    Band of Skulls

    Band of Skulls new album "Sweet Sour" is due out Feb 21 (great - trust me on this one) - listen to the full album stream - http://www.spin.com/articles/band-sk...l-album-stream

    Search youtube for videos of singles, "Devil Takes Care of His Own" and "Bruises"

    This is my 2nd favorite band of the last decade and wanted to share w/ my friends here.

    -Dino

    PS - If you want more, here's a live performance from SXSW2010, playing their first album.

    full album listen is available on Spinner from now until next Monday ... Sweet Sour by Band of Skulls

    not familiar with them and haven't listened yet but the "sounds like Raconteurs" works for me

    Re: Band of Skulls

    I picked up "Chimes of Freedom: The Songs of Bob Dylan" at the Post Office this morning. Listening to some of the songs now, I was surprised to find Band of Skulls on it.

    Here is their cover of "It Ain't Me Babe" - a very minimalist interpretation:

    USA review of Sweet Sour

    http://www.usatoday.com/life/music/r...lls/53084656/1

    Drummer Matt Hayward definitley has the John Bonham mojo on the first album.

    Video of full gig (15 songs) from XOYO, London, Feb 15, 2012 is posted on moshcam.com. Lots of other great bands to explore, too. (Sorry if everyone knows about this site - I just found it).
