Well... I am sorry I didn't post like I was supposed to. My week got crazy-go-crazy.

Today, I'm going to simply keep on going as if nothing happened, though. So...

5 Bands You Should Listen To And Love

1) Hooverphonic:
http://www.hooverphonic.com/
Hooverphonic is a trio from Belgium that plays a very different kind of music. Its not really "pop" but more... "awesome."

The main site's front page currently features three tracks off their upcoming album, The President of the LSD Golf Club. It's a drastic shift from their previous sound, moving into an almost 60s-esque psychedelia-inspired sound. I don't care, however, because - as always - they can do no wrong.

The first single off the album, Expedition Impossible can be viewed on YouTube here:

And I recommend it. Otherwise, here's two other links to two other great tracks from Hooverphonic.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVsqRM-LBP8 -The World is Mine
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_8BfVJFL6g - Day After Day (Live)

Otherwise, if you like what you hear I recommend starting with The Magnificent Tree as an album, otherwise some tracks I'd suggest for download are:
-Green
-Mad About You
-Out of Sight
-Battersea

2) Porcupine Tree
http://myspace.com/porcupinetree
The band is awesome. Check the track "Blackest Eyes" for a wonderful example. Then listen to Trains. Then buy a bunch of their albums.
This video, Piano Lessons, isn't the best song they've ever done, but its a good starter track to listen to if you're a YouTube fan:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9CvxoeasJ2E -Piano Lessons

Give 'em a try. DO IT.

3) Minibosses
http://myspace.com/minibossess
The Minibosses play video game music, but they do it with enough flair that you won't.... (God, here it comes...) ....care.

Here is a video of them playing the Contra theme live.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IsNngmdPiCI -Contra (live)

If you're a nerd and played any NES back in the day... you'll understand why this is awesome.

ADDED BONUS!!!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDXLmNLMGuw -SUPER MARIO BROS. 2 (ignore the guy in the blue shirt...)

4) VAST
http://myspace.com/vast
I saw VAST live awhile back, if you remember (or even read this at all) ... gosh I'm hungry right now... anyhow. Its really one guy named Jon Crosby and he's awesome.

He's so obscure that there's really no "music videos" so I'll just suggest downloading the following:
-A Better Place
-Turqoise
-Here
-Lost

5) Hooverphonic (again)
http://myspace.com/hooverphonic
I love this band. I will never stop pushing them.

Sorry for the really lame post this time. I'm tired and hungry and having a really good weekend.

That is all (tune in tomorrow for 5 of 5 of 5 and the end of the month!)
