Young the Giant - Cough Syrup





Wild Orchid - Love Will Wait 
This is an old song that I've been searching in YouTube for long. It's 1996 kinda old. Yes, I listened to them back then of their eponymous album. One of the singer Stacy Ferguson is what currently known as Fergie. She has a powerful vocal back then, not forgetting beautiful, she lost it all to meth. 





The Weepies - Be My Honeypie




Morgan Page ft Tegan and Sara - Body Work

Album Review: Other Lives - Tamer Animals (2011)



I am one of thousands of Other Lives band since my fave hit 'Black Table', I own their 2009 eponymous album. This new release (not really new actually, released in UK August 2011) sounded almost too commercial it closely resembles The Black Keys. Music styles sorta Arcade Fire-ish. 

Seriously if it wasn't for strum of various acoustic strings, I can actually bought it that they are indeed the latter. Most likely because vocally Jesse Tabish (of Other Lives) and Dan Auerbach (of The Black Keys) are almost indistinguishable except Auerbach has a hint of falsetto in his. Now if you put Chris Cornell (of Audioslaves) into this picture, it'll all sound confusing.


But this album is flooded with excellent composition nonetheless. My favorite is 'Dust Bowl III' and 'For 12', I need to frequent this album to get a hang of it.






THE TRACKLIST:

  • Dark Horse
  • As I Lay My Head Down
  • For 12
  • Tamer Animals
  • Dust Bowl III
  • Weather
  • Old Statues
  • Woodwind
  • Desert
  • Landforms
  • Heading East
