Cody – Songs ~ Me Myself And My Music

Cody is a post folk band from Copenhagen and I immediately fell in love with the Nordic music. It combines soft melodies with the amazingly deep and often slightly melancholic voice of the main singer.

Dead Man’s Bones ~ Me Myself And My Music

Probably you know Ryan Gosling as a good looking actor from the dramatic movie The Notebook or the comedy Crazy, Stupid, Love. However, he not only has the looks but also the voice. I had no idea that this beau was in a band. Dead Man’s Bones were founded in the year 2007 and consist of Ryan Gosling and his friend Zach Shields.

Les Yeux Sans Visage – New Age ~ Me Myself And My Music

Punk’s not dead. We all know that. But Post-Punk is not dead as well. If you listen to this EP you’ll probably be thinking that they are an English New Wave band from the late 70ies or early 80ies. Sorry to disappoint you, because your guess would have been completely wrong. It’s much better because this band released their EP New Age in 2009. What even astonished me more was the fact that they are not British at all. We actually have something in common – living in Switzerland.

My Feel Good Playlist ~ Me Myself And My Music

About two years ago I made a so-called “Feel Good Playlist” for a friend of mine as we both enjoy listening to the quite similar music. And although I created this music list for my friend I listen to it whenever I need some comfort or motivation. And yesterday was definitely a day when I should have listened to it, but I often I forget that I have it on my iPod. However, I thought I could share it with you. So without further ado – let’s get happy! 🙂

Editors – The Back Room ~ Me Myself And My Music

How could I forget that I have this album in my collection? The Editors, an English rock band released in the year 2005 a what one could call indie-rock, post-punk album. The astonishing thing about it is that this powerful and well-conceived album is their debut.  However, one would never guess by only listening to it that it was produced in the 21st century as the sound reminds a lot of the post-punk wave in the 1980ies. Not only the music but also the singer’s deep voice is reminiscent of great bands like for example Joy Division or R.E.M.

Alt-J – An Awesome Wave ~ Me Myself And My Music

Hello, I am back again 🙂 Thank you for not letting me down and sticking to my blog. I really needed these weeks in order to focus on my upcoming exams. However, now I have more spare time to invest in blogging, writing and taking photographs – really looking forward to it. I wondered what this post should be about. And after giving it some thoughts, I realised that a new music review was due and why not presenting an album which I listened often while studying for my tests.

Placebo – Sleeping With Ghosts ~ Me Myself And My Music

I cannot precisely recall the first time I heard the band Placebo. It could be as a soundtrack title of a TV series or on the radio. However, the album Sleeping With Ghosts was the first one I bought and since then I kept on purchasing with great joy their others. Moreover, listening to this album brings up beautiful thoughts of a wonderful time. I connect often music to specific moments I experienced and every time I listen to it again I reminisce about it.  However, the time linked to this album, I will keep for myself 😉

The Clash ~ Me Myself And My Music

Now, let us talk some music history. As you probably already know from my introductory post to this blog series, I not only like alternative and indie rock but also the wild, chaotic and rebellious punk music. I hope that everyone listening to punk knows this band that actually marked with this album the origins of the British Punk in the late 70s. I am talking about the punk band The Clash. 

Modest Mouse – We Were Dead Before The Ship Even Sank ~ Me Myself And My Music

Welcome to a crazy world of independent rock! It is the world of the American band Modest Mouse. The first time I heard a song of this amazing band was in an episode of the popular teenage drama The OC California. As you probably already know from a previous post, one could say that I am kind of hardcore OC California fan.

The Good, The Bad & The Queen ~ Me Myself And My Music

It was in the year 2009 or 2010 when my boyfriend found this album for sale in our schools library. He persuaded me to buy it as he was sure that I would enjoy listening to it. My past-me did, to be honest, not genuinely enjoy it, as it was too experimental for me back then. But my present-me cherishes this varied and somehow a bit different album a lot.
