catch up on day one and day two.
4. the western civilization <ktru stage @ 12:15pm>
(via myspace)
- interesting tidbit: 2007’s letters of resignation was named one of houston’s best albums of the decade by 29.95.co.
- sounds like: it’s like if conor oberst had a co-ed band and everyone sounded just like him and played the kind of music he plays with mike mogis.
- listen to: “bruise the paper,” “the things we can’t deny” on myspace
5. buxton <dos equis stage @ 12:15pm>
(via myspace)
- interesting tidbit: i’m in love with this.
- sounds like: a more upbeat, southern influenced blind pilot but less than okkervil river
- listen to: “feathers” and “flint“
6. the sour notes <29-95.com stage @ 6:05pm>
(via myspace)
- interesting tidbit: have a song named after a character (leslie burke) from one of my favorite childhood novels, bridge to terabithia
- sounds like: it’s hard to say; they have alot of music out there. some of it sounds like band of horses, and some of it is ra ra riot-y. some of it is way harder and more rocky.
- listen to: “is it happening,” “psychological thriller,” “a cute little ruin.” i also really like “the distant knell” on myspace.
