Find it hilarious that trying to look up "daft punk" in this thread brings up one result for daft punk and a ton of results for 'this band is like daft punk'.

Oh well, there's always good stuff to mine.

A Lot Like Birds - Plan B (2009)

A pretty epic Sacramento band thats been receiving a lot of publicity lately. If you're into weird genre bending metal/experi-metal; you've just found your new favorite band.

Here's what underthegun had to say about them....


--- Quote ---A Lot Like Birds is a troupe of seven kindred yet wildly different souls from Sacramento, California.  Founders Michael Franzino and Michael Littlefield, multi-instrumentalist and bassist, after growing out of respective ska and punk rock scenes, collected an eclectic group of musicians from miscellaneous genres and projects: originally intended as guests on Michael and Michael’s debut album, “Plan B,” Cory Lockwood, screamer, and Ben Wiacek, guitarist (of post-hardcore project, Discovery Of A Lifelong Error), Athena Koumis, violinist (of folk-rock project, Life as Ghosts), Juli Lydell, vocalist/keyboardist, and Tyler Lydell, drummer (of experimental-folk project, The Dreaded Diamond), one by one, all unexpectedly became integral units of the project, banding around the Michaels.

Music on any kind of epic scale is not exactly America or the world’s cup of tea, but for those who get it, it’s considered an art form. If that the case here, I think A Lot Like Birds may just be the Rembrandt we’ve all been waiting for. Luckily for all of you, the band has made their debut record  FREE FOR DOWNLOAD on their Myspace [link below]. Here’s my advice: Download it, find the finest pair of headphones you have, light a few candles, kill any room electric lighting, and allow yourself to be absorbed in this record. You won’t regret or forget it.

The Autumn Kaleidoscope Got Changed was a bunch of songs the band distributed to friends and family in 2001 by burning CDR copies from Tobacco's dad's computer. It's a lot more acoustic than other BMSR stuff but no less awesome. Also features early versions of tracks off of the band's first two albums. Very delicious.

I've had the last two weeks off work and I was not looking forward to working today, but this has totally made up for it.

Maybe it's trying to tell you something.  The A Lot Like Birds album looks promising.

The first song on that album is call Ted Bundy's Thanksgiving Dinner
