VALENTIGER-Power Lines to Electric Times: GIVEAWAY!

So Valentiger‘s “Power Lines to Electric Times” is actually a 2009 release, but I’m just now getting my ears on it.  At first listen, I thought, “Eh.  A little Byrne, a little Neil Young, it’s pretty standard indie.”  But as I moved through the record, I heard a vulnerability and rawness that went beneath the lo-fi surface.  I found tunes that are catchy because they’re real, not because they’re trying to be hip.

Valentiger’s record is the cure for indiecool, the remedy for topically infectious music that tries too hard to have a real impact.

Check out a few tunes . . .
