The Strokes ~ Hard to Explain (2002)

"I say the right thing, But act the wrong way
I like it right here, But I cannot stay
I'm watching TV, forget what I'm told
Well, I am too young, And they are too old
Oh, man cant you see, I'm nervous, so please
Pretend to be nice, So I can be mean
I missed the last bus, I'll take the next train
I'll try, but you see, It's hard to explain"

Sorry for the interruption (3) but...

Sorry for the interruption but the TTMB would like to bring you another Artist you Should Know. This weeks artist is...
The Daylights
"The Daylights are a commanding three-piece emerging from the neon lights of Los Angeles, CA. The close-knit group consists of brothers Ran (guitars/vocals/keys) and Ricky Jackson (bass/vocals) and drummer Svend Lerche. Known for their giant melodies and cinematic sound" (taken from their website) 
I would place these guys in the same vain as Onerepublic, The Script and the very first TTMB artist you should know artist Andy Davis, who they are currently on tour with.  
Here are , in my humble opinion, are their two best songs.


                                                        I Hope This Gets To You 

                                                                    
                                                         Quick Fix 

   If you enjoyed this weeks artist you should know, check out their self-titled album on itunes.

Sorry for the interruption (2) but TTMB would like to bring you yet another artist you should hear.
This weeks artist is
CAVO
One of my favorite "new" bands, even thought their first studio album Bright Nights Dark Days was released in 2008.  I guess you would technically place them in the "post-grunge" genre, but I say that they just rock!  This song almost made it into my top ten..
Cavo ~ Crash       

"Every mile gets you further away from the past
Feels like you're shattered and covered in broken glass
And I'll be here the next time that you crash
Yeah, I'll be here the next time that you crash"
If you want to hear more check out their CD Bright Nights Dark Days, or/and listen to their new single "Thick as Thieves"
