New music is important. Ever since we've all
been surgically attached to our iPods, we're inevitably doomed to
overplay whatever we're listening to. That's why it's important
to keep finding new music. Good new music. Of course you
can always put it on shuffle, but you can only recycle your own
collection so often before it becomes repetitive and stale. You
need something fresh and new.
That's where we come in. Welcome. Browse around. Whether you're
just looking for something good that you've never heard before,
or looking to find out what your favorite artists and bands are
up to, way to go, that's what you've found.

The Hold Steady, who are from Minneapolis but based out of Brooklyn,
released Boys and Girls in America last October. It's worth
checking out. Stand-out tracks include "Citrus", "Hot
Soft Light", and "Massive Nights". Here are some
links, so you can check them out.
