Caribou - Swim

caribou did it again with a nicely sounding production but very different from his earlier works. it seems he got pretty influenced by this new electro-club fad and he did his own take on it. its full of his trademark mixture of acoustic and ethnic sounding instruments along with a tribalist percussive feel that gives his music a unique vibe.

hell yeah for cover arts.

Fucked Up - The Chemistry Of Common Life

this punk-ass hardcore band from Canada shows some mad skills in music making. its a little hard these days to start a punk band and actually stand out from the rest. pushing the limits of its hardcore roots and making some good ol` noisy piss music while having a beautiful cover art for their debut album makes it worth to listen to. their live shows are a bit of a spectacle; things get destroyed and people get hurt. good times. the campo-formio boys are going to love this.

beautiful fucking cover art.

Do Make Say Think - Goodbye Enemy Airship, The Landlord Is Dead

yet another album that grew up with me and shaped my ears into the eclectic listener i try to be. a good production from another humble canadian band that recorded this album inside a strange place. epic soundtracks for those long drives and cozy moments in life. long loops of distorted guitars with some rare delayed atmospheres.
