There are certain bands that just seem to meet you where your at in life. In 2009, Miike Snow was exactly what I needed. Their dark brand of experimental electronic indie rock picked up where bands such as Keane & Justice left off. On Sunday, I made the solo trek to LA's El Rey to see them for the second time. Let me tell you, it was very worth it!

Carney
For me, this year has been a relatively quiet when it comes to discovering new music. That is, until I overheard a discussion at work of a band called, Carney. After one listen of their new album Mr. Green: Volume 1, I was hooked. Blending the blues, jazz, and classic rock 'n roll, these guys show off their talents in every song. Adding to the band's lore, lead singer Reeve Carney, was actually chosen to play Peter Parker in the Broadway production of Spider-man that was composed by U2's Bono & the Edge. With those credits, it will be hard to ignore Carney in the months and years to come. If you like real music played by real musicians then Carney is for you.
