Bundle Up - B.o.B.

who: Tyler Ward ft. Eppic
why: YouTubers, ftw. This video's a little bit overproduced, but still awesome.

WE'LL DO IT ACOUSTIC! - The Dangerous Summer

who: The Dangerous Summer
why: because I haven't posted anything in awhile... been kinda busy. This is the first thing I've seen in some time I felt was worth posting. If you don't know The Dangerous Summer... think of a more layered and technical version of The Starting Line. I like em.

Attention! - Los Campesinos!

who: Los Campesinos!
why: because they're from the U.K. and say things like "fanks" when they mean "thanks"... No, in all seriousness these guys have taken over my ears lately. I just can't get enough.

If you watch/listen to the video/song below and aren't impressed, give the album a few listens anyway, it's a grower fashower. I had the same "ehh... whatever" impressions when I first checked them out a while back - didn't really get the interest - but I'm all over it now.

You're lookin at a new #1 for 2010.

VOTW - April 24, 2010

who: Our Last Night
why: because it seems like really young, extremely talented metalcore bands are popping up left and right, and OLN's 2010 release ' We Will All Evolve' is goooood.

Attention! - Titus Andronicus

who: Titus Andronicus
why: because they've been around since 2005, but they're new to me. I've just run through my first listen of this year's release 'The Monitor', and I can already tell it's going to grow on me. Think Desaparecidos meets Japandroids meets Silversun Pickups... or something like that. This album, inspired by the puzzling combination of the Civil War and a broken heart, is already on its way to making a run for album of the year in my book.

tf: absolutely.


WE'LL DO IT FOR THE KIDS!

who: Beach House and Fang Island
why: keep em off the street with music. God knows we don't need more kindergarteners smoking pots.

VOTW - April 9, 2010

who: Freelance Whales
why: are the shit. I was really pumped when I heard they made a video for this song ("Generator ^ 2nd Floor"). It's one of the best singles I've heard in a long time - definitely my choice for last year's song of the year (maybe tied with Manchester Orchestra's "I Can Feel a Hot One")... but either way check out the new vid.


WE'LL DO IT ACOUSTIC!
Suck it Dex, this is a pretty solid live version.

Watch Out - Letting Up

who: Letting Up Despite Great Faults
why: because I'm digging the whole shoegaze, electrically-buzzy genre lately and these guys do it best. This WAS going to be tomorrow's video of the week, but it got replaced... which means you're in for a treat tomorrow. With that said, this video is adorable.

Watch Out - Circa Survive

Premature Infatuation - Dinner for Schmucks

who: Steve Carell, Paul Rudd, Zach Galifianakis

Watch Out - The Devil Wears Prada

who: The Devil Wears Prada
why: have released a video for one of my favorite song titles of all time - "Assistant to the Regional Manager" off of their 2009 release 'With Roots Above and Branches Below'. This video reminds me a lot of Converge's recent video for "Axe to Fall" except a lot less creepy.

Watch Out - A Day to Remember

who: A Day to Remember
why: have been taking a lot of heat on the interwebs lately... and I don't know why. People keep trying to make comparisons to Four Year Strong, but I know for a fact they don't give a shit what you think they sound like if you're drinking that gay-torade (it's funny cuz they're from Florida)... Also how has no one else ever made that joke? These dudes have fun playing the music they make, and if you've seen them live you'll understand why their fans love them so much. But anyways, I'm done ranting. Check out their new video for "I'm Made of Wax Larry, What Are You Made Of?" off of last year's 'Homesick'.

Attention! - Where the Ocean Meets the Sky

who: Where the Ocean Meets the Sky
why: because their debut EP 'Sexy!' was released practically unnoticed last year, and it was a shame because it's awesome. A lot of people complain that these genres are overpopulated with bad bands trying to get big through myspace, and they're probably right, but but these guys are an exception to the rule. Someone needs to sign them quick.
