The Funeral - Band of Horses

You put on The Funeral and people around you wonder why it sounds so familiar. It's because Kid Cudi (I guess you guys can sense that I am a Kid Cudi fan), sampled it really well in The Prayer. This song has so many levels, that it becomes real trippy. The song is really chill, and is a quality in music that I love. A song where you can kick back and listen to the music.

Oh...and how trippy is the album cover. I love it!

Sleep Through The Static - Jack Johnson

Yupp, I am pulling the Jack Johnson card. Jack Johnson is a musicians artist. Meaning, while many love his music, the real appreciation comes from the people who play instruments and have attempted to write music. In this particular song, the lyrics are delivered in a very rhythmic way where each new line is a continuation of the preceding line.
Such as, "...Of god wears camouflage, cries at night and drives a dodge
Pick up the beat and stop hogging the feast
That's no way to treat an enemy."

That's what I call genius!

Hope you guys like it! As always...comment and start discussions.
