twenty l one l pilots - Ode To Sleep

Welcome to what this Ohio duo call "Schizoid Pop!" This song slides between electronic, rap, and indie pop using transitions that sound right out a score from Phantom of the Opera.


Wonky Doll and the Echo - The Cut

I have to admit, with a name like Wonky, I suspected this would be love at first listen.  This indie rock foursome comes from Athens, Greece and describes their sound as "post-punk revival." My favorite single from their 2012 LP, Pleasant Thoughts, is The Cut. To me, this sounds like The Cure, Depeche Mode, and The Chain Gang of 1974 molded into one audibly delicious piece of ear candy...enjoy :)
