Eyes on Obscure Bands and Musical Artists (and the White House Beer Summit) Week Six:

[Rye]

Three new bands, three new bands. Send me more bands, send me more bands.


Ane Brune -

Only just discovered her today. She's a Norwegian Singer-Songwriter. Her music is really haunting and gorgeous. She's a fairly new musician - she only just took up the guitar in her early twenties.

To Let Myself Go - (This sounds a bit Latin infused to me, for some reason.)

Temporary Drive (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eUSKrZ6jfIw)

Big in Japan (cover) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iIiRXQTsWTo)

This Voice (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LKg2U_PVvoc&feature=related)

Her vibrato gives me goosebumps.



Blonde Redhead -

You should (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KTziEYjkCAY)
feature (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kISlpoSc1oE) this band. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4LHGMWHzc4c)


This World Fair -

YouTube - This World Fair "Don't Make Me Wait" from Disturbia (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p_23__HEqkk) -

Trying to get to all of the submissions that I've missed. If you sent something in and I've skipped it, resend it to me if you can, because I've gotten a lot of PMs lately and I'm a bit unorganized.

Enjoy!

[Madame Adequate]

I'm not particularly engaged by any of these people. Blonde Redhead's Dr. Strangeluv isn't bad for the most part, but otherwise I dislike them. This World Fair are passable but are doing absolutely nothing I haven't heard before. I can barely even stand to sit through all of an Ane Brune song because she bores me so terribly xD

Not my week for OBAMA, I'm afraid!

[Breine]

I liked Blonde Redhead. The singer has an interesting voice, and the music's neat too. I think I'll listen to them some more.

Ane Brun's alright. She has a nice voice.

[Rye]

Haha, yeah, I guess after last week's OBAMA, anything after is gonna pale in comparison. Do send in some stuff you like though, Hux. ;)

I'm not very surprised you dislike Brune, though. I'm always sending this same style of music to you because it's the single most enchanting sound & style to me, and you're like meh. Different strokes!

[daggertrepe]

Blonde Redhead is delish.

[Breine]

Oh gawd, I just got the title joke as well xD So embarrassing!


..anyway, Breine's brain dysfunctionality aside, Rye - I might be sending you some new stuff soon.

[Rantz]

It's Ane Brun, not Brune! xD Checking out the others later.

[Markus. D]

Blonde Redhead's song was catchy.

[Moon Rabbits]

BRH FTW!

Everything I suggested is new (except In Particular), and therefore easy to find on youtube. Their older stuff is not dreampop, either ... its weird no wave crap that pretty much rocks. I loooooove this band. They have male vocals too, just not in any of those songs.

edit: Their album Fake Can Be Just As Good is pretty much the best thing ever released in music ever ever.

[Rye]

Okay! Gonna do this again later. Sorry for the delay. ;)
