Ravishers: Cheating Death, Breathe
Indie/Rock/Folk/PopMyspace
Website (3 free downloads from upcoming debut album)
It's always great when an album instantly becomes the soundtrack for a short memory film. Long ago, when driving meant sitting in the backseat of my Mom's car. We took a trip to Washington from California. The memory that always strikes me first was driving the coast of Oregon listening to Semisonic's 'Feeling Strangely Fine' and Five For Fighting's 'American Town'. I told myself from then on, Oregon would be my home at some point. Now, thanks to Ravishers, I lower my head in regret that I have yet to do so. Tonight, I must miss out on their album release show. On the lighter side, I was lucky enough to get a early copy. Now, I suppose the norm would be to tell you how it sounds like Marching Band sleeping around with Darwin Deez, while Matt Hires is at work. Or I can make even less sense and say its charisma shines a light on anyone with a broken heart, but I won't. I will just say I think it's really good and you may wanna check it out :) If I'm not mistaken, available May 10th.
Oh wait, almost forgot. How about an extra free track while we wait? Yeah, they thought we might like that. Let me get it.

The Bell: The Best Part Isn't Over
Website
I don't know what it is, but I love electro pop. It has really developed in the past few years, but the electro solo in "I Think We're Alone Now" has always been an favorite of mine. Tonight I had the chance hear The Bells new album 'Great Heat' and it had me almost singing "I'm alone now..." Now, I know that's not exactly what you want to say to an all male group, but I wouldn't mind. (And) Believe me, nothing can be a better compliment from me. Of course it's far from Tiffany, let's be real, I go way off trail sometimes. It's more The Faint meets The Limousines. Better (or worst) put, it's The Faint that you'd shake your hips to. As the album loops for the second time, 'You Fell Behind' and 'Dope Makes You' aids me in finishing this ranting post, and I've never enjoyed writing more. Expect "Great Heat' April 12.

A little bird told me they provided an alternate means of download for those worthy. Either way, a great release of jams years in the making.

Panic At The Disco: Anticipated
Yesterday, Panic At The Disco streamed their upcoming album via Facebook. This album is featuring what's left of Panic, Brandon and Spencer. Mostly being Brandon, who does almost everything on it. I was not a fan of their Pretty.Odd album, thought it was horrible. Now that they rid of Ryan, who can't sing in key to save his life, this album takes a U-turn and is heading back to the genre they should be. This is definitely powerpop again, and I love it. Leave the indie to the indie artist. Vices and Virtues reminds me of Jimmy Eat World's Chase This Light, It's not their roots, but a matured version. I can't wait to hear it in higher quality.

Jordan Galland: Football, Strippers, and Vampires
Recently I've been lucky enough to preview Jordan Galland new album Search Party, releasing April 20. I certainly enjoyed his debut album Airbrush (2008), but Search Party is in a new class. The Title song will have you dancing around the room with puckered lips, acting as if your playing a trumpet (or maybe I'm just a little weird). The nice thing about this release is the generation's it covers, teens will be having their Cd's stolen by their parents and vice-versa. A nice mix of almost all variations of pop, jazz, and rock. Search Party will certainly be in any worthy playlist's long side new and upcoming release's such as Courteeners, Frightened Rabbit, and Broadcast 2000.Top Song pick: Can't Say Why
