Immortal Technique - Revolutionary Vol 2


Immortal Technique is a popular rapper, political activist and quite often a combination of the two. He mixes his Harlem story with revolutionary ideals to become one of the most political rappers that you will ever see. I wonder if he hates Bush....

Phideaux Xavier -- Doomsday Afternoon


Phideaux Xavier is an american TV director that also makes pretty kickass music. His style is self described as "psychedelic progressive gothic rock", and sounds somewhat similar to that of the great Pink Floyd. Doomsday Afternoon is one of his better albums, the melodies are like delicious ice cream for the ears and the lyrics(when present) are quite simply astounding.

Utica - Algal Bloom


Utica is a band I found out from my brother the summer before my freshman year in high school. All I know is that they are pretty awesome and that they have a myspace that they don't use anymore. They are pretty local to me, so nobody you know is really going to have heard of them.

Oh and Siriustar, we only missed 1 day so this should cover up our tracks. I'm a bit sick so sorry for that.

Deerhunter - Cryptograms


Well, there's some good news and some bad news.

The good news is, you get an album today, and it's a pretty good 'um. The bad news is since nobody's posted in a couple days, I had to find a quick link. I uploaded Cryptograms for a friend, so that's what you get: the second album by the quirky Atlanta "ambient punk" quintet, critically acclaimed by Pitchfork, etc. It's a bit polarizing at some points but, as many indie kids will attest, it's an enthralling listen (full of personal demons, loneliness, and death. Fun times!) For those of you who haven't heard it yet, this comes recommended.

EDIT: Insert shit comment about two "Deer_" bands being posted relatively close to one another.

Tally Hall - Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum


Tally Hall is an indie rock band from Ann Harbor, Michigan famous for their trademark ties. Gaining popularity through their popular music video for Banana Man, they have become an internet sensation through the internet site Albino Blacksheep. They have recently gained a record deal with Atlantic Records and are re-releasing the album on April 1st.

Download the Quack! Media record label version and be sure to buy the Atlantic Records re-release on April 1st which has the entire album touched up to perfection(I'm not sure if it's possible to make this album better, though)

Cut Copy - In Ghost Colours

Daft Punk seem to have done wonders to the Australian techno industry. This is the second techno artist I promised a few weeks back. The first released track, Hearts on Fire was played at the Daft Punk tour, and it was only after further investigating the song's source that I discovered this. This is their second album and it's fanbase has been further strengthened by a considerable amount of airtime on one of only two good Perth radio stations, Triple J.

Andrew Lloyd Webber & Tim Rice - Jesus Christ Superstar


The classic 1970 rock opera, (colorfully) detailing the relationships between Jesus, Judas Iscariot, and Mary Magdalene. It's such a kickin' piece of musical history that it's claiming our Easter slot AND the 50th post. Hooray, Jesus!

Deerhoof - Reveille


I like it, I like it a lot. Very fun, refreshing album, and an excellent representation of Deerhoof doing what they do best. Satomi's childlike vocals really add a sense of playful pop sensibility to the otherwise discordant, experimental song structures. Enjoy.
