Eye of the Tiger - Survivor.
The radio is good today.
Holy F*ck is the name of this band.

Nice pick. This and "Silva & Grimes" are my favorites off the new album.Quote:

Yeah - 808 State is awesome. Some of the only original acid house/rave music to have aged well.Quote:

Have you heard Shout Out Outt Out Out? They're kind like Holy F*ck, but more hipstery.Quote:

Broken Bells - Broken Bells
I'm glad I finally got around to this: it's worth a few listens.
Nono - No Crying

Acoustic-based, shoegazer stuff. So pretty. Reminds me of later-period Flying Saucer Attack, or Alt-Ctrl-Sleep. Definitely worth a listen. Streams for free, or you can purchase.

I'm always surprised by how overlooked the Beach Boys stuff from the late '60s and early '70s is. Friends, 20/20, Sunflower, and Surf's Up are all amazing albums. This period proved to be one marked by mature craftsmanship and a more serious tone.
This song...so good.
