A sim­ple fast and fun two piece band from Van­cou­ver, BC. Their first album “Post Noth­ing” runs just over 30 min­utes with the 8 tracks on the record­ing. They have two pre­vi­ous EPs “All Lies” & “Lul­laby
Death Jams”. The offi­cial genre for this band is Noise Pop which is very sim­i­lar to shoegaze.

The band uses highly effect dri­ven gui­tar with a lot of noise and feed­back. Their lyrics seem sim­ple but still have depth in the whole mean­ing. “Young Hearts Spark Fire” seems to be about finally
real­iz­ing you have grown up with the line, “We used to dream but now we worry about dying”. But undoubtably our favorite lyric is “We run the gaunt­let, let’s get to France, so we can French Kiss
some French girls.”

Weekly Mix­tape!

This song has been on an almost con­stant loop. Friendly Fires — “Paris” (Aero­plane Remix).
it needs to have a killer video like the orig­i­nal track.

Spoon tops the charts this week with their new album Trans­fer­ence.  Spoon — “Writ­ten in Reverse”

They knocked Vam­pire Week­end down from their one week old on the #1 spot. Vam­pire Week­end opened up for them at San Diego in Decem­ber.  Both “Con­tra” and “Trans­fer­ence” main­tain each bands sig­na­ture sound. Which in this day an age it seems that not only art but orig­i­nal­ity is hard.

This pro­ducer Break­bot invented a new style of music that is called some­thing like “syn­th­funk”. The Whitest Boy Alive have been pro­duc­ing noth­ing but sonic good­ness lately. Give a multi-track to Fred Falke and you have your­self some­thing to dance to. Who added such a nice touch to such a lovely Griz­zly Bear song with a creepy video and an ani­mated one.

The duo Japan­droids, I hate to say it are a “breath of fresh air” not that they aren’t fresh it’s just I don’t have a bet­ter metaphor for it. But Young Hearts Spark Fire is a great sim­ple, fresh, fast, and fun song about life and grow­ing up.
