Today's Quick Mention:  I'm really debating whether or not I want to try and head down to Emo's for the Gossip after the Austin Film Festival comes to a close tonight at the Paramount.  Anyone caught one of their shows before?  Will it be worth the time?  Let me know!

This week has been heavy on the mellow, so today I'm turning the dial up to a 12 with some music from a Brooklyn-based act who have named themselves the just about impossible to Google word combination of Sleigh Bells.  Damn crazy kids.  Anyhow, I'm not entirely sure how you can physically own the music below, so if you must know I advise contacting them through Myspace.  Enjoy.

:Sleigh Bells - Crown On The Ground:  I swear.  Every single time that I think I'm on the verge of completely moving on from the nonsensical whatever that noise pop has become (I'm looking at you Wavves), someone like Sleigh Bells comes along and presents a more accessible approach.  Now, I doubt that means all of you will like this, but regardless of sound the band does have a undeniably infectious energy about them, so the chances are pretty good.  Just try not to dance yourself to death once you get hooked.
