Today in our household Sirius' Alt-Nation has been replaced with Sirius XMU, the basis for which this blog exists. XMU plays the bands that don't get the recognition they deserve but eventually the masses will catch on...about six months down the road. So, when I came home today The Knife's "We Share Our Mothers' Health" was banging through the kitchen and it reminded me of this remix. Epic. Makes me miss my dancing days like no other where it was entirely acceptable to wear baggy pants and g... Read Full Story

I went out for Halloween last night (which I haven't done in four years). No, I didn't dress up. Yes, I did get drunk, thanks for asking. Did I almost fall in the bushes outside my house after getting back from the bar? Why yes, I did - how'd you know that?! And finally, yes Dum-dums do taste nasty with Corona. See Exhibit A:OK, enough ridiculousness and onto the music. I am VERY excited to go see MuteMath this Friday at The Tabernacle in Atlanta. Me Ma's been all about this band for a while ...

So, I posted this song last Sunday and had seen the video thinking I didn't want to do "The Tiny" overload then, but it's been there in the background of everything for the past four days and I can't get it out of my head. This video is SO pretty: the perfect trajectory towards a broken heart and all those lights...ooo, shiny. Read Full Story

I am sick. Being a baby about it but still...so, in cases like this I like to listen to comfort music the way other people pick up a bucket of deep fried chicken from KFC. Esthero is a prime example, all swirly arrangements and simple beats and she makes me happy. Go pick up her "Breath From Another" album and prepare to be astounded.Esthero - Country Livin' (The World I Know) Read Full Story

First, look at this picture. If you don't at least smile there's something wrong with you. Flight Of The Conchords just released their newest album, "I Told You I Was Freaky" and it's awesome in epic proportions. The thing that always amazes me with them is they make me giggle and impress me with their music at the same time. What band does that?!?!

Welcome to another jam-packed "AIAWW" brought to you by one very sad English girl who just sent her marine off to Afghanistan. Four weeks ago I moved to Atlanta thinking I'd be bored and apparently that was a stupid notion seeing as I've just spent the past month going out all the time as well as finishing off my part of Ampersand's Winter Collection...video after the jump.It's been a weird month to be honest. Settling in to a new place, trying to find my way around Atlanta and slowly falling... Read Full Story
