!tashed

the robot was delicious but its just the icing on the cake which is the album.

always prattling on about wolves is an album from a duo based in denmark.
it was voted one of the top ten danish albums
and one of the most pervasive albums to me.
it grows on you and strikes you with all their sensitivity and heart.

the praise said the shark deserves from us here at !tashed is long overdue.
their songs make you wince and your red meat heart tinge.

with topics ranging from heartbreak, addiction to kids and even politics,
this isnt your run of the mill band
but an intelligent one which runs deep under the facade.

get their album if you think you have the time to appreciate some good music.
which should be all the time.

they released their album in europe in may but
has only recently filtered to my ears in recent months

plastic operator has come out with one of the finest albums of the year.

the lines are blurred in this album where
chill is the heart, electro the soul and pop in their minds.

an absolutely blissful album with so many diverse elements,
its as good to wake up, drive with or
just take a couple of hours to drift away in their world.

their hooks and bass lines purely infectious..
they seem so well-oiled unlike the rawness you hear in so many bands

one of the best things to come out of australia thus far.

when jenn grant’s label sent me her album i greeted her with apprehension
i mean its normal when you hear comparisons to yet another female singer

boy was i wrong.
she was no psuedo jenny lewis or leslie feist.
she is jenn grant.

the single im posting blew me and tore me apart.
it was the song that got me through november.
it will bring out the idealist in you to dream and
have the faint taste of cigarettes swirl in your head.

she has shared the stage with feist, josh ritter and
toured the fall with great lake swimmers this yr.

go forth and dream. christmas is comin.

dont you love covers.
especially when contemporary artists cover late greats.
the shins covering pink floyd??

yeah breathe in the air, dont be afraid to care.
heck it i think the result is just pure elation.

these 2 songs are 5 star favorites.
they hit the roof on the ‘play count’ list on my itunes

the second song isnt exactly a cover but it was remixed
by your friendly neighbours peter, bjorn and john..
which took me to another place as well.

celebrate the shins and wince the night away.

mp3|the shins-breathe (pink floyd cover)

mp3|the shins-australia (peter, bjorn & john remix)

remember to order their album from here.

the hiatus was unnecessary.
but look whats back!?

the always refreshing sunday sounds.
that picture you see up there, its in the same vein as their music and they are an excellent indie-pop band

really good for sundays and coffee and lazing and doin nothin and lightness.
enjoy the two stellar tracks off their album and please purchase it.

its worth every single penny.
