazy weaving instrumental strings melded with sporadic electronic beeps. This song melts my mind and makes me at ease at the same time. Check them out at thesixtyone and download all their stuff for free.
