July 2006 - Songs of the Day

July started out with the gentle folk of Vetiver and ended with the raw power of Awesome Color. Sandwiched in between those dissimilar bookends was a wide variety of music: the strange and eerie Matmos, the mellow Mount Eerie, and the fuzzed-out bliss of Dirty on Purpose. It's a strange mix to be sure, but variety is the spice of life. A few new discoveries, such as The Epsilons, Conner, and The Unsacred Hearts, are contenders for best of the year.
