As you may have already
noticed, the XML Feed now contains the full post instead of just the intro.
Unfortunately though, there appears to be a Youtube issue where the videos
disappear in some readers but show up in others. If you know what the
deal is then please email me! Now, let's move onto Colour Revolt and
their upcoming album, Plunder, Beg And Curse. I only vaguely
remember their self titled EP that was put out in 2006, but it's nice
anyways to see them making a return with looks to be a really nice set of
indie rock gems. Expect to see it delivered to store shelves by Fat
Possum Records (also home to the Black Keys, Fiery Furnaces and Townes Van
Zandt) on the grand day of them all, April 1. Enjoy.

Revolt - Naked And Red:
"Eden is a hell of a place." This is a great song, but
just so you know the steadily-increasing tension in the
relentless arrangement and passionate vocals will have you
feeling a bit exhausted by the time it's over.
But you know, what better to get you through hump day than
some tricky indie rock that softly lures you in, and then
proceeds to head butt you.
There are a ton
of great live clips of the band on Youtube, but I decided to
go with this simple piece that's been set to Mattresses
Underwater, which pretty much sounds like Cursive,
Athlete and Modest Mouse put together. You'll probably
like it a lot.
