Soldout

Somehow Soldout remains under appreciated, even in the midst of this "indie sleaze revival," or whatever they're calling it. 94 and For Your Next Girlfriend are a couple of my favs

The Shins - Chutes Too Narrow

Forget "Indie Sleaze"-revival...when are we getting plain old "Indie" revival? When I think of "indie" music, I think of bands like The Shins, Death Cab, Arcade Fire, and like Rilo Kiley or something lol. For me, this was my entrance to it all! I don't think I would be who I am now if my snapback-wearing beiber-bang-rocking hockey-playing self didn't hear "New Slang" at a very impressionable point in my life. Until recently I thought I was an Oh, Inverted World guy but it turns out I may actually be a Chutes Too Narrow guy. I still love that album of course, but I think songs like "So Says I" and "Kissing The Lipless" distill their specific style of bright rock music & James Mercer's vocal delivery better than the others.

Airiel - in your room

Sharing another favourite. Dreampop/Shoegaze by this amazing band from Chicago. This track is about 9 minutes long and yet it doesn’t feel enough. I’m totally in love with it and think it is quite lofty and romantic.

Tim Linghaus - drive me somewhere nice

6 years to today, my dad passed away. Tim Linghaus’ album Memory Sketches helped me process my grief. Sharing this here for everyone else to discover.
