Future Islands - Wave Like Home

I'm not totally sure why, but this is one of my favorite albums ever. It has some of the catchiest songs ever written, great lyrics, and very interesting musical parts. Their singer's voice is almost hypnotizing, scratchy and raw sounding but somehow very comforting. I saw them opening for Dan Deacon about a year and a half ago and I was blown away by their set. This album has a really great flow as well, it should be listened to beginning to end over and over again.

Here it is, old friend.

Vampire Weekend - Contra

Vampire Weekend is a much esteemed band that gave us one of the best summer albums in 2008 going on extensive touring, leaving fans wondering when a new album would come out. Well, here it is, coming out January 12th, be sure to pick it up. It's definitely weird to hear a new album after 2 years, but it's a refreshment that Vampire Weekend never fails to bring.

Mountain Asleep - 2009 Tour Demo

Mountain Asleep is one of my favorite bands. Their first release "Hello Anxious" is excellent and you can get it at If You Make It. This is their tour demo and it only has one new song on it, but the songs are all recorded much nicer than in their full length. The band writes amazing poetry to accompany the off beats and complexity of their music. If you ever get a chance to catch this band live I highly recommend not missing it, they play a badass Refused cover song as well.

Snowing - Fuck Your Emotional Bullshit Demo

A five-song EP from a Lehigh Valley, PA band pumping out some seriously rad punk/emo that won't disappoint. These guys haven't been a band for very long, but are already gaining momentum and I can't say I haven't seen it coming. This is a well-recorded demo, but it's too bad it's only a demo. It will leave you wanting more, for sure. There's a lot of raw energy bleeding out of my speakers whenever these guys are blasting. I'm just surprised they haven't made their way over to this blog yet.

Starflyer 59 - Americana

Starflyer 59 is an amazing band. Jason Martin is an amazing musician. Americana is an amazing album. This album is the Starflyer 59 that comes to mind when I think of Starflyer. The guitars roared with some of the heaviest and best used distortion on any Starflyer release. Jason's voice was just as quiet and haunting on this album as it was on Gold. The songs crafted for this release are some of the best, not always the most memorable, but amazing songs. If the first three songs don't blow your mind then I don't know what will

Spires/1994 - Split

Some good punk/hardcore/screamo from Spires and 1994 in the form of a split. Kinda math rock, kinda post hardcore. If you like anything from these genres, try it out.

Girl Talk - Night Ripper

Gregg Gillis turns mashup into a reputable genre making it mainstream using unheard of amount of layers. Going by Girl Talk, this one man party brings no instruments to his concerts, just his laptop. He uses obscure samples from all genres, but manages to mesh them together flawlessly. By the way, all links of 2010 by me will have a sample track now and a link to buy the album so it's now easier to "try before you buy".

Atom and His Package - Redifining Music

Atom (or Adam Goren) and his Package (or his guitar/sequencer combo) is synth punk awesomeness. If you like Math The Band, you will definitely enjoy this album. Danceable, hummable, and singable, are all apt names for one of the best synth punk albums around. Also, how can you not like a guy who has a song called "If You Own The Washington Redskins, You're A Cock" (listen to the lyrics, good stuff). Now a Physics teacher at a school in Pennsylvania, Atom(Adam) doesn't release any more albums under the AaHP moniker, but he is still kicking around in a band called Armalite if you are interested.
