Just some The Knifes, Fever Ray if they can be considered anything like this and also some hip hop remix stuff. Oh yeah! I almost forgot Caribous new album.

Nice that you enjoyed it. I actually consider Rubiks Artturi Tairas vocals really enjoyable. Rubik is one of the few great bands from my home country.

Yeah I suppose The Knife can be considered similar (haven't listened to Fever Ray yet). Haven't heard much Caribou yet though. I listen to a ton of electronic and instrumental hip-hop, so I know some other things along these lines, just curious if you had any specific recos based on the track.

I'd love to see your signature/links too, but the huge and obnoxious ones have caused me to block all signatures.

Really not a fan of the video, for some reason I can tolerate violent/gory videogames but movies just make me queasy. The song was quite enjoyable, though. 7.5/10

folkslave/sidewinder....
i think maybe 'annoyed' was a bit strong...i just felt his inflection was weird...but yeah...actually i really liked the last two songs quite a bit and am looking for the albums now

rvca...
actually yeah the video is straight from a movie called Dead Alive.....and although it works kind of well with the song....i could think of better representations

Haha it's classical music what am I supposed to say? I think there are two instruments--is it two pianos or a piano and some sort of stringed instrument? Yawn.
At least I reviewed it, albeit poorly.

'Lights in Lines' by Tweak Bird
I'm typing my experience with the song as I listen:

Definitely started off with a nice uptempo kick, and I'm in an uptempo mood, so that's already one point in its favor. The vocals begin, and I'm not completely sold, but it's not the worst vocal performance I've ever heard or anything. I notice that the applause emoticon on my reply screen appears to be clapping to the rhythm of the song, and that makes me smile. There's nothing extraordinary happening during the song, but it's still enjoyable and easy to listen to. I'm digging that. Nice guitar riffing, and it's...it's done? I feel a little cheated. It didn't really go anywhere. But it was enjoyable to listen to for the most part...hmm.

7.3/10.0

The Phish fan wanted the song to last longer!?!? Unpossible!

I'm sorry, but I couldn't even get half way through that one.
