One of my favorite 2011 trends is that indie-folk bands are becoming more melodic. With full respect to our bearded buddies, I lamented that there were so many people with “long beards and no hooks”. Hooks are good, and I’m all for talented artists reaching more people. Rhode Island’s Deer-Tick are the latest example. Two listens to “Miss K”, and I was hooked.
Kudos to the B3Sci dudes for leading the blogosphere on The Raveonettes’ “Oh, Stranger”. It’s killer and if it weren’t already posted here, I’d have a tough call for this week’s Fave. Contributed by Bruce Rave
