Ruling the iPod: Local Natives' Gorilla Manor


About a year ago I rediscovered Talking Heads. Their music is just so funky and strange and ahead of its time. I must not be the only one obsessed with the Heads in 2010. The Dirty Projectors and my favorite band of the moment, Local Natives seem to have sipped from David Byrne's kool-aid cup as well. Pitchfork has a good review of this album (btw Pitchfork through Lala allows you to listen to as much of the album as you want before you purchase - gotta love our instant access/gratifcation world!) Here a live BBC studio version of the very moving "Airplanes."
