Gandalf says.

Gandalf - Gandalf (Album)



Pure Psychedelic Rock. Kinda trippy, somewhat scary and also anxious. Besides album covers says it all. But(?) it's definitely worth listening. Some of the songs are covers for sure ( Nature Boy being the obvious one ) but they are arranged in completely new way. The others, well i feel like I've known them but I can't be sure after listening to this album for a few times.

The Mighty Ocean

Astronautalis - The Mighty Ocean & Nine Dark Theaters (Album)


I'm not sure if there's a point in posting anything here but I'm gonna do it anyway.
This is just one song from this album. Whole album is available via playlist on Youtube.

After a long break i finally stumbled upon something new. The band is described as "Abstract Hip-Hop" but you can easily find connections with other genres, mostly soft-rock. This record is also special for its lack of classical instruments, it was recorded using almost only human body. Overall, after listening to few albums I'm astonished by this bands work. It's new, pleasant, smooth, with good lyrics.
It might remind someone of American Football posted earlier.
