MP3: The Dead Weather – So Far From Your Weapon

-

The Temper Trap album Conditions (August 2009) has been playing in my car non stop since my friend gave it to me a couple of weeks ago. The band’s official website has the album coming out in August of 2009 but I think it leaked on the internet last month because a lot of people already have it. The only thing available in iTunes right now is the single. Check out as much as you can on the internet until you can get the whole album.  This is another great one.

Every month I like to check out the KCRW DJ picks of the month at KCRW.com.  The DJs always have great choices and occasionally they pick an album from a group I’ve never heard of.  Black Moth Super Rainbow is one of these groups and they’re latest album, Eating Us (May 2009), is the band’s fourth full length release.  The sound is pretty unique but if I had to describe it I would say it’s like Air meets Boards of Canada.  Now I need to go back and listen to the older material.

Interesting album cover art…-
