Flogging Molly - Drunken Lullabies

Dresden Dolls - Shores of California

The name of the band is from a song by The Fall...

The Fall - Dead Beat Descendent

As requested...

I remember seeing The Fall at Southampton University when I was an undergrad there... must have been about six feet from the stage, which was about a foot and a half high. What I remember most about Mark E. Smith was the clothes... he looked like he had walked into a random Marks & Spencer and picked up the first thing he saw. Totally unpretentious. Interesting guy.

Pete Shelley - Homosapien

Gogol Bordello - Start Wearing Purple

If this doesn't get you to start wearing purple, I don't know what will...

Regina Spektor - Fidelity

Two very different videos featuring the same song: the official one is above, and a brilliant new ad from the Courage Campaign below...

Death Cab for Cutie - Title and Registration

The glove compartment isn't accurately named...

The Postal Service - Such Great Heights

Gorky's Zygotic Mynci - Spanish Dance Troupe

The Shins - New Slang

The New Pornographers - Challengers

One of the most original bands I've heard in years...
