Structure and Cosmetics

Ahh, what the hell, I keep inadvertantly abandoning this thing. The past few weeks have been busy though, first I was in colorado, then I wasnt, then I had RA training and work and bladdy bladdy boring. Anyways, now that the school year is officially starting up and I am soon to be reunited with my station co-horts regular posting is sure to follow. I've missed posting about quite a few things in the last few weeks so most likely I'll be attempting to do some catch up work for a little while.

So, with that, one of my favorite bands The Brunettes, a great and enthusiastic pop group from new zealand just released a new album called "Structure and Costmetics", and is the bands first release on american label Sub Pop. In my effort to wait to purchase the album on vinyl I hadnt gotten to hear it until yesterday but hot damn is it good! The first song is infectious as hell and brought back memories of when I saw them in Denver a few years ago with Feist and Rilo Kiley. Speaking of, in my efforts to find a post worthy video of the Brunettes, I stumbled upon a clip of said three bands covering "Let My Love Open The Door" which was also a good memory from that night. Enjoy:



In summation its a great band with a wonderful sense of melody and you should give them a try if you havent already. yea. oh and if anyone happens to know whether or not this album is actually on vinyl please let me know cuz I would love to have it!
