Work Drugs - Rolling in the Deep (Cover)

Remember the whole Adele craze a while a go? Or is it still going on? Either way a while ago before I had started this blog I frequented the blog Newdust and they made a post in like August of last year about this cover of Rolling in the Deep by Adele and ever since then I have wanted to share it with people. So here it is! It took a long time to find again but I think it's worth it.


It's such a good cover. To be honest with you guys Adele isn't really my jam. Don't get me wrong, she's not bad, and whenever I'm in the car with my mom she insists on either playing Adele or Snow Patrol but it was nothing that I was really too crazy about. This though, is really awesome. Work Drugs have done such a groovy job turning this song into something new.

Beach House release new album

Last week the dream-pop brand Beach House released their newest album called Bloom. It's a 10 song long album with a groovy and droney sound throughout. A great album for anyone who enjoys dreamy ethereal pop. 

I can't put the whole album on here cause then Beach House wouldn't be getting the money they deserve but here's two songs from the album that I thought were exceptionally good. If you like it please buy the album! You can get the CD here and if you're a cool kid you can get the vinyl here.

EP Review: Animal Collective "Honeycomb/Gotham"

Earlier this month the group, Animal Collective released a new EP entitled Honeycomb/Gotham. To all who have never heard of Animal Collective, they're pretty cool. I know, right now you're probably thinking, "Squanto, you suck ass at describing bands," but Animal Collective isn't a band, so your statement is false. 

I'll leave the lengthy description and discography of them to a later post but Animal Collective is...well a collective of avant-garde artists that have been making some really groovy music since 2000. Their newest creation, and EP called Honeycomb/Gotham, is just as weird and amazing as all their music and is definitely worth a listen.

Animal Collective is definitely an experimental group. if you have never heard experimental music you might not like it. Not gonna lie to you and say its awesome, it's an acquired taste but I personally think that experimental music is the coolest stuff ever. It's so fun to listen to because it is nothing like "normal" music.

Here's a link to the first song on Honeycomb/Gotham called, you guessed it, Honeycomb.

And here's the second song, Gotham. Enjoy!
