Leafcutter John - Seba
Typical droning indie folk, but really, the song gets going once the vocals start- "You push me out just to pull me in.. mmmm closer to you."
Lily Allen - Smile and Littlest Things
The newest blog sensation apparently. I just discovered it this past weekend though. it has that poppy talk-sing / rap type vibe with a bit of a reggae / soul beat. the lyrics are funky / amusing and the song 'Smile' makes me cackle a bit to myself. I think of this as the same as liking Annie was a couple years ago. it's the type of music that is a bit bubblegum-y at times, but you just cannot help but play it over and over again. it's okay 'cause everyone else likes it, too.
The Lovely Feathers - Mildly Decorated and Breakfast Cake
I once heard (forget where), that this band was a better replacement for The Unicorns than Islands was and I think it's true. I heard their debut 'My Best Friend Daniel' last year after downloading Fudgicle [mp3] from a link on lhb. while that album was rather good, the new one is perhaps even catchier. there are five songs from the first that reappear in a new form on the new album (Hind Hind Legs), by the way. eventually I'll buy the album. I tried to win it from i (heart) music awhile back, but didn't get it; wasn't too surprised since I jumped in a bit late. I only just remembered I didn't hear it till this past weekend! glad I remembered.
