Adam Arcuragi - Sin is Just an Old Archery Term

A quick share on this Sunday morning - La Blogotheque has been a favorite of mine, filming their "Take Away Shows" with various artists, in which they film these artists in cabs, stairwells, walking streets, you name it. It makes for great spontaneous moments and interactions with passer-bys and the bands themselves. One of my favorite shows from this website is from Adam Arcuragi, a favorite of ours at the blog. Here is a great version of Adam's song Sin is Just an Old Archery Term, a melancholy song that is filled with rich, anachronistic imagery.


Here's a link to all of the "Takeaway Shows"

Ending the night on a lighter note




While "For Today" is a great song, the lyrics are brutal and it is a rather heartbreaking song for the romantics out there.  I would rather end the night with songs that don't take themselves quite as seriously.  Just call me Mr. Positivity right now. 

I'll leave you with a song from Adam Arcuragi - I am sure that you will hear much more out of him on here in the future.  Arcuragi puts out strong music.  I have not heard one of his songs that were unlistenable to date.  Also, the Christmas tree was dressed today in the house, so the song's title is in the spirit of the holidays.

The last is from Sleigh Bells - you might of heard their awesomely bass-fuzzed out track "Crown on the Ground" around the blogosphere.  They are a band that has been buzzing up a storm on the net.  This is the latest song that I have heard from the noise rock/dance duo and my favorite so far.  It veers from the bass heavy beats of "COTG" and is a really fun song.

Coming up this next week are our best albums and songs of 2009.  Have a good night everybody and we'll see you tomorrow in the same place.
