Maybe its the rythmic tones or the almost sinister sounding vioce, either way, Julian Plenti will send chills down your spine (both good and bad). Our first double feature of a singer begins with Julian Plenti, whose real name is actually Paul Banks and is also the lead singer from last weeks featured band Interpol. Why do this? Banks has actually been performing under this alias for over seven years and not only that but some of the songs featured on his debut album Julian Plenti is…Skyscraper he wrote over ten years ago! The man is absolutely brilliant and in this debut album he incorporates many different sounds, he even brings in a symphony for acouple killer songs. Disregard the song Unwind, its not only terribe, but it doesn’t even fit the feel of the rest of the cd. That being said PLEASE check out Girl On the Sporting News it is curently my new favorite and is not the type of song you only listen to once. As for the rest of the album, chek it out, and like always you won’t be disappointed!

 

   It was brought to my attention the other day that the readers maybe aren’t grasping the concept we’ve thought up for Musing Music, therefore ill take the liberty of delegating to you what its all about… There is an astronomical amount of bands out there with only fractions getting any love so what we plan on doing in this musical endevor is to tour all different types and genres while presenting this universal concept: If it sounds good then you bet your ass we’ll be featuring it. That means new and old and everything in between. With that being said, I bring to you Interpol. The band consists of four ridiculously talented guys who have a passion for deriving music that is not only catchy but very thought provoking. Weather your diggin the mind consuming slow grooves in Rest My Chemistry, or your hittin it face first with The Heinrich Maneuver, you will fully comprehend what complex, and damn-good, music sounds like. Check out the entire CD titled Our Love to Admire and trust me you won’t regret it.

 

 

PS- Think you know of an amazing band that you think should be featured? Or maybe even just one really good song in particular? Let us know and maybe you’ll see it up on the Musing Music!
