This week, we're looking to profile some of our favorite Brooklyn-based bands. As the current hub of indie music, Brooklyn has become a vibrant and ambition collection of artists. Many perform together, listen to each other's music and take cues from innovations they may develop. It's a true music scene, and it's just getting bigger and better each day. You're no doubt aware of all of these bands, but we think this list still serves a purpose. Check it out below.
I hate Twilight. Check that. I LOATHE Twilight. So when I heard that some of my favorite artists (i.e.- Thom Yorke and Grizzly Bear) were contributing to the second movie's soundtrack, it irked me to no end. Alas, we're now hearing some of these songs, and they're actually okay... as long as you keep the images of overly-romanticized, overly-hyped vampires out of your heads.
Anyway, if you head over to Stereogum, you can check out three of the tracks on the upcoming (groan) Twilight Saga (Editor's Note: fail)New Moon soundtrack, out October 20th, via Atlantic. Among them are Thom Yorke's techno-riffic "Hearing Damage," Grizzly Bear's airy and hollow melody "Slow Life," featuring Beach House's Victoria Legrand; and the equally haunting "Rosyln," by Bon Iver and St. Vincent.
