Oh Gawd....I heart Thumper.

Song Of The Day :)

So today's song is............
    Wu Lyf - We Bros

So...I had heard about Wu Lyf in Q and NME magazine...and at first, I thought, whats all the fuss? They're not even that good.
This song, changed and blew....my mind.
6 minutes and 27 seconds of just pure unique-ness. The driving drums, the uplifting guitar sound, the...'quirky sounding' vocals.
I particulary love the;
                                            
 'We bros you lost man!
 We bros so long!
Put away your guns man!
And sing this song!'                part :)

Yup...........this is definately song of the day. And possibly week.

Song of the day :)

Ok, so today's Song Of The Day is ....................
     Berlin - Is Tropical :) from their album Native To.
 Reminds me of a slower, more relaxing MGMT ;) It's driving beat layered with cute keyboard and synth sounds is Synth-pop indie GOLD ;)
So far, they have little views on youtube, but I'm on a mission to get them more known ;)
   Here's a link : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7aJzHylt-Qk

They are also on iTunes for the handful of people left who actually BUY their music. (tut tut, illegal downloaders :P)

Blog Beginnings :)

Well, after one hassle-full, hair-pulling sham of a struggle, I have finally made my blog :)
      
I've always appealed to the idea of having a blog, somewhere to spill all my random thoughts and such :)
          I'll mostly blog about music, fashion and art as these are what interest me (:

Hope you enjoy my blog,
