Today's Quick Mention:  Don't forget that the bi-weekly appearance of Leah Manners and her numerous hip hop recommendations starts tomorrow. Do your best to go easy on her, you vicious music savages.  One other thing, hit up the About page for an updated schedule and such.

Continuing the indie rock trend (yikes! where's all the sugary pop?) this week is Heartless Bastards.  I think that their bluesy sound is pretty fantastic, but sometimes I get the impression that there are quite a few people who just don't find them that appealing, which is kind of a shame.  Anyhow, their third LP, The Mountain, is due February 3 on Fat Possum.  Enjoy.

:Heartless Bastards - The Mountain To be honest, there isn't anything here that you haven't heard from the band before.  The music, despite having two new members, is still guitar driven and determined to slog right along in complete and total support of Erika Wennerstrom's incredible voice.  That's really what I was hoping would be delivered, so I'm all set.  What about you?
