Hipster Music




The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart .... That's all I've read in every hipster magazine, heard coming out of people's mouths, they're even featured on Myspace every so often, but not heard on the radio. And that's how I like it.

This band is a definite must hear. If your in the mood for something you've never ever heard before, then you'll love this. If you're going to check them out, I suggest hearing out "Everything With You". The video is just as sweet as the song. This little under-the-radar indie band is just starting to break out into the music scene. Get out from behind the curtains, TPOBPAH, you're name is in bright lights out here. Speaking of their name ... even the acronym of the name of this band is long. Who do they think they are, Fall Out Boy with their long titles?

I can't believe I'm saying this, but after many refusals of listening to NeverShoutNever (solely for the fact that I've seen way too many scene kids wearing the tee shirts, which means that it's way too mainstream for my liking, and probably involves a lot of whining), I bumped into a song of his. (I was pleasantly surprised to find out that it's a one man band with a guitar and a ukulele en tow. Check out "Trouble" and "LoversLoveLiarsLie". It's not my new favorite band, but it's tolerable. Maybe once he hits puberty, his more mature songs will rock the charts. Oops....who said that?

Thanks to Rob, I am now completely head over heels in love with Bowerbirds. I can't even suggest a song for you to listen to, because they are all incredible. www.myspace.com/bowerbirds. Get into it!!!!

I should really take this up as a career ... or lessen then free time I have on my hands.
