Belgium Lads

Filed Under Album Picks 

It took a little bit of searching but I finally found a little bit of information on Monogold. Confusing at first because it appears that there are two different bands who share the same name… I was perusing the halls of emusic and came upon their new self titled album… This band hails from Belgium and they certainly captured my attention… Solid bass lines matched with whirling guitars, they mix a little funk with a little rock/pop on the side… They are very difficult to describe, but  I fell in love with a couple of tracks… A few diamonds in the rough…

I could have sworn I should have had today off… It was Presidents Day here in the States, it is one of those odd holidays where you never know if you have it off or not… I never seem to have it off it seems… It was a slow start nonetheless. It was pouring rain and the wind was howling, Puma was snuggling right next to me… Needless to say I didn’t get into work until noon…
