BAND CRUSH: Library Kids

Before you list down your top/best/favorite whatever of 2012, you might want to check out this duo whose brand of indie folk might put them on your number one spot. Barely a month old project, Library Kids' dreamy take on folk music can be compared to Bon Iver, Fleet Foxes or even Sigur Rós with pop sensibilities. I have here two of their demos, still hot off their recording sessions. Hit play and abuse the repeat button.




Oh! Did i tell you they're a Filipino band?

ANOTHER NEW MUSIC: Ekki Múkk by Sigur Rós

Lots of new music today and I think this is one of my faves so far. Sigur Rós is back from their hiatus with this ethereal song Ekki Múkk (no idea what it means) and gad, they sound recharged!

LIVE STREAM: Go by Jónsi [complete album track]

After Sigur Rós announced their 'indefinite hiatus,' lead singer and guitarist Jónsi made himself busy and released a solo album of epic proportion. Almost every track in his album, Go, can be a soundtrack of any a Disney or James Cameron  movie. Montages of a possible scene are in my head while listening to the album. Coming from a band that doesn't do small, Jónsi put much effort in creating the album in a massive scale coz a lot of people were expecting too much and i think he delivered. I didn't skip any track from Go but my faves from the album are Boy Lilikoi, Around Us and the opening track Go Do.

Here's the complete audio streaming of Go
