What a year for music. So many great bands made a triumphant return this year and so many new bands burned their mark into the consciousness of listeners this year as well. A steady stream of good music flooded my inbox and continues to do so. Let’s celebrate this year by recounting all the swell albums that have come our way. (more…)
Bear Cavalry are a band that I presume are from the UK. They employ a bouncy mix of traditional rock instruments with some synth and horns. Imagine all the energy of ska but much better musicianship.

Neon Indian | FOR NO ONE from FOR NO ONE on Vimeo.
Pretty cool that they can do all this stuff live.
Neon Indian -Fallout by Rhythm Circus
Wrongkong is a band that lives and works in Nürnberg, Germany, although their singer was originally born in Canada. Their first single “Crystal Clear” has a bouncy electronic meets acoustic sound with an icy vocal that cuts through the mix. It’s a bit like Neko Case fronting Junior Senior. Have I intrigued you?
Fort Fairfield – Patience (With Cosima Lamberth) from movimenta on Vimeo.
Two guys with beards from Sweden who really get into chess. Nothing wrong with that.

M+A ‘Bam’ from monotreme records on Vimeo.
Some great editing in this one. Or perhaps some superfast clones.
Black Light Dinner Party – Gold Chain from dreambear. on Vimeo.
Some laid back electro pop by Black Light Dinner Party. Kinda sounds like Frankmusik and Editors on sedatives.
I know I’m late to the party on these guys (Holy Ghost), I’ll get to listening to their full length this week.
