Hey - I really liked that! Kinda eerie. The video was insane too.

Hmm, non-mainstream. Like just not MTV, right? Non-popularized. Which happens to be most of what I listen to, I suppose. I just don't usually acknowledge it as such.

YouTube - Alcest - Souvenirs D'un Autre Monde

YouTube - Grouper - Heavy Water / I'd Rather Be Sleeping

YouTube - I Want Wind to Blow by the Microphones

Sleepy songz 'cause I'm sleepy.

Same lol I just wanted to familiarize it,
but I like the song by the microphones,
Have you ever heard of Brand New, Mat Musto, or Mat&Kim?
Just some more stuff ta listen to if ya' have time. lol
The majority of my time is wound up in music so I've got a'lot of titles.

I've heard of Brand New, and just checked the others out! Reminds me of what I used to listen to when I was a bit younger!

I think you'd really like The Promise Ring!

YouTube - The Promise Ring- 8. Raspberry Rush

That entire album was my adolescence! I still listen to it now sometimes.
