Exit Music “From Silence” EP

First heard this band a few days ago and before the first song was over(“The Sea”) I was in love and wondering on how this group managed to slip by me undetected.  I immediately bought their EP From Silence at the show and played it repeatedly until my car’s battery died. Aleksa has a haunting yet captivating voice that enters your head and seizes your tympanic membrane in an albeit loving yet aggressive embrace. I love the lead track “The Sea” so much that I have literally played it 1000 times in 3 days.  Check out “The Sea” in all it’s glorious beauty below and then go buy it here. BTW Aleksa is also in actress and has been in The Sopranos and a few movies but most recently she stars as Michael Pitt’s wife in Boardwalk Empire. Yeah, she’s pretty damn talented.

Aleksa with husband Devon. So talented!!

Kowalski “Take Care, Take Flight EP”

Hey Paddy, is that a Snicker's bar in the pool?

Hailing from Bangor, Ireland is the indie electro-pop outfit Kowalski who’s sound has been described as sun kissed, infectious, muscular, and dreamy. I do agree. I feel like I’m skipping across clouds being chased by neon orange monkey’s when I listen to them. Whoa! I need to stop writing these posts after I shroom out. Ok, I’m all betters now. Dive right in and stream the EP Take Care, Take Flight below and then you tell me how it makes you feel. Shroooming is optional. Get it here on their Bandcamp page.

I said it was optional...... but isn't it tempting?.....and pretty?

Oh man I can just picture Wooderson leaning up against “Melba Toast” with these guys blaring out the speakers. White Bone Rattle is a psych rock outfit formed in 2009 from out of Maidstone/UK comprised of two pairs of brothers. Their sound is vintage 60′s-70′s rock, meaning heavy guitar coupled with sexy riffs and harmonies. If you were around in the 60′s and 70′s then these guys will take you right back and you will smile. If you weren’t then close your eyes and imagine how sweet it was. Check out the power guitars in “Seven Eves” from the EP Far Beyond The Settled Mind(2010). It is quite awesome! They have also recently released the single “When I Return” and you can grab the free download from their Bandcamp page or below and while you are there get “The Ferryman” too. Wooderson tell them why-”Alright,alright, alright. Cause it would be a lot cooler if you did!” Ready for a time warp? Then go here and then snag the EP here.
