Question:
Why is Jack Johnson headlining the Outside Lands, Coachella and Bonnaroo festivals?
Answer:
I have no god damn fucking clue. This fact is merely the tip of what has been an abysmal last two weeks in terms of finding new music. Aside from the fact that this douchebag's music makes me want to tear off my own ears and feed them to my neighbor's cat, it represents a shockingly popular trend in music. I thought we were done with light rock! Didn't we learn our lesson with Dave Matthews and Hootie and the Blowfish? Isn't even a single second of soul-less filler muzaq way way too much? Nope. I Guess not, because Ben Harper is on most of these same lineups and he's just as lame. I completely understand wanting to smoke pounds of pot and impress your girlfriend with your crappy songs. She's going to fuck you anyway and its kind of cute when you try to be all 'artsy'. It stops being cute and becomes my problem when someone hands you a record contract and you start showing up on the same bill as Radiohead and Beck. For fucks-sake!

OK. So Operation Ivy isn't new (or even playing anymore) but its probably new to you and they're the perfect antidote to the creeping plague of lite-rock that seems to be so popular lately. Dust off your Doc Martins and get ready to dance....

Cute. Punk. Catchy. French. Modestly crafted.
Bitmap - Hot Brains >> http://www.savefile.com/files/1484705
This reminds me of a Beck impression of a Monkees song. I like the name too. Suprisingly hi-fi and indy for a name like 'Bitmap'.
Radiohead - The Headmaster Ritual >> http://www.savefile.com/files/1484707
A Radiohead version of the classic Smiths song.
