uTunes.

It's Fall 2008 and there are some albums that I'm highly anticipating that should be coming out within the next six months. Some may be more of a surprise than others.




First off is the next album by As Cities Burn. They are about three weeks away from finishing the album and I just can't wait. T.J. is still gone so expect more of what you heard with Come Now Sleep. Progressive rock stuff whatever genre at its finest. No joke. I didn't feel like I had to mention Christian. But I just did.



Next is the album in the making of Alison Sudol, better known as A Fine Frenzy. Classic piano pop from a beautiful redhead. This isn't any Sara Bareilles stuff, though I love her too, Alison's music comes with..."thrusting emotion?" It's good, whatever. Check check check the cadence yo.




Next is Mew. They're about to release something right? Their last album came out in 2005! Good thing I wasn't with them since their birth or else I'd be in some serious withdrawal. I still need to get their debut album. Anyways, this TBA album with 15 tracks in consideration should be out...eventually.

Finally, there's E-603. According to his myspace a few months ago, "NEW ALBUM OUT JULY!" According to his myspace in July, "NEW ALBUM OUT AUGUST!" According to his myspace now, "NEW ALBUM OUT SOON!" When will it all end?! That's the thing with mashup technicians, more music comes out they gotsta mash up.

I guess EASTER EGG will have to do for now. He sent me a link to his new album just now, check itzz.

Also, D.C. Kingston. New Song, "Number Six" on his myspace.

Mewthree.


There's nothing like reclining back on a long trip home in a car listening to "pretentious art rock" and closing your eyes to look around at all of the beautiful, warm colors as the sun rays hit your eye lids (hopefully you are not the one driving). The video above is a band called Mew, performing the song Special from their latest CD.  Mew is a Danish band consisting of three guys who look alike and have names with characters that I don't know how to create on my computer. The equivalent to the null sign in math. Anyways, whenever I return home from college, I like to choose a band to listen to on the way back. Old school. No skipping around the cd or putting the iPod on random. Just like popping in a cassette and singing along. Well this time guess what band I chose. Yea! Color Me Badd. How'd you guess? But still, Mew is amazing to listen to especially if you have a good imagination. Why? I don't know really, you just will. They are a dreamlike, prog, post-rock band with a vocalist. Imagine a toned down Anthony Green. This band is just so infectiously catchy. Although from what I've noticed it is not for everybody. But if you like music, definitely check these dudes out. 

In conclusion:
Mew is good.
CD's killed music.
