Nice premise for a journal, I approve. For the most part the music you've posted is relatively new to me, I'm definitely intrigued.

I think it's high time a bit of modern life was injected into the forums, rather than the same old stale debates of 70's rocknroll.

Local Natives - Airplanes

If your ears have been tuned to the right station for the past couple of months, then you might have already heard talk of Local Natives. But for the rest of you, the initiation process is only one click away. They have that Annuals gypsy charm to them. My new favourite band, soon to be yours.

Because of my unfaltering belief that you will love them, here is a link to their myspace.

COMANECHI - Rabbit Hole

If you ever wondered what Yeah Yeah Yeah's would've sounded like had they not jumped on the synth bandwagon, then this is your answer. A blistering 2 minutes of unpolished scuzz rock featuring the best frontwoman since that bird from CSS started shagging a Klaxon. A beautiful mess.

Hockey - A Song Away

After seeing them on the Live Circuit and being relatively unimpressed, it is intriguing that label big-wigs EMI have snapped up Hockey and, inexplicably, turned them into something quite fantastic. One of the only examples I can think of where a fresh coat of money actually improves a bands performance, this will not in any way alter your world. But it will make it that bit brighter. Monday morning anthem.

Seems we had similar ideas around the same time. Haven't had the opportunity to look through the suggestions as of yet but am keen to see this develop

Ian Brown - Just Like You

Though I have never been a big fan of 'King Monkey's solo output, the second single from his most recent LP 'My Way' is the stuff of genius. From the quite hilarious video (burlesque backing dancers going baggy? Superb) to the stirring synth riff cutting through the chorus, 'Just Like You' is Brown flicking the V's at those Roses reunion rumours.

Robbie Williams - You Know Me

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a Robbie fan. I want this to be Christmas Number One.

Bob Dylan - Must Be Santa

Wow.
