Frightened Rabbit is a Scottish band that steadily continues to impress, and their latest release, Pedestrian Verse, is no exception. At its core, it is a somewhat pedestrian release, in that it represents common people’s issues, problems, and experiences.
Eels still happy; album not as awesome
Though it may be cruel to wish ill on those you admire, I sort of want Mark Oliver Everitt (E) to channel his tragedy to make another masterpiece. Like many aging musicians, he’s gotten more peaceful and cute on his recent endeavors.
Born To Die – Paradise Edition

What’s Good – Sunburn EP by Baio
Sunburn EP – Baio This new EP from Vampire Weekend’s bassist Chris Baio is very appropriately titled. I say so because this album would be perfect for a lazy day at the beach just baking in the sun all day.
