2012 Oddyssey..

Three of the most beloved alternative darlings have released their  new albums and all three are really a pleasant surprise.

The ethereal voice of Montreal - based Claire Boucher a.k.a. GRIMES and her light electronic pop in her third and best lp ''Visions'' are not so simple things to deal with.
All the mainstream '80's pop,'00's r'n'b and the ''Liz Frazer'' catalyst, delicately mix with this talented young artist's weird but sweet  pop personality and style of writing, creating a potential classic for this decade. 
Born To Lose by Sleigh Bells
The noisy pop of SLEIGH BELLS   in their second and best lp '' Reign Of Terror'' is far more stronger and more powerful from their ''simple'' heavy debut '' Treats''. 
Derek Miller's layers of the best post-metal guitars I've heard lately, wrap Alexis Krauss's sugar,hazed, post-shoegaze and '90's bubble pop vocals,leaving the heavy post-hip-hop beats creating small earthwuakes in the back. 
The ''post'' factor is a transitional definition of a refreshed rock sound that I wish to grow strong in this decade.
School of Seven Bells - Lafaye by Vagrant Records
  School Of Seven Bells continue to give us warming waves of fine, crystal clear ,beautiful new wave pop,in their third album '' Ghostory''. 
No doomed stories,no dark paths.Only soothing,tripping,danceable,dreamwave pop of higher class. 
All these three plus tunes and artist of similar directions,older or new will be our stops in today's edition Chrisodd's Musical Oddyssey . Live from 3  to  5 slt at THE VELVET.
