Airplanes - Local Natives


Airplanes

Local Natives | MySpace Music Videos

Finally an official video for 'Airplanes'. Local Natives have been on the indie radar for quite a while with NME and music blogospheres taking notice. Their impressive debut album 'Gorilla Manor' has been all over my playlist since its release and i am equally impressed with the video they have produced here. I have also included a fan made video for airplanes which is equally impressive if a little more unofficial. Enjoy.

Newcastle Music Scene: February




After spending a long time browsing various music websites for some sort of organized gig listings for Newcastle i decided it that it might save me and the rest of you a lot of our precious time if I just wrote a blog post dedicated to the music scene in Newcastle for the coming month so here it is.

Got Nuffin - Spoon

Fast paced edge of your seat rock. reminiscent of joy division/new order + a piano.


Rad Pitt - Egyptian Hip Hop

Sombre indie chantings rather than Egyptian Hip Hop.
"What are we today enlighten me another way"

These Are Listed Buildings - Los Campesinos!

"There are listed buildings and woe betide your listed heart"
"We are but two atheists in lust, you know, we gotta make our own luck"
A Couple of brilliant lyrics in my opinion. The new Los Campesinos! is such a different approach to there fast paced manic-pop. It showcases the lyrical talent of this band in a much more authentic and natural environment.

The Right Thing To Do - Eberg (Music Video)




I thought i had heard the last from this small icelandic band after the amazing 'Inside Your Head' but i am pleasantly suprised to hear and see their epic new song and video.
Don't worry he finds a place to poop in the end.

Full Listen 'Transference' - Spoon


My favourite band named after cutlery. Can't wait for the release of Spoons 7th album and if you are still not in the 'I must have it now' phase of anticipation well it wont last long.

Go On - Basia Bulat

I think i have died and gone to acoustic heaven

Counterpoint - Delphic

'Acolyte' is almost guaranteed to make it onto everyone's favourites of 2010 list even though we are only twelve 365th's in. Impressive. 'Counterpoint' is the stand out single once you have ruled out 'Doubt' on the basis that everyone knows that song already, and i like to be different (that's DIFFERENT not difficult). Enjoy.

WTF? - Ok Go

Wicked track foshizzle?. See what i did there. Great Single. Great Video. Great Album.


WTF? - Ok Go

OK Go - WTF? (Music Video) + "Making Of"


Marina And The Diamonds - Hollywood (Acoustic)
