geology and tumbling motion

(rock n roll) You already know what this genre's all about! It's a broad one, so I’ll be focussing in on just what has an atmospheric, smooth, smoked-out sound — nothing too intense or emotional (no Emo!), just enough to get you up and moving, without taking off your sunglasses.

A band perfectly befitting the above description is Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. Don’t worry about the name - they don’t sell drugs to your kids or beat up rival bands with tire irons (that i know of, anyway). They’re just a cool, cool, cool cool band that is too cool, much much too cool. Very languorous vocals, like a down-pitched-shifted Noel Gallagher, meld into the hypnotic, trance-like repetitive rock. It verges on classic punk at times, it falls into the stoner rock category at times, and, more recently, they've taken an all-but-total blues-rock sound, but at most times BRMC are an original experience that I cannot recommend highly enough. Enjoy Take Them On, On Your Own. (This one you can find easily, at amazon.com or hmv or wherever...)

Check out the MV for 'Love Burns' at Stage6. Or, the extremely catchy, you-will-love-this-instantly song Stop.And don't complain if you have to dl the divx web player, its extremely small and installs instantly. PS: I'm currently figuring out how to embed divx videos, like the flash ones in other posts. ^^

a very cool band is called The Dandy Warhols. like me, you may remember their hit from the 90s, ‘Not If You Were The Last Junkie On Earth.’ Yeah, that song was cool, but if you were to go by radio-hits alone, that would make tDWs a one-hit wonder. You'd also believe they were a generally happy, upbeat band. Not true. They continue to kick ass in ultra-subdued style with their melt-rock sound which is universally perceptible as ‘totally cool, dude.’ Odditorium or The Warlords of Mars. Now, get a band shirt and see them live!!!

Preview their song 'Godless' at Veoh (which has youtube quality, but presents it larger and offers a download button, so its an improvement).
