Song We Like: Yesterday is Dead by Fantomex

<a href="http://fantomex.bandcamp.com/album/dem-s"></a>
Math rock in a digestible form, brought to you by some good looking, aerobically-inclined people from Morganton NC. Just watching their set will give you a workout. (Featured on our #43 podcast.)

Song We Like: Lady Liberty by Dressy Bessy

Songs We Like

<a href="http://dressybessy.bandcamp.com/track/lady-liberty"></a>
A band that does all kinds of rock and roll expression has a Wilson Phillips moment: Big, direct melodies and harmonies get right to the point here. Dressy Bessy has been rocking Denver since 1996. (Featured on our #43 podcast.)

On the road, fakely: John shows off his improvisational skills as we pretend to drive to SXSW. We also feature TWO songs from Wisconsin, math rock, a cowboy song from Northern Ireland, and we break down what your band’s Facebook goals should be.

Sorry, we’re cooler than you because we found this band before you did. Ha. (Featured on our #42 podcast)

Song We Like: Wales by Voodoo

Songs We Like

Our first Costa Rican band brings you a great, great, great song to lie down on the floor to. Not that we’ve tried lying on the floor and listening to it. But if we had, we could attest that it is a nice experience. Set it to repeat and let it last an hour, like it should. (Featured on our #42 podcast)

Song We Like: Obnoxious Gas by The Satanic Togas

Songs We Like

Honestly, having a farty-sound on the song is not enough to make us like it. (Yes we like the farty sound, who wouldn’t. But it’s really good music too.) So much screeching, so much fuzz, so much enthusiasm, so much melody, so much farting. (Featured on our #42 podcast)

This song is indie-indie music. (Indie-indie is a term that we just made up. You’ll know it when you hear it.) And this song right here is the apotheosis of indie-indie music. We adore it. (Featured on our #42 podcast)

Song We Like: Get it On by Pinky Doodle Poodle

Songs We Like

These two Japanese kids are embracing American culture so hard that they spend their whole lives touring around small clubs in the southeast. From what we’ve seen, their show is even better than their sound. Here’s the itunes link to Get it On. Check it out. (Featured on our #42 podcast)
