The Rescue

Back again. It's been over a week already! Let's see what I've been cooking for you all.

For starters, I've got this cool remix from a US band called Ra Ra Riot. They did a good job with the song, cause it hasn't become your typical 5234th HiP eLeCtrO DaNceY ReMix FrOm a RocKsOnG track. Well, actually it IS a hip electro dancey remix from a rocksong.. but it's just a really good one, K?

The Twang is an upcoming rock band from the UK that seems to have been hyped some time ago by worldwide feared UK music magazine NME (responsible for many cRaZy hypes, like that nu rave thing they were trying to pull). On The Twang's Last FM page I saw some hate against them, but hey, doesn't really matter cause this is just a good and catchy song.

Next we have an old track from one of our favorite Belgian bands; Tomàn. It seems the West-Flemish Post-rockers were a bit more poppy-minded 4 years ago when they recorded their EP 'Malin Head'. This EP includes a fun little song called 'Thunderbirds' (which is also downloadable on their website) and it's interesting to hear how they have evolved over this relatively short period of time.

Last, a tip: Explosions In The Sky have a free downloadable album (The Rescue) on their website. I know I know, It's been there for a very long time, but I never checked it out cause I thought it would be crappy (for some reason I didn't trust an album that carried songs with names like Day One and Day Two). It's not their best album (has some great moments though), but it's cool to hear cause the songs are under the normal EITS-length so they had to step away from their long building-up-to-a-climax trademark.
