You listen to haim? I ♥ Haim!

I've been following them for over a year. I wrote about them back in April 2012, http://www.shinyidol.com/2012/04/new-music-tuesday-haim/ Girls with guitars kill me and their songs are pretty great.

 

[The Artful Dodger]

I've been listening to this song alot lately:
Drive-By Truckers - I Do Believe

And this album:
Matt Berry's Kill The Wolf

MIA - Bad Girls.

 

[Mifune]

Big Star - Ballad of El Goodo
One of the most beautiful songs ever written. This is a collection of alternate takes of great songs from the band that simply did not put out enough music. Oh and RIP Alex.

Windhand - s/t
Doomy, sludgy greatness.

Also digging this new Okkervil River tune.

[ThanksVision]

So I've been thinking about taking a page from the movie thread and focusing on one artist every month or so. Maybe listen to an artist's discography one album per day for a week or however many albums they have. I think it would boost participation in general and it seems like a fun way to delve into an artist you've never heard before. What do you guys think?

[FYC]

https://play.spotify.com/album/4ZcYeWOvZJIHyjeRx5eD1Z

[walkmetothelake]

Sombear - Love You In The Dark

Dessa - Parts Of Speech

Jimmy Eat World - Clarity

 

[Fjordson]

Minks - Tides End

Really loving this album. Pretty different from their debut, more straightforward pop music, not as much of the post-punk influence now, but it's still great.

Also been listening to the AlunaGeorge album. Good stuff as well.

 

[Persona7]

rap about neogaf https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=od-QZsOFUEw

 

[OneEightZero]

Me Want It (But Me Wait)

 

[Randolph Freelander]

I "discovered" (succumbed to an Amazon.com marketing email) Lindsey Stirling's self-titled album.

Violin mixed with some electronic grooves. A little dance, a little dubstep. Reminiscent of the string quartet Bond, but a bit more of an edge.

Crystallize
Moon Trance
Elements

 

[Dog food is delicious]

Wow, I did not expect to see Ra mentioned on Gaf.

One of my favorite bands.

 

[The Artful Dodger]

This is an old song from the 90s Swing Revival...(Haha makes me feel old to refer to it that way). This was probably one of the better bands that was a part of it. Enjoy.

8 1/2 Souvenirs - Io non lo visto

 

[killertofu]

The Head and the Heart - "Shake"


If you like Mumford and Sons, you'll like this band. They're amazing live.

Empress Of

Hat Trick

Barn Board Fire

Translator's Clos Part II

So delicious.

I can't believe I didn't discover Delain up until 2 months ago via Spotify.
That voice. Their last 3 albums are all really gorgeous, their first... can't really get into it.

Delain - We are the Others (Symphonic Metal)
