Jenocide - Slumber Party Mix (Unsigned, 2009). Saw this today when I was browsing through Facebook. Was especially intrigued since I plan to spend some time in Halifax again this summer, and am looking for bands to check out. This is rough on the edges, electro-trash type stuff. Raw, powerul and well, intriguing.

Nouvelle Vague - Bande a Part (Peacefrog, 2006). Coolest band I had never heard of. They play stripped down acoustic versions of 80's new wave tracks. What caught my attention was their cover of "The Killing Moon" by Echo & The Bunnymen. It's one of those tracks that I remeber hearing as a kid, but really appreciating as an adult. The decomposed cover version brings a new sense of desperation to the lyrics, especially "fate up against a will". I am still suprised as to how often this song captures how I am feeling about the world, even 25 years after its original release.
