Ok, upon first listen, I thought this was quite good, until I read the pitchfork review a couple minutes ago. Not that I completely allow critics to form my opinions. But I probably should listen to albums more than once before posting it here. Oh hey, 8/10 rating on popmatters review. And yeah, what he said: you would think that this is another americana/indie-folk band, but they're from west London. Also, some Christian themes in the lyrics. Which could be tiring after a bit, actually.

Blalock's Indie Rock Playlist

Like indie music but don't have time to frequent pitchfork, blogs, hype machine, or scour your town's small indie record shop for new bands?

Solution: Blalock's Indie Rock Playlist.

100+ songs every month.

I'm still catching up on September's playlist. Kind of hard when I'm listening on my iPod, sometime I switch genres, then when I come back to indie rock I don't remember where on the playlist I stopped at.

Not posting the playlist here, way too long. But it includes new Why?. Karen O, Mutemath, Elvis Perkins + much much more.
