Cloud Nothings

Turn On

Don't be fooled by the minimalist album art, there is a lot of scuzzy-hot goodness going on in this album. I could (and have) listen(ed) to "Hey Cool Kid" all the livelong day.

What are the lyrics??? What are they SAY-ing?? No one knows! But it sounds super rad, so who really cares anyway, right?

DEAD NUNS MIDWEST HARDCORE

Tough shit resides here.

Fidel Catastrophe

And The Bleak Shall Inherit The Earth

Fidel Catastrophe is headed by the Original bassist of the Pomegranates (they're on their 3rd bassist right now), who is clearly a force to be reckoned with. They've been plugging their music via Band Camp, a site for unsigned bands that I'm growing more and more enamored of, though I'm surprised that anticon hasn't swiped these guys yet. They put me in mind of a poppy, concise version of Thee More Shallows combined with a less nasally and less rap-prone Yoni Wolf.

They also only have 3 songs available for download right now, and I've had them on repeat all day. I'm in band-love, guys. Deep, deep band-love. As far as I can tell, they're pressing vinyl right now, so there aren't any tracks on what.cd or waffles.fm. I want an album! The suspense is killing me!

Oneohtrix Point Never - Returnal

Oneohtrix Point Never - Returnal (2010)

More awesome music from this dude. This new one is really cool, it starts out on this kinda noisy track with lots of random bits kinda thrown in their, reminds me of some of his stuff from KGB man. The rest of the stuff on their is what you would mostly expect to hear on an Oneohtrix record I suppose, but that can't really be a bad thing. Definitely a good listen for the summer too, enjoy!

Octaves - Greener Pastures

Octaves - Greener Pastures

I stumbled upon these guys the other day and was instantly charmed by their list of influences, which included such greats as pg. 99. Their music didn't fail to deliver. Though obviously influenced by such bands as Dillinger, La Dispute, and The Chariot, Octaves still has their own sound, and it's a fantastic sound devoid of pussy singing and tacky sweeps.

From what I can tell, Octaves seems to be yet another tragically unrecognized band. I can see no reason that they don't have more than 304 listeners on last.fm.

Thee Oh Sees - Warm Slime

Thee Oh Sees - Warm Slime (2010)


I waited too long to listen to this one and now i can't stop playing it, I think I just kept forgetting to check it out once I heard it released. So, in case you missed it, forgot about it like me, or have never even heard of this band before and are checking them out for the first time please enjoy this link I bring to you! Get it while it's hot! Great in time for summer too! I cruise around to this cd all day long. For those who have never heard before also check out the other post on this blog made about Thee Oh Sees.

Ceremony - Rohnert Park

Rohnert Park

Rohnert Park is different from any other Ceremony record you have. This is a good different. Parts of this album remind me of Black Flag, Circle Jerks, and even Fucked Up.
