August Playlist

August is sort of a depressing month, it's like a Sunday, technically still the "weekend" but you know that you have a full work/school week ahead of you the next day. Anyways my relatives from California are in town! Which basically means I get to live in coffee shops and libraries for the next 12 days...I am really in need of more hide outs. So here is the August Playlist...10 days late. Again sorry...traumatic family reunions are never fun, I've spent the past week eating tubs of ice cream and rocking back in forth on my bedroom floor until they finally left...well sorta.

Dark Dark Dark - Daydreaming

I saw their acoustic set on watch listen and tell, and sure they do look like they are trying too hard...just like every other indie band now a days (or anyone walking up and down Elmwood...) but it's a damn good song.



Marina and the Diamonds - Fear and Loathing

SHE"S BACK! SHE'S BACK. Total girl crush mode. Plus her debut album was uh amazing! Cannot wait for this new EP...



Dan Black - Falling Star (feat Kid Cudi)

Dan Black samples Cosmic Love by Florence and the Machine and has Kid Cudi on the same track? WIN!



Dan Black - Alone

I really can't wait to see him again in concert...really good live by the way. This is off of his debut EP but he's finally gaining traction in the US.




Weezer - Pumped Up Kicks
I went to the "Foster the People" show in Buffalo last night (awesome by the way) and they mentioned that Weezer covered one of their songs so in return they covered one of Weezers! It was a really good cover by the way...but I searched for the Foster the People - Weezer tribute and couldn't find it, so I'm going with the Weezer - Foster the People one...Unfortunately...this is the best version I could find...Sorry!!!





Reverend and the Makers - Riot

Jam out to the sound of the London riots...
