Premature Infatuation - Angels and Airwaves

who: Angels and Airwaves
why: are in the process of recording an entire film score for the soon to be released movie titled 'Love'. The movie is set to be released in the Spring of next year, and the trailer has just officially been released (below). I'm not positive on many of the specific details, but a brief synopsis entails an astronaut named Lee Miller who becomes stranded on the International Space Station and struggles to maintain his sanity and life. I'm mostly looking forward to seeing whether or not director William Eubank made a good decision in giving Angels and Airwaves the creative ability to craft the soundtrack.

Eargasm - Freelance Whales

who: Freelance Whales
why: because their DEBUT release 'Weathervanes' is the best thing I've heard this year since Manchester Orchestra's 'Mean Everything to Nothing'... and that's based on the first listen alone. These guys are musicians. Ever-changing vocal melodies are harmonized with a background choir that you have to squint your ears to hear over the remarkable instrumentation. This is a chill CD... go take a little nap and put on your earphones and just relax - You absolutely need to hear this album. I can't imagine the things to come once they get signed and produce properly funded records... Watch out.

rating: absolutely.
