The National - "Bloodbuzz Ohio"

The best song off "high violet"

The Standard - Into the Fall

The Standard are one of those bands who just seem to slip through the cracks maybe its all the label changes it feels like every new album. After releasing two good albums in "august" and "albatross" then one flat out brilliant album in "Wire post to wire" there 5th album "swimmer" arrives panned in some circles missed by me a fan so what now. well hopefully a new album that hits more in a "Wire post to wire" style because on there day there are very few bands that are as good as the standard.

Mother Love Bone - Stardog Champion

cause its mothers day. Mother Love Bone featuring two pre fame members of Pearl jam Stone Gossard (guitar) and Jeff Ament (bass).

Hurricane Bells - "This Year"

I haven’t been moved so much by a song as this since i first heard The National. It drags you into a sense of sorrow but invokes some redemption. It has been a long year but this is my year baby.

16 Horsepower - Haw

15 years old and this song still sends chills down my spine.

The Veils - Begin Again

great video from a band i haven't paid much attention to even though they have big new zealand connections. Singer songwriter Finn Andrews although born in England grew up in NZ . His father Barry Andrews was a member of XTC , Shriekback and The League of Gentlemen.
