Jesse Ruins is kinda like M83 - but from Japan. Cool stuff.

Altmodisch is crazy good indie / electronica (like The Postal Service with more punk influences) from Copenhagen. Awesome band

Jesse Ruins is too good. "Sofija" was such a great track that I just had to buy the record.
Also has the DIIV record leaked? Or are you just listening to their past singles? And mad props for repping two great Captured Tracks bands.

So I guess Make Do and Mend leaked? Curious to see the internet public-at-large's reaction to it. Probably top 5 for me for sure.

Constants - If Tomorrow the War

They have a new album coming out pretty soon, but I recently realized I hadn't even checked out their last one from 2010. Not bad. Fuzzy post-metal/rock with electronic tinges and some unusually scrappy melody to it. Like the Mercury Program meets Isis meets some respectable version of a "classic" Rise band or something.

Also, Driveway. Potential heirs to emo's throne, and one of Ireland's better (only?) punk exports.

Totally agree. So sad they called it quits.

Captured Tracks <3 <3
and yeah, DIIV leaked. I ordered that limited edition LP mid-way through "Air Conditioning". It's so great

But what is Jake Denning listening to?

Happy Birthday to my favorite record of all time:

The new Motion City album is amazing. Definitely a different record for them but I love it. Everyone Will Die, and Happy Anniversary are 2 of my favorite songs of the year.

The new Metric album is pretty great as well.

Best live bands I've ever seen, especially back to back. Insanity.

Finally got into this album:


Also, Charlie Parker:
