Death Cab for Cutie - I Will Possess Your Heart VIDEO
Su primer sencillo:
How I wish you could see the potential, the potential of you and me
It's like a book elegantly bound, but in a language that you can't read - just yet
You gotta spend some time--love, you gotta spend some time with me
And I know that you'll find--love, I will possess your heart (x2)
There are days when outside your window, I see my reflection as I slowly pass
And I long for this mirrored perspective, when we'll be lovers, lovers at last
You gotta spend some time--love, you gotta spend some time with me
And I know that you'll find--love, I will possess your heart(x2)
I will possess your heart (x2)
You reject my advances and desperate pleas
I won't let you, let me down so easily, so easily
You gotta spend some time--love, you gotta spend some time with me
And I know that you'll find--love, I will possess your heart (x3)
I will possess your heart (x2)

Bio en FanacticPromotion:
We Were The States. We live off Bukowski, red wine and Italian food. Our stereos swell with the sounds of The Kinks, The Walkmen, Oasis, Dandy Warhols, and the like. We are men of passion. Some are college educated, some would rather stay out of it. It is no doubt that all are wise.
The band as we know it today began in February of 2007 but its roots can be traced back to 2003. Jay Stoyanov and Justin Webb met at the restaurant they both worked at in Murfreesboro, TN. After a couple of years of writing and playing with several musicians, they finally found a solid line-up with the addition of Ben Moore on bass and Nick Devan on drums.
They recorded and self released an E.P. Nick later left to curate the National Knife Museum and was replaced by the outstanding Tyler Coppage. In 2007, they signed with Austin indie Chicken Ranch Records, changed their name and sound, and began work on their debut full length entitled Believe the Thieves.
The album was produced by Tennesse rock staple Brian Carter (The Features, Glossary, The Nobility). The album was recorded in two weeks but Brian and the brave men of WWTS spent several months tweaking every element to the desired sonic quality. What is left is a disfunctionaly glorious piece of sound.

Editor's review
This jangle-pop bunch follows the Beach Boys in sentiment and style, but it has new ends in mind. Put differently, the group wishes they all could be South Carolina girls. Musically, this means plenty of tambourines and twee harmonies, but with orchestration that's more psychedelic than sandy.
Biography
The Explorers Club's sunny psychedelic pop, replete with lush arrangements and cushy four-part harmonies, harkens back to a decade long ago, when kids turned on their FM radios to find the cool new thing. The band draws on the soul-satisfying vocal style made famous by the Beach Boys and the Association, and pairs it with arrangements patented by the likes of Phil Spector, the Left Banke and the Zombies. These 1960s pop reference points are undeniable, but this is not a band that sounds influenced by the Beach Boys records in their collection - the Explorers Club's pop songs sound as authentic as if they had actually just been unearthed for a new Nuggets collection or compiled for a deluxe Sundazed or Rev-Ola reissue. In other words, this bunch of early twenty-somethings channel a bygone era without sounding burdened by it. This type of pleasure-seeking pop sound historically hails from beachside towns, and the Explorer's Club is no exception; their home is not an iconic California surfing city but Charleston, South Carolina. Twenty-six-year-old Jason Brewer does the songwriting and arranging, while the complex vocal harmonies come courtesy of James Faust, Nathan Hussey, and David Ellis. Filling out the instrumental sound of the Explorers Club on organ and drums, respectively, are Stefan Rogenmoser and Neil Thomas. This six-man band has been charming new fans with epic live shows since July of 2005, and with a debut album on the horizon, the Explorers Club is primed to reintroduce some splendor into the pop music world.

