The new Bright Eyes song from their new record The People's Key. I can't WAIT for this album.

I Like Japanese Hardcore - Live On WFHB
Indie folk punk pop. From the Plan-It-X website: This was a short lived bloomington pop band along the lines of go sailor or cub. in fact, we did covers of each of those bands. the band was just us 2 people, Casey on guitar and vocals and (me) chris clavin on drums (poorly). We never got around to recording anything but once, casey played live on the cool local radio station during women in music week and i recorded it. i wasn't there, so it's just her solo.

Wingnut Dishwashers Union - Compost Yuppie Scum
This is reportedly the last song recorded by Wingnut Dishwashers Union before frontman Pat the Bunny entered rehab. Folk punk at its finest. This is one of his much lesser known songs, but it's really something. If you aren't familiar with this band or Pat the Bunny's other projects, familiarize yourself with them. He's one of the most talented and inspirational humans in the entire world.
1. Compost Yuppie Scum
Hi Ho Silver, Away! - Comprise
This is some sort of folk pop punk with a bit of emo from California.
1. We're working on it.

3 Songs From CJ the Kid
These are three songs by a pretty cool rapper from South Portland, Maine. This isn't an official release, it's a minicomp of the three songs of his that I have on my computer. They're all good, but I especially recommend "Believe In Make Believe." According to his Facebook page he has his first mixtape coming out on January 18th (two days from today, for all those unaware). Think of this as a teaser, and if you enjoy it, pick up the mixtape when it comes out.
1. Believe In Make Believe
2. Boom
3. City of Dreams

The Sea People - Lukka
This is hard to describe. It's like walking through a misty forest alone in the early morning, surrounded by green, listening to a girl sing at you backed by tribes of people across a huge valley landscape which builds up to a wall of disco violin funk thrown in there for good measure. In other words, download this song from Stanford University's The Sea People.

Be The Aeroplane - Everything Eventually Falls Apart...

This is a live recording of local emo-punk-somethingish band Mouth Washington. I was at this show (November 13th, 2010). It is amazing an I suggest you listen to it. These are only two of the maybe five songs they played opening for Dead Man's Clothes, but they're crazy good. Expect a record soon.
