Band Of Skulls: Light Of The Morning
Have you seen the new Ford 2011 Mustang ad. In particular, have you heard this ad? The music rocks, and it took me a while to track down who performs this song. It is by “Band Of Skulls”, a band name I am familiar with and placed on the “must listen to [...]
Glasvegas: Ice Cream Van
Ice Cream Van’s are creepy at the best of times, but the local one in my neighborhood has to rank amongst the creepiest. As a parent, you must be out of your mind to allow your child to run down the road after an Ice Cream Van with “Mr. Ding-a-Ling” painted on the side [...]
The Lovemakers: Shake That Ass
I have a new favorite worst song. The Michael Jackson howls, the Scissor Sisters disco beat, the band’s name, the lyrics – this is all too much. There is a official video for this song, but it is so bad I didn’t want to damagemy blog anymore than it already has been by [...]
Mando Diao: Down In The Past

The Sounds: Dorchester Hotel
I love discovering a band on my own – the challenge in searching through “similar artists” lists or computer-generated “recommended artists”. The Sounds have been around for quite a while, but I only just listened to their music for the first time last month. They hail from Sweden, that country that took [...]
Pinback: Syracuse
This song is not about the Syracuse, in Central New York, that is for sure. I’m not even sure if this uber-cool song from Indie-Rock band Pinback is named after Siracusa, in Italy. I wish I could ask them, but as I’m not in the vicinity of San Diego I’d probably have [...]
