Gamepad sounds like a spanish chiptune Blink 182

Underwater Tiger are amazing, at times reminds me of Spitalfield with more of an atmospheric sound. Check out the song "Bones" on youtube.

They're definitely worth checking out. Extremely talented for how old they are.

Statler: You should change your address
Waldorf: Definitely. Since all you're receiving is junk mail.

Ooooh oh oh oh oh ho hoo hh!!!!!!!!!!!!

Definitely check out the Gatherer EP.

Couteaux have teamed up with www.sceneessence.com to exclusively debut a new track entitled 'Cease Fire'. The track is taken from their forthcoming EP 'Sail West to Reach the East'. Head on over to http://sceneessence.com/?p=2042 to stream the new track, and also be sure to show them some love at www.facebook.com/couteauxmusic

I'm halfway through a Marina City song and the lead singer reminds me a lot of Ryan Wickard of Take Cover...I'm liking it

I saw Cheers Elephant this weekend. Pretty solid rock band, really digging Falling Out by them.

underwater tiger are sooooo good. can someone review their album? its amazing

Letters (Cliff Letters) is an EP I recorded for my ex-girlfriend with suicidal depression over a period of about 4 days on my phone. Pretty lo-fi, but I would definitely appreciate feedback.

Definitely check out Midnight Fission by A Censored Sunlight. He's fourteen and writes all the music and lyrics himself- definitely worth hearing.

Really feeling that Advice from a Caterpillar album. Cheered me up an awful lot.

Also liking Jared Grabb and Cliff Letters, a bit weird, but likeable.

These 3 all deserve a review.
