Like Jen, I've recently made more of an effort to listen to the music that is sent to me. Yesterday I received an absolute gem in my inbox. The band is called Smallspace from Grand Rapids, Michigan. They sound a LOT like Radiohead. There's no avoiding that comparison, but that's okay, because they are good enough to pull it off. I've literally listened to the stream of their album off their website 5 times through since I got the link yesterday afternoon. I can't get enough. I'm dying to see if they can pull it off live.
They'll be at Trash in Williamsburg on Sept 7th. Idlewild and The National with Clap Your Hands Say Yeah are playing that night, but I think I'd rather see these guys right now. They'll also be here for CMJ, playing 169 Bar on Friday at Midinght (9/16). Now that Neon Blonde is going on earlier (10:15), I'll hopefully be able to make it in for that too. I've got some MP3's below, but have a listen to the whole album on the website. It's well worth it.
pfft see Idlewild
