MUSIC, MAN. So, there is phenomenal, novelty music coming to a car, ipod, and (hopefully) concert speaker near you.
1. First of all, Weekend of the Vampires. And I'm not fucking talking about that New Moon bullshit. I am speaking of the elastic, spiraling sound that comes from The Ezra Koenig and Co. I have only listened to "Cousins" and "Horchata" from their much-anticipated sophomore album "Contra," however, they're fucking ace. And the music video for "Cousins"- shitfuck.
2. Next-> Mister Jack White. Hello. Hello. Helllllllllllo. I've missed you. Don't know much about this except that they will be recording new shit at the end of 2009 and a hopelessly-needed new album should be the product of White's delicious fruit.
3. Marina and the Diamonds- Brilliant. Lyrics like, "Ten silver spoons coming after me, one life with one dream on repeat." Even shooting up a Star Wars' adage into the pulsing, ignorant vein of pure, harmonic bliss "Do or do not, there is no try." YESS. The result? Tori Amos? Nah. Regina Spektor? No. The Wales native is not naiive to the note-bursting, key-topping music of those populars mentioned above. Nothing like it. What's it like? It's chaos, it's watermelons- IT'S EVERYTHING.
