Loafing This Week for Thanksgiving
So we are taking the week off here. There will be no more posts on WaterCoolerGossip until after Thanksgiving. To tide you over until then, here is a mix of bands/artists I think you should be paying attention to right now. These are mostly new tracks. Maybe there will be some informative posts when we return but for now one sentence explanations will have to do. Get them now because they will be gone when we return.

Rock Plaza Central - I Am An Excellent Steel Horse (MP3) :: Yes, this band really appears to have made a concept album about being an electronic horse and it is pretty good.
Van She - Kelly (MP3) :: I am sorry I missed this group at CMJ. The Aussies are still the best at reviving the 80s in new ways.
A Hawk and A Hacksaw - God Bless The Ottoman Empire (MP3) :: This is the least new track in this mix but I just got it. It still takes you to another world.
The Apples In Stereo - Energy (MP3) :: This song is so simple but so fun. Their new album should be out soon.
Panda & Angel - Dangerous (MP3) :: In the same vein as Ladytron or My Blood Valentine.
Alela Diane - The Rifle (MP3) :: This song is a vivid story. She is from the south and her album is called The Pirate's Gospel.
Prinzhorn Dance School - Eat, Sleep (MP3) :: These three just signed to DFA. This is a taste from a single that came out today.
