This was easy pickins, as I was on a rampage of catching up to the good music of 2008 that I sorely missed. Is there anything wrong with easy pickins? Not at all.
The Dodo’s, Visiter – Channeling Mississippi blues and Midwestern folk into a driving, rocking, jangling beat never hurt nobody. In fact, it’s probably good for you. Very good for you if you are listening to The Dodo’s
Boyz Noise, Oi Oi Oi – Biased and subjective, yes I am. Germany is in my heart now and I can’t let go. It doesn’t help that their djs and producers consistently put out some of the best dance music in the world. And this is case in point. If the Euro continues it’s crash course, I’ll be spending more direct time stealing more music from the Rhineland. Until then, Oi Oi Oi will suffice.
