Phosphorescent; A Million Hits!

Okay, I am not a big fan of the Greek philosopher pose too, but Matthew Houck and his rotating band of players are the hottest thing on the web and indie music right now. Run quickly to the band myspace and check out four songs from Pride and Aw Come Aw Wry, his last two releases. Aw Come is very Bonnie Prince Billy, but Pride is the sound of a band defining its own sound. Dark, contemplative lyrics, and a brooding minimal sound that will keep you coming back to one of the best albums you'll hear this year.

Listen: Pride
Buy: Pride


On another note, 1 MILLION of you just made it to this blog, all in less than two years since I started posting my lame thoughts on music. I thank you for reading.
