The Unknown & Unheard Show 124!!!

Stream & Download The Unknown & Unheard Show 124 Right Here, Right Now! Baby Teeth – Big Schools – Hustle Beach (2009) - forthcoming 2nd full length - The Hold Steady Light? - Great big anthem with a touch more pop feels than The Hold Steady. - A little 80’s sitcom theme vibe going on here… seems like such an odd combination of sounds but I think it works. Official Site : Myspace : Buy on Amazon : Stream on HypeMachine Lucero – San Francisco – Rebels, Rogues & Sworn Brothers (2007) - 3rd album of 6… they also have a Live CD/DVD out - band led by Ben Nichols o has a classic gritty raspy bar rock singing voice - name means ‘bright star’ in Spanish. - Kicked ass at Radio Radio with Titus Andronicus Official Site : Myspace : Buy on Amazon : Stream on HypeMachine Suckers – Easy Chairs – Suckers EP (2009) - debut EP - big pounding, distorted anthem with a couple huge builds - loads of hype around this short 4 song release… deservedly so! - Love this Song! Myspace : Buy on Amazon : Stream on HypeMachine Sunset Rubdown – Idiot Heart – Dragonslayer (2009) - 4th album - One of Spencer Krug’s four highly regarded bands - All have a distinct sound. - Wolf Parade, Frog Eyes, Sunset Rubdown, Swan Lake Official Site : Myspace : Buy on Amazon : Stream on HypeMachine Boston Spaceships – Tattoo Mission – Planets are Blasted (2009) - a new album from Robert Pollard??? Imagine that - Guess what… it’s another quality effort. This one has a nice glam rock riff to it - Robert Pollard = Former Guided By Voices frontman and Indie Rock Idol Official Site : Myspace : Buy on Amazon : Stream on HypeMachine The Dukes of Stratosphear – My Love Explodes – 25 O’clock (1987) - one of 2 albums from this alter ego of the band XTC - odd style of psychadelia reminiscent of Syd Barrett - I’m digging the Gong in this track more than I should. Myspace : Buy on Amazon : Stream on HypeMachine Titus Andronicus - Joset of Nazareth's Blues - The Airing of Grievances (2008) - debut album - huge reviews - this band’s energy and compositions are really good but the vocals are a little harsh and might turn off some people - hopefully you will persevere through, because I think this band is about an album’s worth of time and polish away from a brilliant effort. Official Site : Myspace : Buy on Amazon : Stream on HypeMachine The Black Lips – Drugs – 200 Million Thousand (2009) - 5th album… out February 24th - This is an album that may sound like some other bands but the sum of the parts results in something truly unique to the Black Lips. - One of the best albums of the year - Playing the Pitchfork Music Fest Official Site : Myspace : Buy on Amazon : Stream on HypeMachine White Denim – Sitting – Workout Holiday (2008) - debut full length - this album belongs in the 60’s - the sounds sound familiar but the way they are assembled and presented make it one of the more impressive and unique albums you will run your ears across Official Site : Myspace : Buy on Amazon : Stream on HypeMachine The Strange Boys – This Girls Taught Me a Dance – The Strange Boys & Girls Club (2009) - debut full length - in the same vein as the Black Lips… lo-fi mash-up of 60’s/70’s rock, old r&b and punk. Myspace : Stream on HypeMachine
Tommy Jay – I Was There - Tommy Jay's Tall Tales Of Trauma (2007) - Debut release? - originally release on cassette in 1986 - I really have no idea about this guy. Myspace : Buy on Amazon : Stream on HypeMachine Bill Callahan - The Wind And The Dove - Sometimes I Wish We Were An Eagle (2009) - 2nd album - Folk singer/songwriter type - The voice gets me here more than anything Myspace : Buy on Amazon : Stream on HypeMachine Kurt Vile – My Best Friends (Don't Even Pass This)– God Is Saying This To You (2009) - Solo debut. Most recent is the stripped down ‘God Is Saying This To You?’ - dreamy pop rock with vocals that bring up thoughts of Devendra Banhart - like Iron & Wine, cut his teeth with lo-fi recordings… Official Site : Myspace : Buy on Amazon : Stream on HypeMachine
