Just off elmwood update ( Restaurant Week edition )

Its Restaurant Week here again and my day job is a cook so i feel our pain for this week. but for you lucky punters on the other side its paradise.
Since this is a music blog lets see what tasty treats have been served up in the last few weeks.

Appetizer - "Fang Island - Life coach" at this early stage could be the indie breakout artists of the year.

Entree - "DIE! DIE! DIE! - 'WE BUILT OUR OWN OPPRESSORS'" New zealand boys who are not to every ones taste but certainly mine!

Dessert - "Diamond Rings - Wait & See" What a way to end with something sweet, poppy and incredibly danceable. One of my favorite tunes so far this year.

Vitalic - Second Lives

Quite possibly the most simple music video ever made and yet it manages to disgust, sicken, and create roll on the floor hysteria cause we all no we have been in some of these situations. From the new album Flashmob.

Memoryhouse - Bonfire

Titus Andronicus - Upon Viewing Bruegel's "Landscape With the Fall of Icarus"

Street Chant - Scream Walk

CONNAN MOCKASIN - EGON HOSFORD

In my opinion the best band in New Zealand right now with this fantastic new single and hopefully a new album very soon.
