I could not resist this one. Edward Sharpe just might be a modern day Indiana Jones.

Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros - Kisses Over Babylon (Video)
Glad I found this in my mess of an inbox! This is part 2 of Edward Sharpe’s mini-series of 12 music videos. It’s pretty out there, but one should expect that from a band like this. Quite an impressive undertaking!

The Decade's 50 Most Important Recordings from NPR →
Not to make you feel old and all, exiting a decade, etc. I actually like that they did the list alphabetically rather than numerically.
Rock Music Goes The Way Of The Beard →
Interesting perspective from Sleater-Kinney’s guitarist Carrie Brownstein regarding the shift to softness in indie music during the late ‘00’s. Thanks Celina!

Some things in life get me pumped up, converging artists is one of those things. I mean Beck, Wilco, Liddell, Tweedy’s son, Feist?…so fun. It’s like a modern day Travelling Wilburys, I don’t mind it at all.

I am extremely happy to share this video for my song “Seed,” made by Amy Ruhl. Thank you Amy, and thanks also to Olde English Spelling Bee!
Vimeo runs a lot smoother if you let the whole video load first before viewing, so I would recommend doing that!
Did I mention I am pretty pumped for TI? →

Never Mine- Ganglians
(via chocolate bobka)
First off why can’t Black Lips & Wavves get along?…breaking bottles over faces is so silly. I feel like only boys pull this shit but then Lady Sovereign has to go & prove me wrong.
Secondly i kinda wanna freak out over Ganglians. You remember them from way back when? I am so sad & mopey that I missed them that one Sunday this...
crazy day at office so I’ll just provide another video for your viewing entertainment, I know I may seem a bit obsessed with Real Estate. That’s cause I am, no shame here. As per usual Chocolate Babka has been fueling my fire.
Laura- Girls
I do well with video stimulation, don’t you? Girls is a San Francisco (hey hey local) band made up of Christopher Owens & Chet ‘JR’ White. See a shit ton more from Fader’s Open Bar segment HERE. Although you may feel a bit uncomfortable with some extreme close ups I think I am excited to hear more from their new album, Album, coming out next week....
While you wait for others- Grizzly Bear
This is essentially what my nightmares are made of. All seemingly nice childhood items turned cryptic. And who knew that Fencing is not all fun in games? It’s not, it’s definitely a scary mask game.
Video directed by Sean Pecknold…yes you recognize that dudes name..bro to Robin & did FF videos.
