Lovely Background Music

When I was 12, and a super annoying pre-teen, I always wanted to have a myspace and stuff. My favorite part about it was that you could add fancy backgrounds and music to it! Of course, I really don't want a Myspace now, considering that it's filled with people who may possibly come and rape me..... ANYWAYS, I realized that since I've been listening to a lot of new bands recently, that it'd be a good idea to share some of my findings with everyone! It was a long and tedious search for the right player, but I found this little bear off of a link I found on Google. I figured it would be perfect due to my lovely co-blogger, Bear Shiny (Since she's a bear and all....)! I put up four songs on the player, which you probably can't see because the words on the bear's boombox are so tiny! The four songs are....

1. Elephant Gun- Beirut
2. Heads will Roll- Yeah Yeah Yeahs
3. Yankee Bayonet- The Decemberists
4. Deadbeat Summer- Neon Indian

I love Beirut so much! It's so difficult to classify their music into a specific genre! I love their incorporation of unique instruments into one super killer song! Yeah Yeah Yeahs are pretty well known, but I really adore Karen O, the singer of the group! I really like the rock elements added into their music, but they still make each song sound different; I have a monotony problem with a lot of bands. I found The Decemberists while looking at some Beirut stuff, actually. I love a lot of their accoustic songs and the lyrics are always really good! Neon Indian is more of an electronic band from New York that I discovered while reading Nylon! I usually don't listen to too much electronic music, besides Crystal Castles, but they're actually really good!

The amazing cover to a Neon Indian album!

 If you have any more ideas for background blog songs, we'd love to hear them! Leave us a comment!
