Saturday Music Roundup
Our new favorite band is the peppy, poppy, very fun Los Abandoned. Their lyrics are a mix of Spanish and English, and song themes are wacky and fun, inciting us to (after some alcohol) jump around playing air guitar in the apartment. Sample lyrics: "en Van Nuys there's porno starts, and swap meets...Van Nuys es very nice, but it's not paradise..." and "¿donde esta mi pantalón" (can someone who speaks Spanish explain why that's singular?). There are songs about stalking, songs almost entirely in Spanish with a "be-atch" thrown in for fun, and songs mostly in English. Titles include "office xmas party", "nada mío es fake" and "panic-oh." It's very happy music. The lyrics are great, too. There are some videos on the site if you're interested.
Another favorite album for us this year has been Nic Armstrong's Greatest White Liar. Love that stuff. Also loving The Flaming Lips, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, The New Pornographers, and Franz Ferdinand
