Song of the Day - May 24, 2006

Here's another great Seattle band, Mountain Con, which recently released Sancho Panza. It is a little bit hard to characterize their sound, which combines element of folk, rock, and occasional hip hop influences. Traces of Dylan, The Kinks, and even Franz Ferdinand can be found in their music and it is those influences which really entice me when I listen to their music. Dylan probably stands out the most prominently on the track "House Party in the New Dark Ages." It particularly reminds of Dylan during his Highway 61 Revisited era. Click here to listen.
