day 21, album 21


album of the day:
soft black "the earth is black" ~

so MK made it veryyyy clear to me at my birthday party that i have yet to take any of his recommendations for this challenge. i texted him at work today, asked him what he wanted me to listen to, and he sent me soft black. he mentioned nothing more of them except that he hoped i would love them and this record. let's take a listen...

i'm really enjoying this album. a band i would love to hear live and kind of just dance myself silly to. i can't pinpoint exactly what kind of sound this is, but i'm hearing a little modern rock. a little folk at some points too. a lot of soul - lurve soul! some parts are really soft and make me feel snuggly and other parts of the record make me wanna dance, which are two of my favorite feelings. to capture them on one album is serious awesomeness. MK, you do not disappoint!

moral of the story: thanks MK :)
