Yay of Nay: Two Door Cinema Club covers Munford and Sons' 'The Cave'

Tourist HistoryOne of my good friends, Martin, who often shares his adoration of indie music with me, posted a great cover song on my Facebook wall the other day and it has been in heavy rotation on my iPod.  Irish indie pop trio, Two Door Cinema Club, covered 'The Cave' by Munford and Sons. I love how the trio included the synth-ational beats in the melodic folk tune. Let me know what you think of the cover!!!

Two Door Cinema Club will be in town on September 17th, at Kool Haus.

The Artful Vandelays @Rancho Relaxo on August 26th, 2011

The Artful Vandelays performed at Rancho Relaxo last night with Arizona Lily and The Neighbourhood Watch. I loved how the quartet rearranged the intro and chorus of some songs during the performance.

If you weren't at Rancho last night, this is what you have missed. Don't worry. TAV has a gig at the legendary Horseshoe Tavern on September 28th for you to catch up their performance!!!






Here is a new song, called ' Song Lines'

Broken Social Scene covers Modest Mouse's ' The World at large at Osheaga

One of my favorite bands all time, Broken Social Scene, hit thestage at  Osheaga music festival in Montreal on Friday, July 29th. As the sky started clearing out, the Toronto mega collective fired out their good old tunes, including ' 7/4 shoreline', and "Cause =Time.'  


Aside from the regular tour members, including, Kevin Drew, Breadan Canning, and my favorite member, Andrew Whiteman,  it's always a surprise to find out who will be attending to a show: Amy Mullan from Stars, and James Shaw from Metric were on the stage for the festival.  The  band entertained the audience constantly with their unique stage performance despite a couple of technical difficulty with the guitars. While performing 'Almost Crimes', Drew made the crew to re-play the chorus of the song. Moreover, Exclaimed by Drew,  ' If you know this song, please scream loudly, the audience went nuts when Modest Mouse's cover, 'The World at Large' was beautifully covered by the band. 


Here is the video of the cover.

The singer songwriter and well-known producer, Butch Walker, just announced a free streaming of his up-coming album, 'The Spade' via Paste Magazine.

The new record is set to be released on August 30th. You can enjoy it from the below link. 

As he exclaimed in his blog post, "It's like Christmas!", I'm very excited for the new coming album and his fall tour. Toronto date is on October 19th at Mod Club Theatre. I will be posting my review of the album shortly. Stay tuned. 





Song of the Day: Patti Smith, 'Gloria'

Red Hot Chili Peppers, 'The Adventures of Rain Dance Maggie'

I'm With YouAfter a long hiatus and the departure of a key member, John Frusciante, Red Hot Chili Peppers are now back on the field with the up coming album, ' I'm With You.' This new record is set to be released on august 30th via Warner Bros after a 5 year wait since the last album. ' Stadium Arcadium' in 2006.

Have you listened to any of the sneak-peaks from the album yet?- I did last night and it took me by surprise how differently the quartet sounds with the new release. Here is a first single from the album, "The Adventures of Rain Dance Maggie'





If you don't like the ad at the beginning or would like to check out the lyrics, here is another video of the song. 



It definitely contains less melodic hooks that I used to grab from any Red Hot Chili Peppers' songs. However, the badass bass slapping by Flea and fun percussion spice up the song with good funk hip feel.


As I have discussed with fellow music lovers, Frusciante was definitely a strong influence in song writings in the past. This new record is in fact the first album in 15 years without him. You might find less 'Peppers' in the new album. Yet the band has progressed in a new chapter without Frusciante. I'm confident to say that you can highly anticipate from the new release. It's as if when cooking your best meal without a key ingredient, replacing it by adding other key spices.I'm sure that you will enjoy the new taste of Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Song of the Day: The Mohawk Lodge, 'Faster Than You Can'

Wear 'Em OutToday's song of the day is 'Faster Than You Can' by a Toronto rock band, the Mohawk Lodge. I had my very first night off in 2-3 weeks last night due to my hectic schedule with my work and vacation in Montreal. I was sitting at home, enjoying my daily routine of listening to CBC radio 3 chez moi. Then I discovered this plaintive song in their Music notes' post.

This song is from their latest album, 'Crimes' According to their bio, this album is " It’s a record that runs the gamete of loneliness and pain and somehow finds a little light at the end of the tunnel.."- which I strongly agree. This song definitely takes me somewhere very deep and dark at the bottom of my heart and brings awareness of how I used to feel. What an emotion trigger! I would love to see them live in Toronto. I'll ensure to keep you folks posted on their tour date!



