THE BIRd DAY - Collect Vibrations

Sunny/crunchy/falsetto/explode-in-ur-pants/funky/dance-pop goodness.  No..... Greatness.

THE BIRd DAY comes from Buffalo, NY - these guys have been on my radar ever since hearing their first free DL track, Thirsty, off their website.  I initially heard of them from my buddies in Holy Spirits (who by the way will be playing live with THE BIRd DAY at Glasslands Gallery in NYC tomorrow night -- if you're in the area, I can't recommend going to this show enough)

A few more singles and a full length (via mediafire (via Dead As Digital)) later, I'm fully hooked.  These guys really know what they're doing, and have a sense for catchy falsetto melodies that I haven't heard since Hissing Fauna era of Montreal.  Ganted, THE BIRd DAY isn't nearly as spastic as Kevin Barnes, but they surely make up for it with musical hooks that well deserve their repeated chorus structure.

FuzZ: Interstellar Sparkles

Do you ever have those moments? You know, the moments where you:

• are walking down a dark alley at night,
• have a glock in ya pants,
• are wearing dark sunglasses and a leather jacket
• with hood up
• just left a shady house party in Brooklyn,
•  want to kill the people who murdered your mother

For those of you who ever found yourself in this scene from a movie in your head, I recommend FuzZ. His track 'Marshmallow Bazooka' from his full-length LP entitled 'Sparkle Vision' that was released late this past June.

Marshmallow Bazooka by FuzZ
 
There is undeniably something strangely clean about his 'sound.' He is not afraid of the funk. Nor does he fuck around with breakdowns.

Buy Sparkle Vision on bandcamp. (All proceeds go to FuzZ and none to Steve Jobs) :D
You can find moar FuzZ on his Soundcloud, and you can tell him how much you like 'Sparkle Vision' directly to him via his Twitter or his Myspace.
