I rarely find new music these days. I'll blame it on time and general lameness. But here's two new (to me) bands that are worthy of spreading the word on.
Midlake: "Head Home". My pal Jeff turned me on these guys. Pure 70s smoothness. No one does vocal harmonies like this anymore. Their album, The Trials of Van Occupanther is an absolute gem.
MGMT: "Time to Pretend". Could this be the Summer 2008 Anthem™? It'd probably need different lyrics. But regardless, this is one catchy tune, with an ABBA-esque quality (again, vocal harmonies) that's damn infectious.
What are you listening to these days?
