DMBQ - SmokerMP3: Destination DiamondsArtist: Diamond Nights WebsiteLabel: Kemado WebsiteGenre: Glam RockI first heard this on the The Deli Magazine. We are seeing the next trend in indie-ville: rock n' roll with testicles. The Green-Party weepy music era is soon to draw to a close I predict.

They want IT!Right now ther ... Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache |

VW - Reakes and ShapiroMP3: Barn OwlArtist: The Black Squirrels WebsiteLabel: Concrete and Clay WebsiteLondon's Concrete and Clay have a handful of really good, mostly instrumental, cut-and-paste and hip-hop meets indie-pop artists.
