Copy Haho - Bred For Skills & Magic

Copy Haho is a alternative band from Scotland ready to warm your heart and then rock it out. Their five-track EP, Bred For Skills & Magic is on the label Big Scary Monsters, and the music is ace. Reminiscent of Pavement, and ligers, who are bred for their skills in magic (Psst-I'm trying to make a funny). Anyways, the EP is the only release that I know of, so enjoy it and hope for more from...Copy Haho

Mew - No More Stories Are Told Today, I'm Sorry, They Washed Away

I'm afraid I'm extremely poor, I actually don't even have one dollar. I would love to be able to sell some t-shirts with album covers on them for profit, but unfortunately America has all these 'copyright laws' and nonsense. It's a damn shame, because some of these covers would look magnificent on a solid color tee, and these indie bands are well...indie, so they don't market themselves at all. Perhaps if I can find some other way for my dear readers to proclaim their musical dominance over others I'll post it up, but for now I'll wallow in my pity. This is economy is brutal my friends.

In the meantime, enjoy some Mew. They're Danish, and refer to themselves as "pretentious art rock", so it's right on the money for what most hipsters are listening to. If I had to describe the sound, I would say indie with a dash of electronica and prog thrown in some of the tracks. Good stuff, doesn't exactly jump out of the crowd as far as uniqueness and re-listenability (not a real word obviously) but they are a solid band. Mew also wins the award for "Longest Album Title" in my library.

Dutch Uncles - S/T

The Dutch Uncles are a very interesting band. They just have such a unique sound, they don't really come close to resembling any other group. Classified as 'alternative/jazz', I think of Dutch Uncles as Indie Rock but with greater technical proficiency of the instruments and a generally tighter focus on the structure of the song. There is a very relaxed, confident feel to the tracks and it's quite unique. Dutch Uncles are a great band, give them a listen.

Death From Above 1979 - You're a Woman, I'm a Machine

Abrasive and upbeat, Death from Above 1979 is a now split-up 'dance-punk' duo from Toronto, Canada. The beats are solid and enjoyable, the riffs hook you almost immediately, and the vocals are not bad. On several songs the singer's voice tends to grate against the nerves, but that's mostly because I'm just not a big fan of high-pitched, distorted voice. If you go into a lower register, hey it's fine with me, but once you start screaming, yikes.
I imagine that this is the band that most of those stupid 'hardcore' scene bands wish they were. I hesitate to say that last statement, because I'm sure I'll get hate for implying that DFA1979 is hardcore, but in the area where I live all of our 'hardcore' bands pretty much try to sound like a very weak version of this band, but with horrendous breakdowns. There are some hardcore-esque techniques employed in the band's sound, specifically the blast beats in the opening of "Cold War" and the vocal techniques. The strained, 'about-to-have-a-hernia' scream omnipresent in hardcore also makes an appearance in several tracks. Death From Above 1979 is heavy, fast, and fun, a strange combination but it works beautifully.

Beulah - The Coast is Never Clear

Soft and smooth, Beulah is very relaxing and easy to get into. The variation of instruments, from traditional acoustic guitar to woodwinds like the flute, creates a layering effect that furnishes the band with it's simplistic, yet diverse sound. The band is an interesting throwback to more basic indie, and it's quite refreshing. The vocals are extraordinarily soft and clean, mixing perfectly with the other instruments. Beulah lulls you into relaxation on waves of velvet sound. Very chill. I don't have a favorite song, I just love the whole album.

Arctic Monkeys - Favourite Worst Nightmare

I love the Arctic Monkeys. The lyrics are upbeat, nonsensical at times, and completely perfect for the style of music. The bass is loud and fast, the guitar plays a quick tempo in the upper octaves to match the driving rhythm of the bass. The tempo of some tracks becomes so upbeat they are almost ska-like. The band straddles the line between ska and indie and comes away with a unique sound that greatly endears itself to the listener.
The tracks themselves are a very refreshing departure from the mass of singer-songwriters that dominate the indie scene. The Arctic Monkeys seem that realize that music should sound great and be fun and Favourite Worst Nightmare reflects this ideology precisely. One interesting thing I noticed about this album is that as you get farther along, the singer falls deeper and deeper into his British(?) accent. Doesn't really have much to do with the music, it was just a little thing I noticed. My favorite song of the album would have to be "505"

Arcade Fire - Funeral

Arcade Fire is an indie band whose instruments never get very technical, but they keep the beat moving and allow the vocals to leap out of the mix and do their thing. Arcade Fire is reminiscent of the Dirty Projectors and Broken Social Scene in some tracks, specifically in "Neighborhood #2 (Laika)". Funeral is my favorite album of the two that I currently have, the other being Neon Bible. My favorite song out of Funeral is "Neighborhood #3 (Power Out)".
