Internet Forever — Break Bones

Just a damn fine song. The tagline on the band's MySpace reads “good at songs, bad at fidelity,” which about sums it up. They really are good at songs. And, while the fidelity isn't great, it isn't distracting, either. Some of these lo-fi acts remind me of Ally Sheedy in The Breakfast Club, you know? She was totally beautiful, but maybe not very confident, so she kind of hid behind her baggy clothes and crazy hair and then Molly Ringwald came along and made her look like a prom queen. Internet Forever, though, are great just the way they are. Besides, Ally Sheedy was totally out of my league after Molly Ringwald got done with her. Internet Forever MySpace.

Spectrals — Leave Me Be

A pleasantly chugging song, with nice boom-y drums. If I knew anything about music production, maybe I'd be able to say something intelligent about that, because I really like the way this song is recorded. It has a kind of flat, echoing quality to it and the guitar sounds great. Spectrals MySpace.
