Little Brazil – these guys amaze me. Not because they are great musicians or songwriters – no. What amazes me is how these guys can go from decent Midwest indie band to the heights of suckitude in the span of about five minutes. Do they even listen to the music before the release it? Damn.
Little Brazil is from Omaha, Nebraska, which sucks for them. They all have menial day jobs, one of them works at Cinnabons (Seriously, is that a joke?) and I think they listen to too much Death Cab For Cutie.
Somehow, I ended up with their EP You and Me and now I’m writing about it on my blog. The rest off the EP is good enough to keep bringing
me back but makes me wonder why I’m still listening to it.
Well, you can’t
win them all, I guess.
Stuff to Sample: Little Brazil doing some great
progish indie rock with “The Way You Listen†and then doing a 180 and taking
the express lane to What-The-Hell-Were-We-Thinking-Ville just past the
God-This-Sucks exit with “You and Meâ€
Is everything alright, do you need someone to talk to :-) or does all music just suck? I have not seen a positive post in some time now.
[1] Technically, only one of the last six posts was a bad review. I'm split on Little Brazil and the new Redwalls. Both bands are great but their new releases are not master pieces. And I really dig Tosca and the Black Keys. There just hasn't been anything really impressive these past two weeks, but I think I may have found some things. Stay tuned.
