So my newest most favorite band everrrrr is Real Estate. Yes, I live in Tampa where 'real estate' has been a bad word of late. But let me tell you all now, this Real Estate is hot!
It's the kind of music that beckons the days of wandering around on Saturday afternoons in Philly (when the biggest decision of my day was which bar to drink at) and popping in to an indie record shop. The kind that was grungy and smelled like patchoulie. And it was just a mess of ripped posters of recent or upcoming shows and the guy behind the counter barely acknowledged you unless you were a die hard regular. That tinny sort of mellow indie music filling the store and making you feel cool simply because you were standing inside and were in the know.
Itunes and the internet has made it a lot easier to have access to cool music. But those shops are practically gone now. I miss them so.
