Friday Five: The Dying Days of Summer

If I had to pick five songs that marked my summer, these come as no-brainers to me.
No doubt that Think About Life have made the top of my list for albums of the year, so far, but this song is deathly addictive.
The Lovely Feathers recently had their "too hot for TV" video for 'Lowiza' premiered on Playboy.com (Click here to check it out). The level of irony is through the roof on this one, but doesn't that make them all the more "indie"?
Looking forward to The Balconies' CD release show next week in Wakefield at the Black Sheep Inn. Joining them will be Whale Tooth and Lei Vollebekk.
Closing out this year's Williamsburg Waterfront free concerts with Jay-Z in attendance propelled Grizzly Bear to the height of indie superiority.
Diamond Rings is The D'Urbervilles' John O's most recent project. With a slot at this year's Pop Montreal and a thumbs-up from Pitchfork, Mr. O has cred from the get go.
Enjoy!
