Nine Minutes of the best new music you'll hear: The Lisbon Maru by Fuck Buttons

You know when you hear a song once, and immediately know that it's going to be on heavy rotation for a while?

This is one of those songs.

The Lisbon Maru by the fabulously named Fuck Buttons. As it has been lately, credit goes to Jay for this awesome find.

The National - About Today (live) from "The Virginia EP"

My favorite version  of one of my favorite songs. 8:25 minutes of pure, unadulterated awesomeness. Best part comes in at 5:03. Leaves me breathless every time.

"There Goes the Fear" - The Doves

Clearly, I should have purchased the "500 Days of Summer" soundtrack since first "Sweet Disposition" and now this, The Doves' "There Goes The Fear" are both from that rocktacular album. "There Goes the Fear" is 6:54 of pure brilliance, which sounds like the love child of Local Natives' "Airplanes" and The Helio Sequence's "Hallelujah" if something that spectacular could actually happen. And apparently it can.

"Your Love" (Outfield Cover) - Bon Iver

The best version of this I've heard. Recorded live at Bon Iver's last concert (for a while...let's hope that's actually the case) at Riverside Theater in Milwaukee on October 11, 2009

"Your Ghost" - Greg Laswell

Heard this on the latest episode of Gray's Anatomy - it's a cover of Kristin Hersch's 'Your Ghost' - and it's ephemeral and gorgeous. Perfect "cozy fall day sitting by the fire" song. (If only I had a working fireplace...)

First heard about this song from Ryan Vance, and haven't been able to stop listening to it. It reminds me of something...can't quite place it. HELP ME, INTERNETS...it's driving me nuts!

And yes, this *IS* from the Twilight: New Moon Soundtrack. (And you can just kindly STFU right now, thank you very much.)

In an attempt to exorcise stupid fucking pity-party inducing Bonnie Raitt songs from my head, here's some Tokyo Police Club:

In other #MusicMonday-related news, "A Brief History of Love" by The Big Pink is also pretty phenomenal.

Reminds me a bit of GlasVegas with a touch of The XX thrown in for some additional epicness.
