Active Child || “Diamond Heart”
Holy Lord God, why is Pat Grossi so beautiful? Why is everything that comes out of his magical mouth so beautiful? Why is everything that has been touched by his sacred hands so beautiful?

High ResolutionPreview Nils Fram’s Felt on The Hype Machine this week.
Why didn’t anyone tell me Nils Fram was coming out with something new? Also, his album covers always have such beautiful designs.

I LOVE 65DAYSOFSTATIC and I’m so glad this collaboration with The Cure’s singer is getting them a fraction of the attention they deserve.

I love the Album Leaf.

Name: Silverlining
Artist: Go Cozy
Album: Silverlining
[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]
I’ve come to conclusion that Go Cozy, shoe-gazing pop band out of Silver Spring, Maryland can do no wrong. Their ability to produce lush and layered pop gems is tremendous. They also maintain to keep their sound distinguished in a genre where one’s voice can easily drown beneath others. I’m a sucker for jangle guitar licks but what I truly believe is the defining staple in their music are their lyrics; Melancholy but hopeful.
They’ve released this single along with companion track Sage Along My Life (reminiscent of MBV) on bandcamp. Download the rest of their tracks too which I’m sure will get you hooked.

Name: Florence & The Machine - Shake It Out (The Weeknd Remix)[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]
Shake It Out (The Weeknd Remix) by Florence + The Machine.
Next, try Initiation by The Weeknd.
I usually have mixed feelings about The Weeknd’s original music. But despite my reservations about the lyrics, Initiation is such a great sounding song.

Shake It Out || Florence + The Machine
Fourth time I’m blogging about this song but hey, whatever, I can’t be tamed.
Also, why must Florence Welch be so attractive? (Answer: as Kyle says, “because redhead.”)

And every demon wants his pound of flesh
But I like to keep some things to myself
I like to keep my issues strong
It’s always darkest before the dawn
And I’ve been a fool and I’ve been blind
I can never leave the past behind
I can see no way, I can see no way
I’m always dragging that horse around
And our love is pastured such a mournful sound
Tonight I’m gonna bury that horse in the ground
So I like to keep my issues strong
But it’s always darkest before the dawn
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out,
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out,
And it’s hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him off.
do i dare disturb the universe?
