Do You Like Rock Music?

It's always good news when British Sea Power emerges from the studio with new tunes in tow. First preview, "Atom", has been released as a free download and is definitely a choice tune. The song will appear on an EP later in November and then on a new album to follow in the new year entitled "Do You Like Rock Music?". I have my fingers crossed. The first BSP album is still in my all-time top 10.

British Sea Power - "Atom".

I had the golden opportunity of seeing Low in concert once again last night. That makes seven (that I can remember) times across five cities (Provo, Denver, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Austin). I'm not floored by "Drums and Guns" yet, but I am floored by moments therein and most notably "Murderer". Deep.

Low - "Murderer" (Radio France Black Session, 05-07-2007).

And, finally, in this post of whateverness -- If you haven't started watching Friday Night Lights yet, please change your ways. It's amazing. I thank a friend for continually twisting my arm. For me, there are two shows on TV -- The Office and Friday Night Lights. FNL makes me forget that the OC ever even had a good season. I'm addicted. And, the music (provided primarily by the untouchable Explosions In The Sky) is amazing. Included below is a band that I've just discovered (not via FNL) that have a definite Explosions-esque vibe and hail from San Marcos, TX, just south of Austin.

This Will Destroy You - "I Believe In Your Victory".
