Beats: An old movie with a great soundtrack

A movie that I will watch over and over again is Stealing Beauty with Liv Tyler.  The movie takes place in Italy.  The soundtrack is amazing:  Portishead, Mazzy Star, Liz Phair, Cocteau Twins, Hooverphonics, Hole.  It’s sweet and innocent with the pressure at 19 to lose innocence.  There is so much about the movie I [...]

Muse recently came out with their fifth album The Resistance.  While they have always had a bit of an Arena rock sound this new album has back up singing that makes me feel like I’m listening to old Queen in a fabulous new way.  This album is full of falsetto and vibratto that you associate [...]

Beats: Sunset Rubdown

I am really liking the Album Dragonslayer by Sunset Rubdown. Here is a great song off the album. This is a solo project for Spencer Krug of Wolf Parade and other members from other Canadian Bands. It reminds me a little of Arcade Fire and is just so much fun to listen to.
