Today I picked up two records -- Boat's "Dress Like Your Idols" and The Lonely Forest's "Arrows". You should check them out. Boat had a live performance on KEXP this morning, and they are having a cd release show this Friday night at The Tractor in Ballard. I'm going to try and hit that up if tickets aren't already sold out. Here is a review of their new album from Pitchfork. Personally, I'm loving the album. I can already tell it will be on repeat for awhile. Also hoping John Roderick will be at the show to do backing vocals on "Landlocked". Because guess what? I dig on some John Roderick.
Check out Boat's cover of T.Rex's Children of the Revolution, a personal favorite....

In less indie pop and more pop culture news, I downloaded a couple songs on iTunes. Young Blood by The Naked and Famous. Here you go:
And My Body by Young the Giant
