This one is best watched full screen. Lots of sci-fi effects and laser beams. Woo hoo! It's a lot of fun and the compositor did an amazing job.... and I dig The Bravery.I hate that AOL makes you watch a full commercial before the video. Seriously annoying. I'd link somewhere else but AOL has the premiere up today. Boo hoo.--------------------------------------------------------Visit the MaxBump...

I follow Curt Smith of Tears for Fears on Twitter (@curtsmith) and he said Pomplamoose was his favorite new band. Pamplamoose consists of Jack Conte and Nataly Dawn. Nataly's vocals are fantastic. Jack seems to do all of the instrumentation. Original stuff. What's not to like?! What do you think?Here's Nature Boy, a song made famous by Nat King Cole. Gorgeous.

For Chicago band I Fight Dragons, saving the world--and sounding great--is all in a day’s work. This week I caught up with lead singer Brian Mazzaferri, who explains the band’s mix of pop-rock and sweeping electronic melodies--those cute beeps and bloops from old video games.“When I heard the distinctive waveforms and patterns of the NES soundcard growing up, it was always associated with ad

The band is rockin with a bit of a psychedelic sound. I might make comparisons to Oasis, but a bit harder. Jet? They do have their own sound. I quite enjoyed them. The band is Lead by Dhani Harrison, son of a Beatle.

Just caught Manchester Orchestras set. They sounded phenomenal. I was very impressed with singer Andy Hulls voice, strong and clear, sometimes gritty.
