I’ve watched this video several times during the past week or two, so I suppose it’s time to make it the video of the day. I don’t know much about Hayward Williams, but I definitely should buy some of his stuff, because I really like this song. Both the voice and the melancholy reminds me of Jason Molina. Maybe more the early work under the name Songs:Ohia than Magnolia Electric Co.

This is a marvellous song from the new Possessed By Paul James album Feed The Family which is out right about now I think. It certainly looks like I’m gonna order that album tomorrow or thereabouts. This is such a fantastic song and I watched this clip more than ten times tonight. Thanks for ninebullets.net for posting it (I knew PPJ beforehand, but had not seen this video). Apparently it’s from a movie called The Folk Singer and it also looks like I’m gonna buy the DVD or the download of the film from the Slowboat Films website tomorrow or thereabouts.

There’s some good times going on at the moment, if you are into finnish pop and rock music. The new Sweatmaster album that came out two days ago is absolutely wonderful and next wednesday 1st of september will deliver two hopefully (and most likely) magnificent pop albums, because new Penniless album and new Lemonator album will hit the stores and your heart. This is a brand new video Hail Of Bullets from the upcoming Penniless album A Cab To The City. I love it and will be camping outside the record store to get the album early on wednesday morning. If you watch this, I will probably meet you there.
