YT//ST - Yamantaka//Sonic Titan [psychedlic rock/experimental art]

A beautiful album yes yes. Canadian experimental and performance art collective with an album that sinks deep into the ocean. Anthemic waves of sound and voices turning over and over itself, a smooth and well-formed expression of subtle things and just-out-of-sight things; a packaged pulse that opens up like a flower, but then seals itself as if being clogged. Would like to listen to this album tumbling down from the stratosphere.

Favorite songs: Queens, Reverse Crystal // Murder of a Spider, Hoshi Neko

Dirty Projectors' Film "Hi Custodian" (Indie Rock)

You're really missing out on some good stuff if you've never heard the Dirty Projectors before. Led musically by singer and guitarist David Longstreth, the indie band consists of three female vocalists (two of which play guitar and keyboards), a drummer, and a bassist. And let me tell you, these girls have some truly angelic voices; coupled with David's uncanny musical prowess, Dirty Projectors provides unique harmonic structure, metric modulation, vocal polyphony, and is my favorite indie rock band.

"Hi Custodian" is a Dirty Projectors film directed by David himself that features the Dirty P's upcoming album Swing Lo Magellan. They released a preview for such a movie through PitchforkTV's Youtube page, and they will premier the movie through that page as well. Check out the teaser below:

Comus - First Utterance (Progressive Rock)

So Comus is a pretty cool "British progressive rock/folk" band (if you're into the Wikipedia symantics). Within you will find a theremin, acoustic guitar, mindblowing female and male vocals, bongos, a violin, mandolin, flute, and a handful of other instruments. It's one of those rare musical experiences where you can't discern when the album was made because the music is timeless, unique, and transcends genres. Other then that I don't have a lot of words for the album besides that it is relatively strange and dissonant at times, but it's great for expanding your musical horizons.
