Spanish Sahara by The Foals: A friend had told me to check out Spanish Sahara by The Foals, so I did. At the beginning of the song I was a little hesitant because it was slower than I expected. Not really sure why I expected it to be more uptempo but I did. While listening to it, I kept saying to myself, "This has got to pick up at some point." And sure enough it did and I love it. Below is the music video for the song.
Black Leaf by The Cave Singers: The Cave Singers are a band that I had heard of before but never listened to their music. Recently I had read on Twitter that they were opening for the Fleet Foxes, a band I love, and that Robin Pecknold, the lead singer of Fleet Foxes, was blown away by their performances. Because of that I had to give The Cave Singers a listen. I listened to the album while working one day, nothing really stood out. I decided to give the album another listen and when I heard Black Leaf something just hit me. Not sure what it was but I loved it. I really like the way the lead singer sounds and enjoy the tempo of the song. Here is the video below.
Orange Sky by Alexi Murdoch: The other night I was watching the movie Away We Go and one of the first things I noticed about it was the music. I immediately did a search to see who it was that was featured in the movie. It happened to be Alexi Murdoch, a singer who I've had on my iPod for years but haven't really listened to him. First thing Monday morning I decided that I must listen to his album. I really enjoyed what I heard but what stood out to me the most on the album was the last song, Orange Sky. The part I enjoyed the most had to be the lyric "In your love, my salvation lies". This lyric is repeated multiple times throughout the song and something about it just gave me chills.
