Time for Two

Well I missed one, this past Friday, so I am doing two today and what better was then to start off with Two Cups of Tea by Star Fucking Hipsters.

This right here is a great song.  I love the way that is slowly comes in and is very slow with some palm muted guitar and then goes right into some solid punk rifts with screaming and heavy distortion.  It shows how punk ranges from two totally different sounds especially breaking it up with the piano.  Before it sounds like mellow punk band and then turns into Choking Victim like music, which such a flawless transition how could one not love it. 

And now some Gogol Bordello

Gogol Bordello is lead by Eugene Hutz, an amazing, crazy, gypsy man who loves music.  All of their songs are amazing and his voice just fits them so perfectly.  This one is called Wonderlust King.  I actually saw Gogol on New Year's Eve a few years back, around '09, and it was the most amazing show.  Not only are the songs good but the shows are.  Eugene had contortionists, dudes dressed up as robots, and tons of friends and family come on stage and go throughout the audience.  If you ever get a chance to see them, I strongly suggest you do.