WEB
MySpace
Bio recogida en su WEB:
Formado a mediados de 2005, Buzzers (Ángel Morán, bajo y voz; Iván Morán en la guitarra y Roberto González a la batería) se mueve entre estilos que van desde el pop al rock, aunque como sus integrantes comentan “añadimos a nuestros temas los colores que cada canción, por sí misma, nos pide”.
Los hermanos Ángel e Iván Morán comenzaron su andadura musical en 2003 formando parte de La Badulaque, una banda de versiones de Rock’n Roll. Cuando este proyecto finaliza, deciden que ha llegado el momento de componer e interpretar sus propios temas. Así es como nace Buzzers.
Un año después Roberto González se une al proyecto como baterista. Roberto aporta al grupo su experiencia en otras bandas como Still Without Name, así como los conocimientos adquiridos como alumno de Pedro Cuevas.
Hoy por hoy, Buzzers está abriéndose un hueco en la difícil escena underground madrileña, dando conciertos en algunas de las salas más potentes del circuito actual (La Sal, El Juglar, Ritmo & Compás, Fotomatón, FNAC...) y participando en festivales como el Festival Benéfico Yosoyunladrillo (www.yosoyunladrillo.com) o el Madrid Pop Festival (www.myspace.com/impf2007), junto a grupos como Sion, Anima Pop, Estrella Polar, Zenttric o The Cigrones.
Sus influencias mezclan sonidos que van desde Elvis a Hellacopters, pasando por Radiohead, House of Pain, U2, Pixies, Led Zeppelin o Jon Spencer, entre otros.

Big Runga- Sway
When you and I collide
I fall into an ocean of you
Pull me out in time
Don't let me drown
Let me down
I say its all because of you and here I go
Losing my control
I'm practising your name
So I can say it to your face it doesn't seem right
To look you in the eye
And let all the things you mean to me
Come tumbling out my mouth indeed its time
Tell you why
I say its infinately true
Say you'll stay
Don't come and go
Like you do
Sway my way

Yael Naim- "New soul" VIDEO y LETRA
Lyrics:
I'm a new soul
I came to this strange world
Hoping I could learn a bit 'bout how to give and take
But since I came here
Felt the joy and the fear
Finding myself making every possible mistake
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-l a-la la-la-la la-la-la (2x)
I'm a young soul
In this very strange world
Hoping I could learn a bit 'bout what is true and fake
But why all this hate?
Trying to communicate
Finding trust and love is not always easy to make
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-l a-la la-la-la la-la-la (2x)
This is a happy end
'Cause you don't understand
Everything you have done
Why is everything so wrong?
This is a happy end
Come and give me your hand
I'll take you far away
I'm a new soul
I came to this strange world
Hoping I could learn a bit 'bout how to give and take
But since I came here
Felt the joy and the fear
Finding myself making every possible mistake
(New Soul...
In this very strange world...
Every possible mistake...
Possible mistake...
Every possible mistake, mistakes, mistakes...)
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la...
Neon Neon - I lust you
Formé par deux génies, Gruff Rhys (Super Furry Animals) et Boom Bip, Neon Neon ne pouvait mal faire. Et non seulement Neon Neon ne fait pas mal, mais Neon Neon fait beaucoup de bien : intégralement constitué de tubes énormes, totalement azimuté, jonglant avec brio entre électro rutilante, délires ultra-pop ou crunk hilarant, Stainless Style, leur premier album, est sans doute l'un des plus réjouissants de l'année.-LesInrocks
http://www.lesinrocks.com/index.php?id=62&tx_article[notule]=207972&cHash=b916322363
YouTube:
As the latest single from the Neon Neon showroom, I Lust U will be released digitally, on 7", and on 12" which includes the supercharged remix of Trick For Treat by musical mechanics Hot Chip. The single also comes with desirable I Lust U remix by Heartbreak, who are preparing to burst in to the minds of many with their goth tinged italo-disco, which, according to NME "has got many a tongue wagging". Neon Neon's waxed, polished and race-tuned Stainless Style album rolls off the production line on 17th March.
Neon Neon is the artist name for the combined musical powers of Los Angeles based producer Boom Bip and Super Furry Animals main man and solo star Gruff Rhys. Ahead of the duo's pole-position placed debut album Stainless Style comes new offering I Lust U featuring up and coming Welsh starlet Cate Le Bon. The single is an ice cool, 80's inspired lovelorn lament between Gruff and Cate underpinned throughout by Boom Bip's stripped-back and stylish synth-lead production.

