Waiting for everyone else to agree might take too long.


I have been selfishly focusing on "academic pursuits" and "post-grad plans." Tres uncool. I need to update this way more and my Christmas post reminded me of that. Beginning today- I vow to make a concerted effort to be regular in my music sharing and unarguably hilariously clever commentary. I'm not going to be a fool and presume that non of you have ever heard of this wonderful band (Carles might make fun of me on Alt Report and call me a lamester. Then I will have to get a job at the Hot Topic in Concord Mall and cry myself to sleep every night), but at the very least I hope some of yinz don't have the album yet and will appreciate the beauty of free tunez.

Jordan, what band are you talking about? Please stop babbling. Ok, ok. You are right.

Enter TAME IMPALA.
So the beats. Oh the glory that is Tame Impala! The titans have united to bestow upon we mortals a refreshing dose of harmonic nostalgia that doesn't feel antiquated and unoriginal. I really believe in this band's lasting power (but what do I know). They have a sick old school feel to them--like late Beatles, maybe a little of The Who. They also have that hazy, gauzy feel--like a straight up, seriously rock and roll Avey Tare. This shit is amazing. Trust.
Neat Beats: Runaway, Houses, City, Clouds; Solitude is Bliss; Desire Be Desire Go


Oh and, its great music to ride your bike to.
PEACE OUT, GIRL/BOY SCOUT.
