Non-Urban Music What are you listening to RIGHT NOW? (New Rules)

[Ristol]

Oh, and Casey, that song you said you liked up there? I emailed the singer a couple of hours ago and he responded to me in twelve minutes. Things like this make me very happy.

I like this song Ristol. Question for you, do you like The Arcade Fire?

Love 'em. I freaked out when they won the Grammy! It was my inner music snob, repelled at the thought of a band I treasure getting real-world recognition. Indie points subtracted, lol. But yeah in 30 years I think they'll be seen as one of those truly epochal bands, a la The Beatles or U2.

Can't go wrong with a bit of Stone Roses.

I'm really digging Lights at the moment, she's a Canadian synthpop artist and her new album Siberia is awesome. And she's hot. And I'll probably go see her live in a couple months cos she's coming to my city.

^Ehhh, not really my type of music. It just doesn't excite me.

I didn't realize this song had a video until i just searched it.

 

[Da_Funk]

I don't like to break the rules and post another song but fuck it, I do what i want

This one goes out to you, Ristol.

^Embedding doesn't work, but yeah, that song is great. Mumford & Sons = not my cup of tea. Too derivative. (I say this fully aware that I'm posting a song that is basically The Beatles' Second Cousin, but hey, a lot of good music can be described that way.)

The name of the band is The Olivia Tremor Control.

What do you people think of this song? Ryan Adams kills me softly.
