SOD #292 – California Wives

Goddamn I am so ready for summer, and this song just makes me want it so much more. I found these guys on the interwebs a little over a year ago, and just an EP on bandcamp. This is Chi-Town’s California Wives with “Marianne” of their first major release coming out on Vagrant Records. So stoked for this album (no release date as of yet). The synths on this tune make it reminiscent of Pet Shop Boys or the Psychodelic Furs. I guarantee you these guys hit it big in 2012. Guaran-damn-tee it. Please enjoy.

SOD #290 – Cold Specks

I have posted Cold Specks before, but after hearing this track and seeing this video, I couldn’t resist posting her again. I think she just might have one of my favorite voices…ever. Please enjoy.

This is Al-Qiyamah from Montreal based producer/singer d’Eon. Nine minutes of R&B bliss that truly seems to get better as the song goes on. Please, please enjoy.

SOD #288 – Pop Winds

I guess these guys just broke up, which is a shame, because this shit is real good.

SOD #287 – Alcoholic Faith Mission

This is Danish indie/folk band Alcoholic Faith Mission with the track Running With Insanity. And if there are any questions on how legit these guys are, here is a vid of them playing the same track at Epoch Coffee in Austin at last years SXSW. These guys are good, really good.

SOD #285 – mewithoutYou

As some of you know, mewithoutYou is my favorite band of all time. It is a great time… 14 days away from the release of MWY’s 5th studio album. This is the second track they have released to the public… and after hearing these two… I don’t think I have ever been so excited that they were releasing more work. They are definitely a “love it or hate it” type band… so please, love it.
