Music update

Certainly not uncovering new music here, but nonetheless here are three worthy recommendations of (hot tunes / ear candy / sweet sounds / must-hear melodies / any lame music cliche) for this week:

Phoenix - 1901
Believe it or not, are neither new nor even American - they're Frenchies that have been around for over a decade


Passion Pit - The Reeling
After an unexpectedly popular hit in late 2008, they rushed to put out a full length album and it's proven to be great (and it's worth paying attention to the video too)


Grizzly Bear - Two Weeks
Pitchfork gave a stunning review, but so far I'm not quite as convinced. However this is a great place to start
