New and Old Bands

So, I have been listening to a few things of late that my friends should know about.

Bon Iver- This band has been everywhere and it is obvious why. For fans of folkish music.

Magnolia Electric Co.- A band that I fell in love with last year and it has only gotten stronger. For fans of alt. country and working class rock a la' Neil Young.

Junior Boys- "Begone Dull Care" The new album for the Junior Boys just leaked and is very unique. It is a new amalgam of electronic music.

Here We Go Magic- Without a proper release yet, this band is going to create some talk in the year to come. For fans of good lo-fi with an experimental tinge.

The Whitest Boy Alive-"Rules" The new album from Erlend Oye and co. is an extension of the first album, but with actual keyboards. Much more funky than the previous.

Sixto Rodriguez- "Cold Fact" This album was released in 1970 with mixed reviews but since they rereleased it in 2008, people cannot get enough! Psychadelic rock with blatant profanity.
