Fresh Biscuit: Suckers

I am pretty sure that summer is here now. All the songs are becoming lighter, breezier, more care free. This song is called 'Easy Chair' and is from a Brooklyn band called Suckers. You can think of them as a slightly poppier verision of Yeasayer, because their vocals are in the communal chant vein. They were also produced by Yeasayer, so theres that. Look/Listen:

'Easy Chairs'

Stale Biscuit: Yeasayer

Trust me, you won't be a naysayer once you hear the sweetness of Yeasayer. Oof, that was probably the worst thing I've ever written. Cough. Yeasayer has a strange theme as a band, they write music as if their lives are taking place during primal days when you must kill others to survive, and apples spin and fly through space. This video is from their previous album 'All Hour Cymbals' which is a must own, and will also be true about their new album (fingers crossed).

'Wait for the Summer'

Also, I stumbled upon a semi-old video of a minimal production/maximal awesome performance of them at La Blogotheque's 'Take Away Show'.

Lastly, here is a song they did for a charity compilation, which rules. If you listen to it you have to buy it otherwise you are a bad person.

'Tightrope'
