Other bands that you should check out

Mark Linkous

feeds@kickapps.com (mjarrard) — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 14:10:59 PST

I'm sure many of you have already heard, Mark Linkous (aka Sparklehorse) took his own life. Very sad news indeed. Message board tributes are lame...but I hope many of you keep his family/friends in your thoughts/prayers/whatevers. If you're not familiar with his music...please make an effort to do so, its life changing kinda stuff...

Any fans?

Really nice debut EP they put out recently called "Old Dominion" that at times remind a lot of both The Dear Hunter and Margot.

Shameless plug..

Listen to my stuff if you have the time. Plenty of Margot influence in it to go around.

anyone know this relatively new group from Nashville, TN?

I stumbled upon a $5 used promo of their 2007 record "T.C.H.T.O.B." the other day at Cheapo and it listed some comparisons of course, 1 being Anathallo. I took the plunge and I'm pretty happy I did.

The whole thing was good. Filled with male/female vocal harmonies, xylophone, clapping, non-traditional percussion among many other avant-garde elements. But at the same time the SONGWRITING is quite good.

Maybe the most moving, the closing epic track "I and Thou."

I would suggest these guys for anyone into Anathallo, Kiss Kiss, Margot and the Nuclear So and...

Bloc Party-Intimacy

It's exceptional. The first single mercury was exceptional:

I saw Margot in Madison on their spring tour, and they played with an amazing band called Jentri Collelo.

Check them out. They are FANTASTIC.

Buying El Scorcho

Alright, I've never bought a weezer song in my life. But after listening to El Scorcho on youtube (Richard playing it) i'm going to buy the weezer version of the song. Better not let me down.

feeds@kickapps.com (hkevlar) — Sat, 31 May 2008 16:00:20 PST

The song is this commercial sounds friggin awesome but nobody can figure out who it is. People are claiming that it's "Little Jack Melody" but I emailed the guy and he said it's not him. I have to figure this out....

feeds@kickapps.com (GentlemanZissou) — Sat, 24 May 2008 00:28:34 PST

I think they might have. I know, I know... after listening to Red Album (the 8 tracks at least), it isn't the greatest. And yes... Rivers is digressing faster than George Lucas these days. Just watch... I got a huge kick out of it!