The Dodos - Fools
Happy Hardcre
San Francisco, California
United States
-Fools (VIDEO)
Fools está incluida en su último trabajo llamado Visiter, que salió el 18 de Marzo en Frenchkiss Records.
Info en su MySpace:
Visiter by San Francisco band The Dodos is their second full length and first for Frenchkiss. Originally formed in 2006 under the moniker Dodobird as a one man acoustic act, Meric Long would gig around SF playing folky guitar w/ a combination of loops and ambient keyboards. Having already studied West African Ewe drumming, Meric got turned onto country blues fingerpicking and sought to create a band where the drumming could be a center role and help bring out the syncopated rhythms coming out of the acoustic guitar. Through a chance introduction by a roommate, Meric met Santa Cruz transplant Logan Kroeber, who had also been experimenting with drumming, but in the area of progressive metal. Eventually the band changed their name to the Dodos, through constant harrowing from first tourmates Peter and the Wolf, and got a rehearsal studio where they'd spend long hours improvising the music that would become their first record Beware of the Maniacs. The band quit their day jobs as a line cook and a printer and hit the road in Oct. 2006.
The Dodos' principal concept behind Visiter was to reconnect with the energy and intensity of their live show. They decided to return to Type Foundry Studio where Beware of the Maniacs had been recorded. With producer/engineer John Askew back at the helm, they began expounding upon what they had learned since the previous record. The basic drum and guitar takes were recorded live simultaneously with very minimal post production. Type Foundry's warehouse-sized live room led to experimentation with mic placement, capturing a variety of ambient & natural sounds. At one point during tracking, the audible din of a thunderstorm inspired an impromptu horn session between Meric and guest trumpeter, Cory Gray. A small section of this can be heard between the songs "Fools" and "Joe's Waltz" on the record.
Visiter was completely written while on the road from the fall of 2006 to the summer of 2007.
The name of the record came from a drawing a kid did for them when they played for his special education class at Dorsey High in South Central on a road trip down to LA. With all of their time being spent on the road, Meric's lyrics drew heavily from his experiences while touring. They would come home for days at a time, and then leave for a month, always coming and going, which pretty much shaped every relationship the band had during that year.
The Dodos toured in 2007 with Les Savy Fav, Akron/Family, Jennifer Gentle, Wovenhand and Peter and the Wolf. 2008 will bring even more touring for them with a Spring tour confirmed dates at Noise Pop and SXSW.
We'd like to encourage you buy The Dodos upcoming Frenchkiss release "Visiter" at your local record store.
"Beware of the Maniacs" is available at Aquarius Records and Amoeba in San Francisco, from CD Baby, www.aquariusrecords.org and is distrbuted by Revolver at http://www.midheaven.com/. You can also purchase this CD at any live show from the band.
Meric Long's solo EP "Dodo Bird" is available from www.aquariusrecords.org or at any live show.

In Flight Radio created waves with their 2006 self-titled debut and are following up in April with their Sophomore effort, "The Sound Inside". The band is undeniably influenced by modern American indie rock, but have an equal fondness for the atmospheric guitar work of British bands such as The Doves and Radiohead. This fondness comes through loud and clear in their first single, "Red Flags." Don't miss your chance to get your hands on this track two months early and don't say we didn't warn you.

Jonquil
El 31 de Marzo, Jonquil estuvo en el Café La Palma en Madrid, dándonos a conocer su sonido en directo. Como me temía la cosa fue muy breve, tan sólo media hora. Empezaron una hora más tarde de lo previsto, bien para disfrutar tomándose algo tranquilamente en el Café, que está muy bien ambientado y decorado. Aparecieron alrededor de las 22h, y de repente consiguieron hacer un silencio rotundo para empezar a cantar el cantante, con una potente voz, que en el disco no se percibe con tanta fuerza. Abrieron nada más comenzar con su temazo Lions. Para luego seguir con más temas de Lions. Y aunque el escenario era algo estrecho, ellos parecían estar más o menos cómodos. Me gustó mucho su sonido, cuando cantaban todos a la vez con esas voces y sin instrumentos y cuando se arrancaban con el acordeón o con el violín.Seis grandes músicos que nos dejaron con ganas de más.
Aunque los videos sean cutres, los dejo aqui, para que no se me olvide que allí estuvimos. No recuerdo qué canción fue, creo que Whistle Low, que ya estaba ahi disfrutando a tope, y de repente se acaba... mier... De los 3 que fuimos, a dos nos encantó y al otro, no le hizo especial gracia. Pero cada uno tenemos sus gustos.
Un trocito de Lions
Un trocito de Babe,so now why no? (grabado porque me gustaba cuando cantaban todos a'capella)
