New Dan Deacon - "Lots"
I think I prefer this new “regular” voiced Dan Deacon as opposed to super high-pitched mouse-voiced Deacon.

Watch the Throne - "No Church In The Wild" video
I’m a little late to the game posting this, but it’s just because, like Jay-Z and Kanye, I too have a strong dislike for authority. In fact, around these parts they call me Jaywalkin’ Jones…also, Douchenozzle Dave.

New Sigur Ros - Varuo
I really like you a lot Sigur Ros, and I don’t want this to come off the wrong way, but…look just let me say my piece. Almost all of your songs follow a similar pattern of starting off soft and quiet, and then gradually building up to a crescendo of noise. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a really neat trick, and was really cool on (), it’s just you’ve been using...
disco naïveté: stream: Alt-J (∆) – An Awesome Wave →
disconaivete:
I have no idea why Alt-J (∆) haven’t been featured on here before. I mean, they have a ∆ in their name, their debut album has the word “wave” in it and their sound is as colorful as the disco naïveté logo. This is much pop as it is indie, but more importantly: very enjoyable. The voice and…
Tessellate is probably my favorite as of now

I may have posted the youtube version of this before, but now i’ve added a title, which totally justifies a second upload.

Kitty Pryde x Okay Cupid
At first I wasn’t going to post this because I didn’t want my blog associated with musical abortion. But despite my initial hostility, I keep coming back to listen to this song. I think I’m a pedophile.

Movie Review: Dark Shadows (2012)
I wasn’t expecting much from Dark Shadows. Every trailer I saw looked incredibly stupid, and Tim Burton’s last, 2010’s Alice In Wonderland, was trash. And while there were definitely a good amount of groan-worthy moments, I actually didn’t hate the film.
I think my initial aversion to seeing this started when I saw the following trailer:
How many of your groaned the...

Dolphins shouldn't do drugs
NME:
“Two dolphins died after inadvertently overdosing at a rave in a zoo in Switzerland. The animals, called Shadow and Chelmers, died after taking heroin substitute Buprenorphine at an event which was held last November. It is thought that it was fed to them by party goers at the techno weekender at Connyland Zoo in Lipperswil, reports the Huffington Post.” Well duh. Everyone knows...

The Swede Beat Magazine » Deportees – A New Name...
theswedebeat:
The amazing vocals of miss Lykke Li layered with the sounds of tropical drums, the chorus of Sweden’s indie rock soul outfit Deportees and heavy harmonies in a new collab tune just revealed on the songstress twitter. “A New Name to Go By” expresses the brilliance of Swedish music right now.
(and with it’s breezy beats how much we long for summer.)

New Cocorosie - "We Are On Fire"
Their lyrics are still borderline nonsensical, but this is probably the closest CocoRosie have ever come to making a “radio-friendly” song. “Werewolf” is still the shit though.

Not only have singer Michael Angelakos’ vocals finally hit puberty, but this is probably the catchiest song about financial responsibility ever.

Movie Review: The Avengers (2012)
Damn, I’m really surprised at how much love The Avengers is getting from critics. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a fun film for sure, but when I read multiple reviews proclaiming it to be “the best Marvel film yet”, I have to wonder if I’m just an old grouch.
Let me first say that I have yet to see Thor, and many of the characters integral to The Avengers plot,...
