Slim “Interstate Medicine” – pop/altrock album with great vocals & captivating lyrics

hailey
There are times that you just want to listen to some kind of noisy music, but not exactly loud; something that would lift up your mood, but not exactly to dance; something that lets you pump up some blood through your veins but not exactly to make you filled with adrenaline. Filled with 12 tracks that will sure to keep your head bobbing, Interstate Medicine will let you relate to its song's lyrics by the band leader's Michael Baker. Let his voice be stuck in your head! We couldn't exactly put how they sound into words, but here's what Michael wrote: I crank my amps louder than Tom Petty, but not as loud as Cannibal Corpse. I'm wordier than Jane's Addiction, but not as yappy as e.e. cummings. I'm taller than Prince, but not as tall as Krist Novoseli.

Kupek “Tries Again” – great alternative songs to chill out to

hailey
Not all songs are meant to be heard while you chill out. Others might be too noisy, and others might make you too sleepy. But Kupek does it differently - they make it just right. For those who like the sounds of John Mayer and Jason Mraz, then Kupek is a great alternative. Think of him as an open-source (read: free) alternative to alternative, relaxed rock styles out there in the market.
