celebration post II

when i heard about celebration putting out another album i had the feeling of what it was like having a roni. so very sweet.



celebration - the modern tribe

celebration

is like yeah yeah yeahs plus TV on the radio. rad!
i actually bought this without knowing anything about the band. listened to 30 seconds of track one and thought it was garbage. but track 2 through the rest of the album is wonderfulness.
moral of the story: skip track 1.. yuk



celebration - celebration

Department of Eagles

i didn't know this until yesterday, but Daniel Rossen (grizzly bear) and college roommate, Fred Nicolaus, have a band together... and it also has an animal in the name.
their debut, 'the cold nose', was originally released in 1995, then released again last year with more songs. i only have the 1995 release... but i do have a few recent demo songs that should start some hype for their next release.

evangelicals

josh jones (of evangelicals) described 'The Evening Descends' like a meeting between marvin gaye and the rocky horror picture show.
my description: if evangelicals was a smoothie, it would taste like celebration, blonde redhead, and pears.
