Sweethead is Intimidating Yet Wonderful
“The Great Disruptors” off Sweethead’s recent album is pretty damn terrific but I must admit the lead singer is so sexy I’m intimidated. She may be able to kick my ass – then again so could Jaleel White.
Open the Cage (the Elephant)
Fabricated disbelief.
Solid Gold’s Matter of Time
Solid… solid as a rock.
Wolfmother’s White Feather Video
This band is so retro cool it’s no wonder they’re hitting the road with AC/DC. Enjoy popsters.
Musical Chairs Never Looked or Sounded So Good
Silversun Pickups are nominated for a Grammy as Best New Artist but I’ve been digging on them for years. Cmon Grammy voters get with the program. Um, but give them the award anyway.

A fun beat, a beard, and horns – what else could you ask for?
Puddle of Mudd Space Suits
Their song “Blurry” can be played over and over to this day, and I still dig it…well except when I remember the video which dealt with some custody issues I think. Anyway, the band is back with “Spaceship,” and it ain’t half bad.
White Denim “I Start To Run”
Try these on.
GENERAL ELEKTRIKS “Take Back The Instant”
It’s catchy… in a very non-swine flu kind of way.

These sisters can do now wrong. I play out their albums and they somehow never seem overplayed. Their latest is “Sainthood,” which arrived this week. Here’s first single “Hell,” which has a little umph to it compared to past efforts but it rocks.
Lissy Trullie – Self-Taught Learner
Lissy Trullie’s album just came out, and it’s just like this song: unique and awesome. Here is the video for “Self Taught Learner.” It’s catchy like swine flu. Too soon?
