Oh yes. Andy Hull is one of my top songwriters of all time, and this song shows that well.


White Room by We Are Standard.

These guys are like old U2, with influences of indie pop.

Yeah, I'm listening to more Manchester Orchestra songs right now. A lot of really good ones. I love finding a band that actually has more than 2 good songs.

Try out Andy Hull's side project Right Away, Great Captain! Most of it is him on guitar.

Also, because Manchester Orchestra and they have worked together and sound very similar, check out my favorite band The Dear Hunter. Casey Crescenzo is another one of those song writing gods. They worked together on The Dear Hunter's EP Red from their Color Spectrum.


Intro by The XX.

Ohh, I love the side project too! You're doing wonders for my music collection.

I'll check out the other one later. People here have this crazy idea that people should actually work while at work. It's weird, I know, but what can you do?

Been more than a day!

Lillian by The Dear Hunter.

In a interview, Casey said that the song he was most proud of writing was this one. And, really, its bloody phenomenal.

Sorry! I've been really busy with packing for the move. I can't believe I left so much stuff to the last minute. Really thought it would go much faster.

I've only had a chance to listen to a few songs, but so far this one is my favorite by The Dear Hunter. Do you have any favorites you'd recommend?

Currently listening to Shalott by Emilie Autumn.
