Just discovered a new band

[Platypus]

Check this compilation out...

Apparently their whole catalog is free to download!?!?

Charts and Maps so far has grabbed my attention. Some other tracks have promise also. I need to explore the site more, and see what their angle is. This works great for me because my money situation is crap right now, but I'd like to send some money their way when my finances get better. I like supporting artists who do something other than industry cookie cutter, and are free with with their music.

Yeah all of their stuff is free to download, they have some gems in there every once in awhile!

Did not like. Too boring. Didnt not develope. Kind of lounge or chill music but doesnt work alone.

 

[UglyCasanova]

GY!BE is cool. Really got into them back in high school when they released F# A# (Infinity). Storm off Lift Your Skinny Fist is my favorite. I never really listen to them anymore, but occasionally I'll get drunk and play something of theirs.

If you like them you would probably enjoy Mogwai as well. Both are dark and moody post rock, but Mogwai does it sooooo much better. Either band is great however. Also try Do Make Say Think. There are many many post rock bands out there, but most aren't worth a listen.
