The xx

These guys are by no means new, but I love them and have been listening to them a lot lately. The xx is made up of the trio Jamie Smith, Oliver Sim, and Romy Croft from England. Their music is beautiful and their entire album, xx, is wonderful. Here is my favorite song, VCR.

Also, they are working on a new album and it is supposed to be out sometime this year so get excite!

The Rosebuds

Ivan Howard and Kelly Crisp (who kind of reminds me of Dee from It's Always Sunny) make up the core that is The Rosebuds. The band formed in 2001 in North Carolina where the two met at college and have since created 4 full length albums and a couple LPs. The music is an interesting mix between Bon Iver, Miike Snow. and a touch of the XX. Their most recent album, "Life Like" is what I call "tenawesome," and I would recommend it to anyone that enjoys the song I share with you this day. As a side note, they are planning on releasing a new album in early June, so in the event that the album is good you can expect hearing about this band again in the near future. Feast.

"Life Like"


Life can be difficult and all our plans and preconceived ideas about the future can be destroyed, but things will always work out. Always.
