Nice man, reminded me of The Coral, which is surely a good thing! Had a great rhythm too.

Cheikh Lô - Ne La Thiass
http://www.last.fm/music/Cheikh+Lô/_/Ne+La+Thiass
A brilliant singer songwriter from Senegal. His songs often have a gorgeously lilting samba beat, exceptional guitar playing, and thick warm vocal melodies. It's proper BBQ sunshine music.

Sorry man, I thought it was awful. I lasted about a minute before my brain melted. I'm all for breakbeats and acid snare loops, but jeez, this is just a mess IMO.

hah, no reason to be sorry. it's definitely not music for everyone, it gains a little structure as it goes on but you probably wouldn't like it overall if the intro put you off that much.
the song was decent, i really was not a fan of the raspy vocals or tinny mixing though. 4/10

This is hip shaking Disco-Funk right here. Have always loved it, and always will. 9/10

I don't typically like keyboard/piano centric/focused music (with some exceptions) but, respect the Greg Howe! 6/10

Considering I like both of these songs and the mashup with Language in the background is great, I'm gonna rate it a 9/10.

Elfonia - Modos Humanos
Quick translation of lyrics here
God I love Marcela Bovio.
I wish that Elfonia would make another album, but I do have the awesome "Stream of Passion" to get me by.

Really interesting. It started off sounding like something from Metal Gear, then went all Pink Floyd. Very sombre and evocative.
I'd say I enjoyed it, but perhaps not something I'd choose to listen to.
8/10
The Joy Formidable - A Heavy Abacus
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YsGg_07VrX0
It sounds like Throwing Muses on ecstasy. It's just so joyous and noisy! Perfect summer time record.

Felt a bit long, but when I looked at the tab after I finished it was only 3:44. Guess I found it sort of uninteresting, but not offending in any way. 6/10
Unknown Mortal Orchestra - Swim and Sleep (Like a Shark)
I'd post the music video but it seems a bit too risque.

I don't like it that is just hangs out and doesn't go anywhere interesting. Also the singer and guitars are just not for me. 4/10
Amia Venera Landscape - "Empire"

The music sounded pretty good, then the vocals came in.
Nope.
I'm not going to lie, I stopped it after 2 minutes. I just can't get into stuff like this. The screamo nonsense is just bullshit posturing to me. I like emo (clearly) but this is just taken to the max. I just don't buy it, so the over-emoting just seems superfluous, and actually detracts from the rest of the band.
8/10 for the music (they actually sounded a bit like Faraquet musically, which is awesome. But the rhythms were a lot quicker.)
- 5 for the vocals.
3/10. Sorry man!
The Dead Weather - Treat Me Like Your Mother
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7QSkI6My1g
Jack White and Alison Mossheart, aww yiss. I love this tune, Jack showing his props on the drums, juicy riffs and snarling vocals. Fucking awesome video too.

Nice guitar on this, and I like the "spacey" effect when they sing the title of the song. 8/10
Honey Cone - If I Can't Fly
really dope and classic I love it... kinda reminded me of the movie Drive,
my favo Ferrari car is in the video also
I give it 8/10
This is sort of different

Not something I'd usually listen to, and I wasn't sure what to expect. It gets a little tedious / monotonous toward the end, but is certainly not bad.

Thats not to bad, I'm not typically a fan of indie, but it was nice listen.

Very good, did not know this band.
Reminds me a bit of slowcore bands like Tram, although the vocals are quite different.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NqvMbyH2dQ8
EDIT: IceDoesntHelp song
Japanese Electro, that's a first for me, although I would've expected it to be much crazier since Japanese tend to crank everything everyone else do to 11. It's ok.
4/10 sounds like it should be in Jet Set Radio (dang it, not above me (capsule))

This is very different. I like the "atonal" sound of the keyboard, followed by the dreamy synth. 8/10
Dark Quarterer - Colossus of Argil
You would think that this came from the early to mid 70's, but it is in fact from the late 80's. Also the sound quality is what it is, the songs were recorded that way.

I really like the music, but is there something wrong with the equalization or something? Those basses kinda are kinda disturbing.
