Track of the Day - 8/13/10

"O.N.E." - Yeasayer
Listen Here

Hey, didn't we just have a Yeasayer track? Well, yes, but that was all the way back a month ago, so technically no. Ha! Anyway, this is off their latest release, Odd Blood, which is a bit more pop-ish than their debut LP. "O.N.E." is a pretty good example of that pop influence, as the song bounces along to an addictive rhythm and synth-tastic sound. Check it out!

Previous day's (month's) connection: For anyone who can remember all the way back to the last time I did this thing, the connection between Grizzly Bear and Wilco is that both bands were featured in Volkswagen commercials. Huzzah! Okay, onwards and upwards I guess!

Track of the Day - 7/17/10

"2080" - Yeasayer
Listen Here

Today's track is by Yeasayer. I'm tired right now, so that's about all I can come up with. If you want to know some stuff about it, you should listen to it, cause it's a song and they're for listening, not reading about. Sorry.

Previous day's connection: Both Janelle Monae and David Bowie are artists who have used alter-egos in their careers/made albums based around fictional characters. Janelle Monae based The ArchAndroid around the fictional story of Cindi Mayweather, while Bowie of course had Ziggy Stardust. Fun facts.
