Hey!  I've got a new Ghostland Observatory remix available for download over at Austin Sound.  I'm actually beginning to wonder a bit if the duo settled for something that's essentially just a different version of Paparazzi Lightning, but that could be nothing more than my brain working overtime.  Check out the post here.  On an equally interesting note, today I'm sharing Tapes N' Tapes' new single from their upcoming full length, Walk It Off.  The album is one of the few due out in the coming months that has an incredibly huge sticker slapped on it that reads "potential sophomore slump," and I think the reaction to the disc will be almost as interesting as the songs that are set to occupy it.  Fortunately for the band, the gem below is definitely a good start.  Enjoy.

:Tapes 'N Tapes - Hang Them All:  I don't know why but I was under the impression that the band would maybe try to tone it down and simplify things.  Wrong.  Or, at least that's how I feel when I listen to this song and its odd rhythm, curious guitar work and inspired vocals.  It's actually looking more like they'll deliver something bigger and more grand than anyone imagined.  Snazzy.

Somehow I've never actually seen this video that was made for Insistor, which is honestly rather hard to believe considering that the song is probably my favorite off of The Loon.  Weird.
