Hola. Conor Oberst, Fleet Foxes on 7" and The Vaselines provide the unusual lineup of releases for Cinco de Mayo. Those artists do interest us, but a group from Vagrant Records gets us the most.
Vagrant Records is a label that might take a while to get into. From Appleseed Cast to Thrice to French Kicks, the quality of artists definitely speaks for themselves and in turn do the label justice. This week, Electric Owls should turn heads and produce smiles from everyone at the table with their album Ain't Too Bright. We're pretty new to them, so give their song "Two Stories" a listen and let us know what's up.
For Conor Oberst and the Mystic Valley Band, no introduction is needed. Outer South is the second album in less than a year for the talented man from Nebraska, yet the buzz remains. The site has a few better than average videos on it that are worth watching to get in the right mindset.
From Sub Pop, The Vaselines provide a rough sound much like The Pains of Being Pure at Heart, yet one carries a UK (TPOBPAH) feel while the other has the Scot's tatt all over it. Also from the label, Fleet Foxes have their 7" of "Mykonos" and "False Knight on the Road". Head here to buy.
Stay tuned for summer tour schedules from some of our most recommended artists to see live.
