Here is one: a bit older but obscure and catching at the same time. Although, Daddy Yo Yo may disagree - these guys are Austrian (the one with the Alps, not the kangaroos ;) ).

I'm really coming around on Gogol Bordello....I think I'm going to have to buy some CDs.
 
I thought this was interesting. It is a new band (I presume) called San Fermin. This is off their first album.

Just saw this today, Steve 'n' Seagulls.

It is sort of a rip on Hayseed Dixie several years back where a bluegrass band played AC/DC songs, but this is a Finnish group with quite possibly the whitest skin on the planet playing AC/DC's Thunderstruck.

The New Pornographers have a song on their new album called "Champions of Red Wine". It always makes me think of your house Mr. Drinky.

And you should see the red wine piling up these days. I just got my shipment of Denner in today too, and more rouge treats arrive every day. We need to have another knife and drink party sometime.

Ween - 12 Golden Country Greats (the greatest weird album you'll ever hear, even if you don't like country)

Polyphonic Overtone Singing was a new one for me.

Luther Allison: I saw him 5 times in my life. He was an intense and gracious performer. I miss him dearly.

Bombino: saw him this year at Jazzfest. Very interesting guitar player.

The Ukrainians, Ty Zh Mene Pidmanula. You gotta love a song that has as its chorus "You deceived me, you let me down."

If you do not know him already, Steven Wilson is one of the best contemporary musicians I know, one of my absolutely favorites and his music is among the one I listen most often... try this one:

And this one is particularly haunting for me: Anathema - Untouchable

I've been digging Agnes Obel as of late. She's been more popular in Europe, but her Riverside song is my new vinyl favorite. Got some good play time last night.

I always loved this Ismael Lo song. Just popped up on my iPod. It was in the soundtrack to an Almodovar movie about 15-20 years ago, and the singer is from Senegal.

I ran into the artist, Cate Le Bon, in some SXSW line up. I had never heard of her before, but she has a happy sort of relaxed sound and is Welsh. This video with a kid in it is pretty fukin cute too.

One of DC's finest -Unrest

You've got to skip about a minute and a half for the music to start. 4AD -still a great label.
 
That's good stuff knyfe. I likey.

So also just bought a ticket to the Torres show in Minneapolis about two months from now. Gotta love those $10 concerts.

World Inferno Friendship Society came out with a new album this last November called This Packed Funeral. They got some members back in the band and I likey. A lot of people put them in the cabaret punk label, but they mix a lot of styles of music with a lot of instruments. Their Hallowmas show is on my bucket list.
