Chad VanGaalen "Mini TVs"

Chad VanGaalen, weirdest voice ever. A bit like Neil Young.

Neutral Milk Hotel "Two-Headed Boy Part 2"

Ted, a friend very dear to me played me this song one warm summer's evening. I remember he glowed about it so lovingly from big things like the lyrics to the tiny detail of the guitar being put down in the last few seconds of the song. Listen close in the first bit, the brilliant Julian Koster plays a mean singing saw.



I really think Brand New copied Netural Milk's guitar put down in  "Play Crack in the Sky."

Matt McCormick 'Some Days Are Better Than Others,' Eluvium

Temporary Residence artist Eluvium. This tune titled "Some Days Are Better Than Others" reminds me a lot of Do Make Say Think's "Chinatown."

Zee Avi "Honey Bee"

Gosh, I love youtube fame. Great little tune:

Sounds a bit familiar, no?
