Lunchtime WalkTunes: Week 48
Lately I’ve been going for a 45 minute walk each lunchtime while I listen to an album. In the spirit of Twelve Major Chords’ One Sentence Reviews, here’s what I have got through so far:
Mon: Owl City - Ocean Eyes
People keep comparing these guys to the Postal Service, but this just has a way more auto-tuned pop feel to it.
Tues: Jeffrey Lewis and The Junkyard - Em Are I
Jeffrey may be straying from his raw, anti-folk roots but he still manages to write clever, catchy indie rock tunes.
Wed: Lights - The Listening
Canada has it’s answer to Kylie - if Kylie couldn’t choose between electro pop and indie that is.
Thurs: Laura Veirs - July Flame
I’d be surprised if anyone referred to this as Laura’s strongest release - it’s really just more of the same.
Fri: Girls - Album
This album + deck chairs + Beefeater 24 and tonic with cucumber = #radsummer.
Live on the roof of Dublab in Silverlake, California; Why? perform a stripped down version of The Vowels Pt 2.
i sleep on my back cause it’s good for the spine anddddddddddddd coffin rehearsal
Yoni Wolf of Why? on Fatalist Palmistry
RAED - You Gotta Love This City
I can deal with the fact that dude can’t rap in time over his own beat. But surely he would notice it too - how hard would it be to change the beat so his rhymes sounded in time?
