6. MGMT, There seems to be some debate over whether their name means “management” or not. I really like the keyboard in this track and more people should wear capes.
5. Black Mountain, These guys are Canadian (always a good thing) and this video is bits of Wim Wenders “Wings of Desire”, which is a fantastic movie.
4. Dirty on Purpose, This is the music that you should hear at the end of a lengthy pub session, it gives you that energy to stumble home happy. Pretty slick video too.
3. Dead Meadow, I still can’t believe “stoner rock” is now a category that music writers use, but this fits that label. Watch for the hippy drummer in overalls without a shirt. Classic.
2. Sam Amidon, This guy is so much like Nick Drake, if Nick had been a hillbilly cartoonist from Vermont. This is such a ridiculously pretty song and a cool video to boot. Screw the prairies.
1. Heavy Trash, Jon Spencer is back! He’s changed his sound a little, but he is still rocking the house. Rockabilly blues yo!
