Today's Quick Mention:  Pluckers didn't have trivia last week because of the UT baseball game, so it was nice to return last night, have some good times and snatch up a third place victory.  And what about best team name?  Yeah, that definitely goes to the folks who came up with Now Tito Can Shine.  Hilarious.

If you recall, a while back I shared a song from Lightning Dust (Black Mountain's Amber Webber and Josh Wells), and it was awesome.  Now, since they're a little closer to releasing Infinite Light, they've decided to deliver another single.  It's different, but just as good, so scroll down and give it a listen.  Then you can join me in waiting impatiently for August 4 to arrive.  Enjoy.

:Lightning Dust - Never Seen:  Hearing Amber's voice quiver and slide effortlessly between beautiful and haunting isn't exactly a new experience, but I'm used to her having the mighty psych-rock ways of Black Mountain lingering in the background and not a somewhat strange and very 80s mix of synths and piano.  It still works just as well and I think the song is fantastic, but I wouldn't say that it has the same sort of "fresh" feeling that the last single, I Knew had.  By the way, you'll want headphones for this.
