You Might Think Me Queer, But THIS Is What's In MY EAR!!

I like to keep you guys posted on things that keep my life moving...MUSIC definitely has a huge influence on my life and I think for all of us sometimes that ONE song can just GET US THROUGH! We all have different soundtracks of our lives, and as we change, so does the track listing. Currently, there are a few artists that I have on current rotation in my iPOD and I'm pretty sure they will have permanent spots. My SOUNDS OF THE MOMENT ARE: THE MATCHES, MGMT, BOYS LIKE GIRLS, && THE COOL KIDS!!!!!!!!!!!!
I couldn't even begin to tell you how much I am loving these particular artists right now! THE MATCHES is a Oakland, CA formed group group who have made a definite impact on the Cali music scene with a unique punk/alternative sound that is akwardly infectious! Gotta love em. MGMT is a Brooklyn, NY based duo. Their electronic-rock tunes each have some element from a different genre in them, making their style hard to put a finger on. No wonder Rolling Stone named them as one of their Top 10 "Artists To Watch" in 2008. BOYS LIKE GIRLS is a Boston-based group whose radio-friendly pop rock sound has made a major BANG recently. Listing influences as Jimmy Eat World, Blink-182, Story of the Year, Relient K, The Academy Is..., Kelena, and Dashboard Confessional, the four-piece group has created their own sound by adding a new style of vocals. And now for the COOL KIDS! This crazy insane hip-hop duo hailing from Detroit and Chicago have brought something completely NEW && FRESH to the table and I for one am STARVING!! They started off with the intention of just making beats for some of the top artists, but soon realized their own vocals fit best over the music. Now able to say they have worked with artists such as Lil Wayne (track called "Gettin It"), the crazy, COOL KIDS are well on their way.
Seriously, please check out ALL of these AMAZING groups! They are definitely worth a listen!
