Girls – Morning Light

By Will | September 29, 2009

Girls debut album creativly titled “Album” is one of my favorite albums of the year. If you remember, I have loved them before their pitchfork 9.1 score. I mentioned them as a band to watch back in December, they were too damn good to ever think about letting you loyal readers down!! “Hellhole Ratrace” is [...]

Paramore – Use Somebody (Kings Of Leon Cover)

By Will | September 23, 2009

I am not a fan of Paramore at all. They annoy the hell out of me. That’s just me though, there are plenty of Paramore fans out there. I didn’t have anything else to post today so I figured I would throw in a random cover. Normally Paramore wouldn’t quite fit in on my blog. [...]

Band To Watch: Washed Out

By Will | September 22, 2009

Music that you blast on your laziest day, that Sunday where your room is a mess, your sticking to [...]
