New Songs for a Real Hero

New band found from band I currently like:
James Husband

Makes music that my Pandora associates with Kurt Vile. But actually more akin to a Beatles melodies played solo.
His story according to the internet:

• (According to Wikipedia) Instrumentalist from Of Montreal
• (James Husband Blog)
• (Of Montreal Blog) Headed out for a short tour with Of Montreal. I think we call that synergy.

Good stuff though, although still not as clear, and idiosyncratic as Kurt's of course.

Pop-Top heavy pop sensibilities, that diverge from the recent resurgence of the heavier more bombastic pop-songs. Think, if you must, a country influence indie-pop band from DeKalb, IL (any of them will do). So far, they sound too precious to go the distance. But I've been able to do stochastic (and this post) with them in the background, so the near future seems bright for them!

So far the Valerie collective have succeeded in producing gems that haven't seemed to catch in the States.

Think the 80s. Or at least what people born during the 80's think of the 80's.
With the release of the album Secret Diary and the EP Teenage Color; lovers of moogs, roland beats, and the coldness of inclement economic activity (80's had a big recession, never thought of that did you? Just kidding, the two recessions are totally different.)

New Release: A Real Hero--find it on the internet (if you're here, you probably can)
Why I love it? Because of tautological statements like: A Real Human Being/And A Real Hero

But here's a a new video:
