Something to make you not give up on music...

Every so often our ear drums are scared for life (ex: anything by Ke$ha) and then there are times where you can't stop talking about a band that you've just learned about that you want to share with all of your friends after you hit "play"...this group/ song is one of those.

The group WARPAINT won my ear drums after an amazing friend who has a keen skill for effortlessly scouting out musical talent sent me this YouTube video....because now-a-days the only groups that get played on mainstream radio are looped terrible songs (ex: Black Eyed Peas)....when the merge between major label executives & corporate radio executives decided that whatever they feel work will be played 24 hours a day...womp womp...

The group WarPaint's song "Bees" reminds me of the 90's when alternative/semi-indie rock bands began to blend with danceable beats (think Luscious Jackson), while playing with simple styles & sounds...it's a sound that I can dig and maybe you will too:
