I caught an amazing performance by The Frames on Jimmy Fallon a couple weeks ago and I've been obsessed with them ever since. I already owned one of their albums (2007's "The Cost") after seeing the movie "Once" and discovering what Glen Hansard was all about. The guy is one hell of a songwriter, and I had no idea that his main band The Frames had been around for the past 20 years. They have a similar following in Ireland that the Hip have here in Canada. Insanely popular in their home country, but barely known in the rest of the world. Anyways, they're a fantastic band. Here's their performance from Fallon:

They're a band I've been aware of but never really investigated too thoroughly. I will now however.

Recently, I've been on a big Deer Tick and Fleet Foxes kick.

This album has leaked, with knowledge of by the band (and a blind eye), and is absolutely incredible. I can't wait to buy the real thing and give it a proper blasting through my sound system. Also, I really hope they expand their tour itinerary, and come somewhere remotely close to Toronto or southern Ontario this summer.

Not sure if this should be here or in the "Albums you've recently re-discovered" thread. New UO coming out inspired me to dig this gem out I haven't heard in a while. Love these guys!

City and Colour Little Hell is blowing me away right now Confusedhock:
I will not give up. My face is set,my gait is fast,my goal is heaven,my road is narrow,my way is rough,my companions are few,my guide is reliable,my mission is clear. I cannot be bought,compromised,detoured,lured away,turned back,diluted or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice,hesitate in the presence of adversity,negotiate at the table of the enemy,ponder at the pool of popularity,or meander in the maze of mediocrity. I will not give up,shut up or slow down....Blessed Be!
