Titled Toeachizown Vol. 4: Hood. Discovery or even Daft Punk.

Wednesday, February 9, 2011. Smith Westerns- Dye It Blonde (2011). Recommended if you like: Harlem, Black Kids, Destroyer, Girls, Magic Kids, Born Ruffians, The Morning Benders. All the members of Smith Westerns are younger than me. Man, does that make me feel unaccomplished. Anyway, that youthful energy definitely shines through on the band's sophomore effort, Dye It Blonde. Sounds like what The Morning Benders were going for with Big Echo. Is fun as hell. Click the album artwork to sample. Smith Wester...

http://woosamonsaroad.blogspot.com/2011/03/double-dagger-more-2009.html
Wednesday, March 23, 2011. Double Dagger- More (2009). Recommended if you like: Sonic Youth, No Age, Pissed Jeans, Weekend, Pavement, Death From Above 1979, Fugazi, Moss Icon, Joy Division. Listening to Smith Westerns' Dye It Blonde. Are gritty, loud and unashamed. Even when you trace Wilco's discography, you can see how the spry, upbeat ballads of Summerteeth. Have been slowly traded in for slower acoustic reflections or even the "dad-rock" of Sky Blue Sky. Most importantly, More. In it's entirety, More.

Woosamonsa Road: November 2010
http://woosamonsaroad.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 10, 2010. Tyondai Braxton- Central Market (2009). I dont know how it took me so long to grab this one by Battles former front man Tyondai Braxton considering that Mirrored. Is one of my favorite albums of all time. On Central Market. Braxton utilizes the same palette of sounds we heard on Mirrored. Piercing whistles, grinding gear noises, loud yelps. But Central Market.

November of this year will mark the 20-year anniversary of My Bloody Valentine’s landmark album Loveless. A record that is perhaps the finest representation of the shoegaze genre.

Don't let the band name turn you off, A Day In Black and White's My Heroes Have Always Killed Cowboys. Is one of the most intense and beautiful cuts of post-hardcore I've ever heard.

It's 3:30am and I'm listening to the ridiculously tripped out sounds of Gary War's Horribles Parade. I can't find much on the information on the dude(s), but one website claims that he's a former member of Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti. Not hard to believe, given how ridiculously far-out the stuff on Horribles Parade. All musi...
