Remember when "modern rock" and "alternative" rock were interchangable, and the universe of great well-known bands and songs was endless and diverse. Not anymore (check Billboard Modern rock charts for proof). However, if you like melodic modern rock, here are some new & old tracks you may have never heard. Or maybe you have. But if this blog introduces only one person to even one great song they've never heard before, it will have served it's purpose.
Name your adjective...lush, dark, dreamy, gothic...they all fit. Alice Glass is the face and voice of Crystal Castles, who hail from Toronto. Her striking video presence notwithstanding, the mood is similar to the long-defunct British band Lush .

Big fan of these guys; but I don't know why VEVO blocked this video here, considering CC are from Canada.
ReplyDeleteSorry it's blocked. I hate VEVI myself. If I can download and post incognito on YouTube I'll post a link here.
ReplyDeleteEh, don't worry about it. I'm sure others have done so already, and I have the song in my library. I just.. VEVO... argh.
