But unfortunately, along with the news about the new album, came the new about guitarist, Malcolm Young will not be recording with the band, due to illness. This will be the first time in AC/DC's 41 year history without their founding guitarist.
Regardless, I'm sure it is still going to be awesome, and I am so excited to hear it.
The 1 minute teaser, has the roaring vocals, smooth guitar riffs and the rocking out we always loved.
Below is where the new track is very sneakly (probably not a word, but you still understood it!) hid it in the new MLB's postseason commercial.
THIS SONG HAS BEEN STUCK IN MY HEAD FOR A WEEK NOW.
GET IT OUT!!!
AHHHH!
I get it, it's got a good message. The song talks about being confident in who you are, no matter what size or shape you are. That's awesome.
But it's one of those super poppy songs that I cannot stand. It's too much pop for me.
The fact that I can't let it escape my brain is driving me nuts.
Right now, I'm listening to Led Zepp. trying to get rid of it.
I'm sure you've heard it before.
If not, here ya go! MUAHAHAHAHAHA!!! (I'm really sorry)
It's been awhile since I've written anything, but lately I've been trying to step out of my comfort zone. I listened to some folk music the other day and I did not like it at all. Probably the worst thing I've listened to in awhile. Worse than Jaden Smith's new single. Have you heard it? Good, don't.
Anyway, I finally had the chance to sit down and discover some new music.
So after searching for some new tunes, I found a folk band from Texas. Their name isShakey Graves. Now after listening to the first folk band (that I despise) I thought that maybe this isn't what all folk bands sound like, so I decided to give Shakey Graves a try.
Again, folk music isn't my forte, actually I don't really think any type of music is my forte... I LOVE ALL DA SONGZZZ.
I really like this band though. They are very relaxing. I'm listening to their track, "Unlucky Skin" from their 2011 album 'Roll The Bones'. There is clapping in the background and the banjo player is just plucking away. The 2 vocalists are telling a story and harmonize very well together. It sounds a little country, especially with the harmonica fading in and out. It's a very upbeat song. Just chill man, just chill.
Now I listened to their newest single, "Dearly Departed". They have a lady vocalist. it's a lot harder and a more country. The banjo disappeared :[ I'm not sure if I like the newer Shakey Graves. But I did only hear one song, I guess we shall see...
Still, I think Shakey Graves are worth checking out. They're still a good band!
I was going to do an album review, but I'm broke... :[
So here the next best thing.
LOOK WHO I FOUND!!
(applause and cheering in the background....)
I discovered these guys by one of my friends. We were at her house and we decided to start YouTubing a bunch of stuff, videos of people getting hit with things, turned into funny cat videos, and that turned into music videos, and she showed me Kongos music video for "Come With Me Now". After that their music just kinda stuck with me. Then, I heard them on the radio and I decided that was it. I have to write about these guys!
First off, they have an accordion! How cool is that?! It's not one of those weird old people bands that have a geeky accordion in it. No. These dudes are total jammin' rock music and the guy that plays the accordion just jams out too. It sounds amazing and original. The lead singer has a scratchy voice and really low, Not melodic at all, but it works for their sound. The steel guitar solo in this song is great too. It works with the accordion as well, like their playing off each other.
Here's their hit single, "Come With Me Now"
Tell me this isn't a cool song? Totally different. The accordion just makes it.
