"Terrible things are happening outside. At any time of day, poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. If only I can be myself, I'll be satisfied. I know that I'm a woman with inner strength and a great deal of courage. If God lets me live, I'll achieve more than mother ever did."
- Freedom Writers

Wise Blood

The new White Lies single; put on repeat and love.

Will you look at this?! – Yes, I hear you…
What the hell is she thinking? – I know it’s different…
Different? It’s another galaxy! – But…
It’s Kanye f’ing West! – Just be open-minded for 6 short minutes of your life, will you?!

No but in all seriousness: I warned you about this, read my about. I like everything, even this very confusing collab. No, I haven’t been slapped in the face yet. Go figure!

No, I don't think this song will be new to anybody - it's only been featured in about a thousand different movies - but that doesn't change the fact that it's still an awesome song.
Tell me you don't want to get up dance when you hear this; and I'll pretend to believe you... ;)

Grimes is Montreal based Claire Boucher. Early this year she released a cassette called Geidi Primes and in september her first LP Halfaxa. Both received great critiques and who am I to say they're all wrong?

Also: My first post on Grimes.

I wish I could tell you more about this band, but there really isn't much more information around. They're/he's/she's from Canada and they make/he makes/she makes pretty catchy music.

Hipsterland is buzzing about a new band! Meet Warpaint:



And you've got to admit, they're quite incredible..

Oh Simple Minds, how I love thee! It's quite safe to say that they're my favourite 80's band (The eighties yet again, I know). The money I'd give to see them live someday...

New Baths track! Close your eyes and drift away...

R.I.P. Burn Face is my favourite track from Grey Oceans. I never really listened to CocoRosie untill this album, now I wonder why. They're kind of amazing.
