We Gotta Stay Positive

A TWBM Wallpaper Inspired by

The Hold Steady rocked my socks off at the Beachland Ballroom last week. The energy of the band is incredible. They manage to be a fresh but classic sound without any pretense – a remarkable feat in music today. And Craig Finn’s austistically enthusiastic performance is infectious. This is a little wallpaper inspired by the lights and dance floor of the Beachland. There’s also a track off the band’s new album coming out in May, for your enjoyment.

Ambling Alp

Rocking a ramshackle assortment of world beats, analog synths, dance pop grooves, a boxing history lesson, and We-are-the-Champions-style underdog motivational verve, this track off Yeasayer’s latest album, “Odd Blood” is irresistible. Throw in the fact that my first son is just over a month old and I’m brimming with plenty of fatherly pride and humility – well, Ambling Alp can’t miss.

Also, be sure to check out their trippy video for O.N.E.

Why not put gig posters on your computer? I’ll be dropping band-inspired wallpapers here from time to time, so look out for your favorite artist. The first wallpaper is just a simple one featuring the site’s new best friend, Laszlo the Tiger. Grab the right image for your desktop below:

Vitreous Detachment

This is a couple years old, but I’ve been listening to it a lot lately. You might describe Origamibiro as electroacoustic – an oxymoron that makes sense once you give the track a listen. His work is best summed up by a recent twitter post he made: Do we make an unconscious association between the crackle of a vinyl record and the crackle of a wood fire?

Hindsight

Here’s a track of the upcoming album from one of my favorite bands. Built to Spill, known for epic, spacey guitar rock brings a little country to the sound. It’s like the gray hair that’s finding a way into their beards is also weaving its way into their music.

Just got home from seeing these guys live tonight. They couldn’t be playing any better. For a band that has struggled a little with being the center of attention, a little age, a little less concern, suits them well. They’ve never seemed so comfortable. Or rocked so hard.
