Sorry if it's been awhile. Though on the other hand I am pretty sure that I don't have any reader's that are that dedicated. If you are out there, then sorry for doubting you I guess? Anyway as far as I know this will be my last summery song post of the year. Unless I decide to bring summer back later(I totally have the power to do that!). Woo digression! Everyone heard of Belle and Sebastian? Probably/maybe? Well when I first heard of them I thought they would be an intimidating band that would be older, or started awhile ago. Suppose they were more Radiohead like, that might be what I first imagined. So it took me a bit to actually give them a chance, though the wait paid off, in the fact that they are very good. Why take my word for it? Don't. Just watch this great video off their latest album, The Life Pursuit. (The video seems like something straight out of my imagination)

Summery songs-part 3
Hmmm I'm thinking maybe I'll be able to squeeze one more summery post after this one, possibly. Well hey, it's my blog ergo I do what I want, so here summer ends when it is declared over. Back to business. The Little Ones are a band that has promised to only make music that is in some way toe-tappable. An admirable goal, that in my opinion they achieve to the key. They've released two EP's so far, and in October they will be coming out with their first full length album.
One of my favorite songs by them,
Lovers Who Uncover-The Little Ones

Summery songs-part 2
In continuation of this ongoing series which i should finish up before the summer is completely over, I bring you(the viewing audience) Nada Surf. No the name does not make any discernable sense that I am aware of, if you know of it, leave a comment. Nada Surf is a great band that has been around since 1992 when they released High/Low. Off their first album the song "Popular" had acclaimed success. Anywho, in the spirit of summer I thought their song "Blankest Year" would be in order. A song about throwing a party after everything else has gone to shit. Plus the use of projectors in this video is very cool.
