OVERRATED:

i decided to buy merriweather post pavillion because i'd been hearing so much hyperbolic praise, and still, my sentiments are...


1. NOT AS GOOD AS FEELS
2. NOT THE SECOND COMING OF JESUS
3. NOT ONE OF THE BEST INDIE ALBUMS EVER
4. NOT AS GOOD AS VECKATIMEST. SORRY.

this is a sweet summer jam though:
SUMMERTIME CLOTHES --- ANIMAL COLLECTIVE

PRACTICIN FOR FRENCH AP

ce qui j'adore a ce moment-ci, c'est cette chanson par Passion Pit...



on doit ecouter ici a pretty much amazing parce qu'il n'y a pas une mp3 aujourd'hui (il n'y a pas une albume!). mais c'est delicieux; je crois que vous l'aimez.

FOLDS IN YOUR HANDS --- PASSION PIT.

je pense que cette albume sera tres beau. je suis tres agitee! j'espere que vous l'aimez.



(ca francais-la, ce n'est pas probablement tres bon. desolee!)

LIKE THE CIRCLE OF FIFTHS

"meaningful" picture

guys, it is imperative that you download this.

OSAKA LOOP LINE --- DISCOVERY.
this remastered version is giving orange shirt a run for its money as "the most awesome thing ever." really crisp synth, nice clear vocals, best use of autotune since ever...

on the subject, i wrote a review of this for pma, here.

NEW PASSION PIT

MOTH'S WINGS --- PASSION PIT

glorious and triumphant synth. this guy's voice is one of my new favorites. enjoy it

MALUCA

this girl knows what she's doing, i think
LISTEN TO "EL TIGERASO"

I'M WALKIN PAST UR HOUSE

i think this picture has a lot of meaning

listen guys, blog world just found out about discovery thanks to this illuminating stereogum post. i hope you guys are respecting the fact that if you read this blog you have been onto discovery since JUNE.

YOU ARE WELCOME.

anyway, said post has mastered copies of the two killer songs discovery has recorded, and wes miles' twitter is giving me some hope for the future.

lazy? okay.
ORANGE SHIRT --- DISCOVERY

ALL HANDS AND THE COOK

as some of you might know, my friend anthony and i went to see the walkmen last thursday, april 16. they were incredible. in the middle of their set they played one song that blew me away, and i just figured out what it was and want to share it with you because it will blow your mind too:

ALL HANDS AND THE COOK --- THE WALKMEN

in the end of this song, hamilton held one "note" (by which i mean he just yelled one word) for at least thirty seconds. it was insane. all of us in the audience were screaming and cheering expecting him to stop, but he just did not stop.

if you are not convinced, youtube does more justice than i ever could with words.
