Watch Out - Manchester Orchestra
who: Manchester Orchestra
why: posted a new video for "Shake it Out" off of this year's 'Mean Everything to Nothing'. Andy Hull does it again... but this time it's hilarious.

Attention! - The Venetia Fair
who: The Venetia Fair
why: because I think you'll like em. My first impression was the Hush Sound on drugs. While the production of their debut album, 'The Circus', is well short of perfect, this Boston quintet has crafted a chaotically catchy sound that's pretty hard to explain. But take it from me, they're good and I expect to see more from them in the future.
Rating: aight.

New Release Tuesday - November 3, 2009
who: Say Anything | We Came As Romans | Weezer
why: because it's a pretty good week for new releases.
Say Anything's self-titled has finally dropped after a few annoying delays, and I actually like it a lot. Bemis has taken his lyricism to a new level and a new place on this record and the songs are blended together in a well-crafted manner unlike in their last release 'In Defense of the Genre'.
We Came As Romans' debut release 'To Plant a Seed' is the latest and greatest from Equal Vision and it doesn't disappoint. If you liked Rise Records' The Color Morale in their debut 'We All Have Demons', you should be happy to find a resemblance in this release.
And then there's Weezer... who honestly doesn't really always have my attention unless I'm pounding out a Rock Band performance, but 'Raditude' is good. It's a guilty pleasure CD, because it's nothing fancy... but no one can right hooks like these motherfuckers. If you didn't see my previous Weezer post, they have a really different, hip-hop styled song with Lil Wayne that's probably my favorite track off the album, but a solid disc in general for sure.

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.
