SOTD: Walk Away

I'm probably the laziest poster of music on this blog even though I discover new tunes that I absolutely love almost daily. Just so you know, music for me is usually more about the tune itself and very little about the lyrics and even less about the visuals. So instead of writing some amazing history or give you a verbal telling of why I love what I love, I won't (at least not most of the time) and from today onwards, I will just give you my Song Of The Day. Woooo happy days!

My song of the day:

Band: Luminaires
Song: Walk Away
Genre: Indie-Electro Pop with a hint of Dub (yes, dubstep!)



Happy Tuesday! Boom!

Gold

Sometimes... just sometimes when your iTunes playlist is on shuffle... you discover Gold. just sometimes you know...



Band: Wake! Owl

Vocal Few

And so, while browsing around and looking for new music , i saw a photo of a guy and a girl, and thought, what a handsome face and didn't register in my brain who it was.

And the moment i click play on their music and heard his voice, instantly i thought, Matt MacDonald of The Classic Crime!

If you didn't know already, i love Matt MacDonald's voice!

This is his latest project with his wife! So exciting!

My Dead Air

Dan Ballard, who plays the guitar in 'Until June' released his first ep, Burn A Quiet Place Down under the name of 'My Dead Air' as his solo project.

Parachute - The Way It Was

Who's in the mood for some pop rock? If you are, press PLAY.

At the end of the day, my personal fav is Philadelphia. If you take time to listen to their songs, you'll notice that it's like listening to a story. It's unique how one can spin a tale with a song.

Anberlin - Dark Is the Way, Light Is a Place

My memory may not stretch too long, but I can't recall other rock bands that came across me before Anberlin that has a way with their words in their songs. Doubling up with their melodies, Anberlin packs a punch! Before I know it, my hands start thumping to the beat of the song. It's nice to be able to still listen to their music as the years pass by. They are one that I will never stop listening to.

Leagues

Remember Tyler Burkum from Audio Adrenaline? Well, this is the latest band that he's in.

I cannot get enough of them...so good. Can't wait for their full length album.
There's some funk, some pop, some rock somewhere in their sound.

Here's 3 of their songs from their first ep.
Make sure you listen closely to all three of these songs.



Leagues is definitely one to look out for.

Love!

The Graduate

Alas, it's time to say farewell.
These guys are great and it's a little hard to see them go on an indefinite hiatus..but oh well, i wish them all the best in their future undertakings!


The Graduate - Only Every Time(2010)

So if you've guess the answer to the hidden track, kudos to you!
It's Glass to Arson!

Guess The Song from Anberlin!

I was going through my song list from the last 5-7 years and i came across this track by Anberlin.
Can you guess the song in the HIDDEN TRACK? NO CHEATING! if you must, go through all your Anberlin songs :) happy guessing!


On another note, i think that the song Dance, Dance Christa Paffgen is amazing and so are the rest of the songs!

Anberlin is Amazing!

These songs are all jumbled up from Anberlin's previous albums.

Good Old War

What will be my story now?
Good Old War makes me want to go picnic, take a stroll on the beach,
lay under a huge tree reading books all day whilst listening to them.

ok, well that's just my imagination.

listening to some of their songs with such sweet lyrics makes me feel so very amused*

i really like these guys.
Their style of music is Acoustic, Folk Rock, Pop! what more could i ask for?

Freelance Whales

Me likes these Freelance Whales very much! I like whales too!(the gentle giants of the ocean)

They got me in the first 5 second of listening to them with the one earphone I had cos was sharing with Juls. They were playing on his Iphone la. Couldn't get them out of my head ever since then!

Me likes them many much. Me is their biggest fan.

I love they way they sound so organic but at the same time have so many new experimental sounds in their music. Which reminds me of another band called The Octopus Project. Hmmm but that's a different post! :)

Alrighty listen for yourself and decide if you likey or not!

the last one sounds a little raw but its so cool!

Also must check out Ghosting and The Great Estates.

So awesome!

Yay I posted ady! :P

Emery - We Do What We Want

it's been too long since i last listened to Emery and on the 29th march 2011, i decided to check out Emery's music and their lastest album so happened was released on that day.

if screamo-rock-alternative music is your muse, then this album is for you.
if you don't like listening to screamo-rock music, then give this album a listen a couple of times and it will surely open up your ears to an entire new music world!

well not all the songs in this album is screamo. you can listen to i never got to see the west coast and fix me.

Emery - The Curse Of Perfect Days
Rock / Screamo / Alternative

here's a sneak peak of what was created while listening to Emery

Jarle Bernhoft

Rapidly becoming the talk about the town.

Very sweet/classy tunes by this guy from Norway

Apart from his solo stuff where he works with

A main looper, 2 guitars, his voice and a couple of pedals and nick nacks..

He is also a pretty good composer.

But his solo work is really what caught my eye(ear??)

Give him a listen (:

Jarle Bernhoft - 1: Man 2:Band

http://www.myspace.com/jarlebernhoft

Jarle Berhoft - Fly away
(this is just plain sexy)

Jarle Bernhoft - C'mon talk

I think "C'mon talk" is part of his new upcoming album called choices..

Or something like that..

But anyway. Good stuff.

Filter - Title Of Record (1999)

So yesterday, when my sisters were playing BandHero, they came across this particular song and said, 'Mandy, remember this song? your favourite song?' and I didn't get the tune at first, but when i heard the music and words COULD YOU TAKE MY PICTURE, my eyes went wide open and i was so excited! The last time i heard it was at least 5 years ago, it's crazy! I totally forgot that this awesome song existed.

Filter - Title Of Record
Hardrock / Alternative
Press play to listen to the track!


Filter - Take a picture
Well anyways, to my surprise the band is still alive!

Don't you think that year 1990's has the best songs ever?