Sandman Viper Command announced a fall tour

Song of the day: Johnny Alexander, Rolling On


It was over a year ago when Bryen and I were blown away by Toronto R&B/Jazz band, Johnny Alexander. The band has been on hiatus for a while now. I was going through my iTune the other day and I rediscovered the amour for their songs. Today's song of the day is 'Rolling On'. The intro of rhythmic guitar riffs and dandy bass lines by Jonny Cooper is an impeccable groove. I hope the day to see them live again is somewhere close. Enjoy.



August 16, 2011

Song of the day: Elvis Presley, Love Me Tender

It was 34 years ago today that the legendary Rock N' Roll singer, Elvis Presley, passed away.

I dedicate this song, Love me Tender as today's song of the day to celebrate his life. RIP Elvis.

Song of the Day, Land of Talk, 'It's Okay'

Cloak And Cipher
I was in a bus this morning on my way to work. Staring raindrops on the window, I had a song stuck in my head. This song is such an emotion trigger. Today's Song of the Day is Land of Talk, ' It's Okay.'

It's sometimes nice to start off a day with a plaintive feeling, flashing back memories.

Here is the lyrics of the song. Enjoy.




It's Okay,
I don't even cry
all I think about is a memory 
and the dream when you kissed my arm
as I look away, don't here what I say

That maybe when I die
I get to be a car 
driving in the night
lighting up the dark.
something in your voice
sparks a little hope
I'll wait up for that noise
your voice become my home

One way road, don't care what I find
A little thunders good, I thought maybe you would
but it's okay, we all feel left out
sometimes growing up, it can get you down.

I give you some thing that no one's going to give you
my sleepin' skin and my heart deep down in you
I'll never tell you, but you're my little scar
Goodbyes are hard and there hard and there hard 

Maybe when I die
I get to be a car 
driving in the night
Lighting up the dark
Something in your voice,
sparks a little hope
Ill wait up for that noise
your voice become my home

Joseph Arthur @Dakota Tavern on August 3rd



It was a wet and rainy evening when I entered the Dakota Tavern on August 3rd to check out Brooklyn singer songwriter and painter, Joseph Arthur. It was a great escape in a small hidden cave from the nasty weather, covering with a melodic rainbow created by Arthur.

Arthur shared an intimate set with the audience with his divine and strong voice during authentic tunes including  September Baby,  and Mercedes.  I got a hint that it was going to be a typical acoustic set after a few songs.-The one-man show with guitars and a harmonica,  having two unfinished paintings in the background, I was very wrong.

Beautiful voice and alluring tracks were not the only things that he's got.- what made his performance so special was Arthur performed a show as 'an artist.' While strumming layers of guitar riffs, solos, and drum beats sometimes recorded on the spot and programmed on his pedals. He rhymed and sang with melancholy melodies while painting pictures at the back. As he progressed to complete his piece, my emotion built up along with the song.



I can't forget to mention his phenomenal chemistry with the audience, which made the performance impeccable. He engaged with his crowed so closely by exchanging witty banters between songs. The audience paid full respects and enjoyed every moment of his show. "In The Sun!", " You're So True!" yelled a request of next songs, it seemed that the audience couldn't get enough of 'Joseph Arthur-ness.'

To close his performance, Arthur performed two unplugged song, standing on a box right in a front of the stage, which escalated intimacy in the venue. The melodies generated from his 6 strings and his voice convinced me enough to say that he is one of the most fine and unique 'artist's alive.

Song of the Day: The Artful Vandelays, Demon


Tonight! The Artful Vandelays will perform at the Horseshoe Tavern with The Higher Key and Willing to Pose!!! They are set to play at 10:15p.m tonight. This is a FREE show. Come join us for a great Monday night free show. Don't forget to bring your friends, a lot of them. The Door is at 9p.m.

Here is the deal. I will buy you a shot if:

1. You 'like' Music Psychos' Facebook page (you have to be a New 'like' of the page)

2. Come to the show

3. Find me in the crowd and say "I saw a post on Music Psychos" and tell me this password, 'awesome possum'

Be there and I will see you tonight!

The Graduation CeremonyThis week is going to be a crazy week for me as there are so many good shows in Toronto that I am attending while still recovering from the Osheaga.
