A friend recently asked me to check out Sleepy Time Gorilla Museum and said they were one of the best bands he had ever seen live. -warning, that video and song I linked to are pretty dark. It wasn't my cup of tea but he says there's more to it and therefore, I'm inclined to dig further. I also listened to Efterklang, The Silver Jews, Ken Stringfellow and some Andrew Bird.
The first link is highly unusual. But only on an experimental hard rock song's YouTube link would you find a comment with the word diptych in it. Anyway, I rather think I prefer Andrew Bird :pThis song is actually the first part of a diptych. The second part, "The Donkey-Headed Adversary of Humanity Opens the Discussion," is written in the voice of the Biblical Lucifer, and basically ridicules everything that is in this song. Taken together as a whole, these songs are in fact a commentary on both the people who call themselves Satanists and the very idea of Satan itself. They are written with tongue firmly planted in cheek. Critical thinking... it's what's for dinner.
