Nine Minutes of the best new music you'll hear: The Lisbon Maru by Fuck Buttons

You know when you hear a song once, and immediately know that it’s going to be on heavy rotation for a while?

This is one of those songs.

The Lisbon Maru by the fabulously named Fuck Buttons. As it has been lately, credit goes to Jay for this awesome find.

The National - About Today (live) from "The Virginia EP"

My favorite version  of one of my favorite songs. 8:25 minutes of pure, unadulterated awesomeness. Best part comes in at 5:03. Leaves me breathless every time.

“I never loved you,
And if I loved you
I wouldn’t say I’m sorry, oh no.
I stand outside under broken leaves

Always and forever more,
And together getting lonely
I thought I couldn’t do this without you.”

I love Phoenix so much, which you know, since all I do lately is quote their lyrics. But you’ve gotta admit, this song (Rome) is nothing less than phenomenal.

"There Goes the Fear" - The Doves

Clearly, I should have purchased the 500 Days of Summer soundtrack since first “Sweet Disposition” and now this, The Doves’ “There Goes The Fear” are both from that rocktacular album. “There Goes the Fear” is 6:54 of pure brilliance, which sounds like the love child of Local Natives’ “Airplanes” and The Helio Sequence’s “Hallelujah” if something that spectacular could actually happen. And apparently it can.

Heard this Noah and the Whale song last week and originally loved the tune; heard it again today and listened to the lyrics. I find them to be hit or miss with their songs at times, but this one - Blue Skies - as raw and harsh and honest as it is, is right on the mark. Sappy, yes. But I can do sappy now and again. And now.

"Your Love" (Outfield Cover) - Bon Iver

The best version of this I’ve heard. Recorded live at Bon Iver’s last concert (for a while…let’s hope that’s actually the case) at Riverside Theater in Milwaukee on October 11, 2009

Heard this on the latest episode of Gray’s Anatomy - it’s a cover of Kristin Hersch’s ‘Your Ghost’ - and it’s ephemeral and gorgeous. Perfect “cozy fall day sitting by the fire” song. (If only I had a working fireplace…)

If I could I’d fold myself away
Like a card table, a concertina or a murphy bed,
I would. But I wasn’t made that way, so you know
I’ve been soothing my ears & heart lately with some Bon Iver, The Antlers and of course Frightened Rabbit, but I often also turn to the old standby, Ryan Adams. And for some reason this song - Oh My God, Whatever, Etc. - has come up on Pandora and playlists a few times over the past couple of days. As such, here ‘tis.

First heard about this song from Ryan Vance, and haven’t been able to stop listening to it. It reminds me of something…can’t quite place it. HELP ME, INTERNETS…it’s driving me nuts!
