Torres - Mother Earth, Father God

Torres - Mother Earth, Father God

I was born on bloody battleground
To the metal men between two realms
The hungry eyes linger as she twirls
Got hands lifted to heaven
And her toes dipped in hell

Oh, Mother Earth, oh, Father God
The demons wager on my fall
The greatest trick I ever saw
Was them fooling us to think they were never here at all

These New Puritans - Field of Reeds

A new TNPs album is due for release on 10th June 2013, 'Field of Reeds'. (From their website http://www.thesenewpuritans.com). What amazes me is the sheer volume of precision and creative effort that goes into a TNP record, and some of that is visible from the teaser clip below:

Fever Ray - If I had a Heart

We got to talking about this theme song to the Vikings series at AAI, so I figured I'd post it :)

Fever Ray - If I had a Heart

Noah and The Whale - There Will Come A Time

Blessed insomnia has lead me to the discovery that I missed the fact that Noah and The Whale dropped a new album last week. I just downloaded Heart of Nowhere and am already in love with the track There Will Come A Time. Enjoy!

Cloud Cult - 1x1x1

I'm really loving this group - and this video, not least cos it shows Cloud Cult really rocking out :)

(Thanks to DJ Dox for recommending them!) :)

Mop Mop

Zhu turned me onto Jazz/experimental band Mop Mop recently. These tunes are so catchy they're addictive :)

Mop Mop - Let I Go (Feat. Anthony Joseph)

Mop Mop - The Lowered Flag

The National - Sea of Love

The new album by The National, 'Trouble Will Find Me' is what it says on the box - a National album. If you liked the others, you should like this one too. I'm loving it :)

See for yourself:

The National - Sea of Love

Will you say you love me Jo?
How am I supposed to know?
When you go under the waves
What am I supposed to say?

I see people on the floor
They're slidin' to the sea
Can't stay here anymore
We're turning into thieves

If I stay here trouble will find me
If I stay here I'll never leave
If I stay here trouble will find me
I believe
