For those about to shred. We salute you.

Mumford & Sons - Little Lion Man

I know this isn't new. And that's not OK. And we certainly are not known for our bluegrass prowess. But this cannot be denied. These guys are just flat out talented musucians. There are certain bands that come along and make you stop and think. These young men from England do just that. Haunting and on point, they stop time with their epic arrangement. My compliments to the band. Thanks to Tony Cofeecakes for the look on this.

The Naked & Famous - Young Blood

Not incredibly new, but just released in the US. Certainly worthy of a post. These guys are out of New Zealand and are blowing up over there and will be here in no time. They've got that Passion Pit sound. I like it. My friend Jose Fuego put it best: If Passion Pit and MGMT had a baby in New Zealand, it would be The Naked & Famous. They are playing this weekend in NYC. Good video too. Enjoy.

Girl Talk - All Day - New Album!

It's free. It's easy. One of the more anticipated albums of the year. Girl Talk is one of those artists that comes along once in a blue moon. You can't imagine what life was like without him. And you can't get enough of it. And all you want to do is just scream from the rooftops. The world needs more people like Gregg Gillis. A former chemical engineer, decided that lap top dance parties were the way to go. Thank god he did.

Girl Talk - Oh No

Awesome Helmet Cam Footage From Alaska

AK Valdez 2010 Helmet Cam from Seth Wescott on Vimeo.

I need to go to Alaska. I'm not one for helmet cams. But this is pretty epic.

That Looks Like Fun

Deeper from Bodark on Vimeo.

You can cop Deeper on itunes. Be sure to watch a DVD, then watch this DVD.

Brenton Duvall - Mean Planes & Taylor Gangs (Wiz Khalifa & Taylor Swift)

Wait. What? Is that Taylor Swift? Yep. Is that Wiz Khalifa? Yep. Is it a mashup? Yeah, but it's still pretty solid. Brenton Duvall brings the high heat with this mashup. Worthy of a post and you won't tell your friends you like it. But you and I both know you do. This post marks the double debut of Miss Swift and Wiz Khalifa too. Dope synth, Wiz has got flow, and Taylor? Well, Taylor's just an angel.

Video: Duck Sauce - Barbra Streisand

This is the best music video I have seen since Rad Anthem. And Rad Anthem is the best music video I have ever seen. So there's that. Duck Sauce is a collaboration between Armand Van Helden & A-Trak. The song is simple and catchy. This video is just fantastic.

PS - If this doesn't make you want to party in New York, nothing will.

The Wombats - Tokyo (Vampires & Wolves)

The Wombats have been around for a while. They're from Liverpool. They blew up a couple of years ago with their single: "Moving to New York". It was an insanely catchy post punk indie pop tune that could take weeks to get out of your head. Well, their latest track seems to be cut from the same cloth. Insanely catchy, almost a little too formulaic, but delicious nonetheless. All in all worthy of a listen. And apparently they've left New York behind for Tokyo since we last checked in with them. What are they army brats?

Bear Hands - Crime Pays

These guys are out of Brooklyn. I love their sound. It's a mix of funk, lo-fi rock and electro.  If Prince and Trouble Andrew had a beautiful baby, Bear Hands would be her name. Well these gents just happen to have an album coming out tomorrow. I'll be checking it out. You should too. Everybody knows that crime pays, and everybody loves it. Amen.

Bear Hands - Crime Pays

Labryrinth Ear - Navy Light

And the winner for weirdest band name to grace the most definitely goes to: Labyrinth Ear.

Labyrinth Ear -  Navy Light

Matt & Kim - Good For Great

Matt & Kim have a new album coming out tomorrow. We heard the insanely catchy "Cameras" a few weeks back and now they release this joint. From the jump this had my attention, literally from the first note. Another direction for the Brooklyn duo that is setting the table to follow up "Grand" with an even more impressive junior album "Sidewalks".
