WE'LL DO IT ADORABLE! - Now Now Every Children
who: Now Now Every Children
why: because I've never listened to them before... but the singer reminds me of a combination of Julia Styles and Mandy Moore... so I'm totally there.

VOTW - March 5, 2010
who: Person L
why: because I finally got around to listening to 2009's 'The Positives' once I saw this video. Nice face, Kenny. The facial hair doesn't make you look any less like a 12 year old, haha.
Friday Flashback - Portugal. The Man
who: Portugal. The Man
why: have been talked about all over the place lately, and you're probably sick of hearing about em. Their new release 'American Ghetto' is easily my favorite album since 'Waiter: "You Vultures!"' and you should definitely get to listening to it if you haven't. This brings us to this week's flashback - "AKA M80 the Wolf".

NEW! Thursday Night Fights - March 4, 2010
I'm liking these weekly things I've been trying to do lately... keeps me up on my shit, so here's a chance for you to settle the debate I've been having with friends and myself lately...
Last year's debut from Freelance Whales ('Weathervanes') is being rivaled in terms of incredible musicianship, performance and style by this year's debut from Local Natives ('Gorilla Manor')... and it's pretty hard for me to choose a favorite. Who would you take?
Freelance Whales - "Generator ^ 2nd Floor" Live
VS.
Local Natives - "Wide Eyes", "Airplanes" and "Stranger Things" Live

Premature Infatuation - Punk Goes Classic Rock
who: The Almost
Be sure to also check out an early, pre-production version of the song played LIVE here (Aaron on drums).
why: is one of the bands that will be on the new 'Punk Goes'... series, and I always highly anticipate these releases while they generally turn out terrible. I'm not the biggest fan of The Almost... I personally wish Aaron would have just kept making music with underOATH instead... BUT... the point is that this is a video showing The Almost's recording process of their track for the record - Tom Petty's "Free Fallin".
P.S.: Who the fuck is that playing drums?... noob. I'd rather listen to this kid.

Jaguar Love - 'Hologram Jams'
tf: unrated. 
Another band I've been told to give a chance on multiple occasions that I have literally never heard... Listen to it? Apparently for fans of The Blood Brothers.
[01.]
tf: unrated.
Remember when they put out 'Satanic Satanist' last July? One of my favorite bands ever, this is the 6th full-length they've released in 4 years and they've put out 3 EP's in between. Get on their level. Quick.
