When I think of bike trails in Oregon, I assume they're going to be beautiful, lined by redwoods, and leading down to a lakeside. And indeed, the album cover of the aptly named Oregon Bike Trails' LP High School Lover reflects just that. So does thei...

I'd never heard of The Dead Trees until a few days ago, but as soon as I heard this, I couldn't help but listen to the entire thing a few consecutive times. It's a charming, catchy sort of "fuck you" song, and I love that. I love catchy "fuck you's."...

When it comes to dreamy, creative indie pop, New Jersey's Real Estate do it damn well. Their eponymous first album, which came out in 2009, was a definite favorite; perfect for when I wanted to listen to something different but easily so.
The band w...

Somewhat of an atypical sound on today's Song of the Day. Beach Fossils caught my attention when Devin first wrote a review of their EP back in February. The song she featured, "Face It," had a dreamy, twangy sound, and I must say that I quite enjoye...

Sonny & The Sunsets were a favorite of mine in 2010 "” I couldn't get enough of their 60s-style hand-clapping surf rock. Their new album, Hit After Hit, has the same retro-spirit, with an added darker sounding, blues-influenced sex appeal (imagin...

When I first joined Indie Shuffle, I was told I had to try and make Songs of the Day new and relevant, yet today's choice is neither. In fact, it hails from 1964.After watching the somewhat racist surf-documentary Endless Summer, I decided to downloa...

La Femme is probably the hottest thing out of France at the moment. If that doesn't sound like much, step back. Remember that France is the home of Kitsuné, Ed Banger, Daft Punk, and Croissants, plus plenty more to boot. So, in other words, these gu...
