I’m sure you’ve probably already heard that Radiohead announced a new album was coming and then released it in less than a week and it not…they did Their previous album, In Rainbows, isone of my all time favorite albums and I have literally listened to it hundreds of times over the past few years.  The King of Limbs, is their follow up album and it was made available a day early, so I snatched it up as soon as I could.  I am currently enjoying my third listen If you are a Radiohead fan (of course) OR are just a person who can appreciate great conceptual music regardless of personal taste, give it a listen…they definitely deliver.

Here’s “Lotus Flower”, the fifth song on the album.

Yet another artist I found on my The xx, Pandora station.  They’re music makes me dance and smile and just act silly when I listen to them and therefore, they are high on my list of awesome musicians.  Junior Boys music also varies quite a bit a times, but always has bit of keyboard magic and a great beat

Dull To Pause is my favorite track by them…so much so, it’s sort of my anthem or theme song.

In The Morning is also a classic, Junior Boys track…

Enjoy Junior Boys on Cyber Monday

This weeks artist was super easy to pick, as a week ago, I had never heard or heard of them and to date, I have listened to their album 16+ times…according to iTunes that is Young the Giant opened for Neon Trees last Monday and literally from the first note, I was hook…no exaggeration.  To make it even cooler (for me at least) the singer is from Ann Arbor…nice.  Their music just makes sense to me and is so easily enjoyed, at least by my ears.  They are terrific live and have such great energy and perform all of their music beautifully all while having a blast.  I enjoyed them so much, I am going to see them in less than a week, when they’re back in Michigan Have a listen, you won’t be sorry.  Click on the album artwork to purchase the album.

Here is one of my favorite tracks, I Got.

I Got by DustinFrancis

Here’s a video of them performing, My Body, which I believe to be their first single.

Neon Trees are little more mainstream than a lot of what I listen to, but I thoroughly enjoy their album, Habits.  Also, since I am seeing them this evening at the Magic Stick, I thought it would only be natural for them to be my Monday music artist.  The album is fun and has a lot of energy and while I love the two singles, “Animal,” and the recently released, “1983,” “Love and Affection,” is definitely my favorite and the one I like to crank up in the car and sing along with the most.  Habits is definitely a great album to pick up (it’s also only $3.99 right now) if you want some fun, energetic music you can “rock out” to…alone or with friends

Here’s “Love and Affection.” Love And Affection by DustinFrancis
