The 1975 - Chocolate

   I didn't think that The 1975 would be this popular this early into their career, they've almost reached one-million views on their single Chocolate from their EP Music For Cars. I shared their song Sex earlier this month also, these guys are going to be huge!

Two Door Cinema Club - Next Year

   TDCC are a band i found back in 2010 and I knew instantly that they would be big, and they've deserved it. I am sharing their latest single Next Year. The music video is of their gig in the O2 Dublin, which I was at! They were outstanding and their success was shown by how they managed to sell out a venue of its size. I was at their gig in the Olympia Theatre a few years before and you can see how far they've come!

Passion Pit upload video for Cry Like A Ghost

   One of my favourite bands, Passion Pit, uploaded the official video for their Gossamer track Cry Like A Ghost. This is another incredible track off their very underrated second album, furthering my opinion that the follow up to their very successful debut album, Manners, Gossamer has been very harshly criticized.

The Shins - Simple Song

   I am a huge fan of The Shins, their song Simple Song was one of my favourites just over a year ago. It is truly a brilliant song and has deserved the popularity it has recieved in the last year.

Foxes - The Unknown

   A very catchy song.

Float Fall - Someday

   Float Fall have released new track Someday, and it is a beautiful, calm song. Well worth a listen.

Embers - Part Of The Echoes

   Embers are a band that I can't hype any more than I have been for the last three months. I am sharing their epic song Part Of The Echoes, even though I know that another one of their songs is an absolute MASTERPIECE. It is the perfect song in my opinion, but I wan't to wait until this blog has a few more viewers (optimistically) before sharing it because it deserves as large an audience as possible. When I first heard Embers I knew that I had found something special, they immediately replaced the late WU LYF as my favourite Manchester band. Part Of The Echoes is an incredible song and I am sure you will enjoy it. They appear to be masters at capturing a sort of angelic element to their incredibly epic music. This is a live record of Embers playing in a church. Enjoy!

Arcade Fire - No Cars Go

   Arcade Fire are a band with a lot of very good songs, No Cars Go is not an exception. It is a truly beautiful, epic song.

Holy Esque - Tear

   Holy Esque are another band showing a lot of promise. I am a huge fan of their track Tear. These are ones for the future, check them out.

Bloc Party - So Here We Are

   Words cannot describe how much I love Bloc Party! They can't seem to make a bad song and they have so many incredibly good songs. I can never decide what my favourite Bloc Party song is but it might be So Here We Are at the moment, but it is sure to change soon enough. I seen them live in the Olympia Theatre Dublin a few weeks ago and it was the best gig of my life (that is where the photo was taken^). They opened with this song, and as usual, everything they did was just incredible.

M83 - Steve McQueen

   I've been a fan of M83 for over a year now and some of their songs have been annoyingly overplayed. Steve McQueen is my current favourite M83 song mainly because it doesn't annoy me yet. It truly is an epic song and deserves the same amount of popularity Midnight City has received.

Peace - Wraith

   Peace are a band with a lot of hype surrounding them. I have only listened to them a couple of times, I am yet to completely fall in love with this band, but they show a lot of promise. I reckon these guys will make it though, it's worth checking them out.

CHVRCHES - The Mother We Share

   Because everyone loves finding a new song they instantly fall in love with; The Mother We Share is exactly that. CHVRCHES are a band from Scotland who I got to see live over Halloween 2012, and they didn't disappoint. They are truly amazing live and I feel as if they are starting to receive the credit they deserve in the world of music. If you like this I would recommend looking at some of their other stuff!

Coasts - Oceans

   In order to celebrate the release of Coasts' debut EP "Paradise", I am sharing their song Oceans. Coasts are a band who have impressed me to date and I am really enjoying their EP. I look forward to hearing a lot more from these.

Wild Beasts - Albatross

   A truly beautiful song! The soothing music and vocals steadily builds impressively until the song reaches its astonishing climax. A song I always seem to listen to when I just want to relax.

Vampire Weekend - New Tracks!

   I've been waiting eagerly for Vampire Weekend to release new songs, I've been a huge fan since their first album Vampire Weekend, and their second album Contra didn't disappoint! Two tracks off their new album "Modern Vampires Of The City", which is due out in May, were released yesterday. I am a fan of both to be fair, but more so Step. I enjoy the vocals in this song greatly and the music is catchy.  However, without being harsh, I think the computer effects used on the vocals in Diane Young make Ezra sound almost like a swagged out Elvis... Even still you have to respect that Vampire Weekend are trying something new, and after a few listens I actually found it quite catchy. I'm looking forward to the album and seeing another one of my favourite bands live in July!
