It's lunch time. So I thought I'd include some music fun on my break.

Two new articles up on Spacelab for you to check out.
This is about the new Okkervil album:
Okkervil River Brings Us The Stage Names

And this is kind of "a big deal" piece for me:
Amazon.com Makes Bold DRM-free Move
So that is exciting news.

You can also head over to Indie Music Xposed to read up on Mach Schau and White Rabbits while also perusing other news and listening to emerging new artists music.

I've been listening to "Boys Like Girls" a lot lately. Their self-titled album came out on August 22, 2006 and clearly I missed it then, but am so up to speed now.

Their song "Thunder" is my current favorite. Specifically for these lyrics:
I dont wanna ever love another
Youll always be my thunder
So bring on the rain
But also because the whole vibe from the song is perfect.

Martin Johnson, John Keefe, Bryan Donahue and Paul DiGiovanni are from Boston, MA. They kind of sound like Dashboard Confessionals or Saves the Day; both of which I love so this is a compliment I assure you.

They are currently on tour with "Hellogoodbye" and then they will be on the road for the Vans Warped Tour all the way through the end of August.

Take a listen:
