“480 Minues” – New Duke Spirit

No comments

We’re back from the Thanksgiving holiday and all of that fabulous food and time off.  It was glorious, and I didn’t overeat at either feast I attended…well, by Fast Bastard American standards, anyway.  While there were too many delicious things to list them all, I must give a shout out to the chocolate tart made by Hal Looby, which I have dreamt about all week.  Hal delivers his amazing baked goods to your door by bicycle (if you live in San Francisco), and you can score a couple on auction at the SF Bike Coalition’s Winterfest event this Sunday.

As always this edition of 480 Minutes will highlight all of the new indie rock noise pop gems making their way into rotation next week (yes, you get a preview!).  Today we’ll be debuting new music by Bleeding Knees Club (Gold Coast, Australia), Cloud Control (Sydney, Australia), Darkness Falls (Copenhagen, Denmark), David Newton & Thee Mighty Angels (Los Angeles, CA), Devin (Brooklyn, NY),  The Duke Spirit (London, England), Girl In A Coma (San Antonio, TX), Gotye (Melbourne, Australia), Highway Gimps (New York, NY), Hindi Zahra (Khouribga, Morocco), Horrid Red (Aachen, Germany/San Francisco, CA), Husband (Perth, Australia),  Kill Moi (San Francisco, CA), The Lost Sounds (Memphis, TN), Mikal Cronin (San Francisco, CA), Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds (Oasis), Okkervil River (Austin, TX), Serenades (Stockholm, Sweden), Willoughby (Los Angeles, CA), Wooden Wand (Lexington, KY), Zomby (England), plus music from the Minnesota Beatle Project Volume 3.  While in my not-so-humble (nor hard-to-elicit opinion) it is generally a mistake to cover Beatle songs, there are some credible ones here, featured bands include Cloud Cult and Tapes ‘n Tapes, plus it’s for a good cause (proceeds go to support music education in Minnesota), plus I love the album art:
