Song of the Day - May 18, 2006

Seattle's Mon Frere are back with their first full length album Blood, Sweat, & Swords. "Bigshot," one of my favorite tracks, is a condensed, short shot of rock. At under two minutes, the song starts with a bang of guitars and drums, which are soon overpowered by Nouela Johnston's pop punk vocals. Short songs leave me craving more of that energy, which Mon Frere delivers in songs like "Let It Bleed (Teen Wolf)," and "Bulliton." As winners of Paul Allen's Experience Music Project, I am sure we will hear more from the talented trio Mon Frere in the future. Click here to listen.
