Musical Mathematics Comp

Our friends at Musical Mathematics have put together a really great compilation of the current stars of math rock. Featuring some of our favorites like Noumenon, Tera Melos, and Native, as well as some great bands I'd never heard of. Well worth the free download.

Some New Releases

Man, we've gotten so lazy with this thing. Sorry guys. Here's some albums we've been playin lately:

Buke & Gass: "Riposte" (acoustic math punk duo with homemade instruments and kick drum beats)





sweet live performance

Joan of Arc: "Life Like" (simpler, just drums, guitar, and bass and featuring Victor Villareal on second guitar. A great return to form.)

Bibio: "Mind Bokeh" (Not as good as Ambivalence Avenue, but still has good tracks)

As always, please buy any albums that you enjoy. The music industry is dying, and as members of it, we want to believe that people will still support music they love so that it can be a viable, profitable art form just like architecture or film or photography or whatever.

Thanks, and much love,
Sam and Tyler

Frank Ocean- Nostalgia/Ultra

Genre: R&B, rap, indie

I'm not sure I'm on board with all the Odd Future guys, but I'm lovin Frank Ocean's debut. Just as well produced as anything on the radio, and way more thoughtful. Opening up with a Coldplay cover is a bold move, but it's awesome and works. Not sure I dig the closing MGMT cover as much, but the originals in between rule. Check it out if you want to groove.

Chalk Talk/Sirs- Bvvvvvvvvv

Genre: punk, indie

Cool little split from two pretty sweet bands. I love the Chalk Talk cover of "Wouldn't It Be Nice" hahah

Light Skits Twitter!

Last spam post, promise. We have a Twitter now for Light Skits, which I'm sure I could link here somehow but I don't know how. So just search for "Light Skits" if you're into that sort of thing.

Lord Huron- Mighty EP

Genre: folk pop, tropical

I don't really know how to describe this album. it's like if Fang Island was a folk band kinda. And there's some Vampire Weekend in there. I'm sure there's better comparitive bands, but I'm bad at that. Great little folk EP if you wanna be kinda happy, but not too happy.
