Pictured: We usually only wear two piece suits when doing the show. Shorts count as one “piece.”
Hey guys, we’re almost one year into doing our radio show. It has been a fun ride thus far, filled with good music (that andy picks) and ok music (that I usually pick). […]

Pictured: Wye Oak. The kind of kids who acted like dinosaurs for the whole third grade.
“You know your secret’s safe with me,” promises Wye Oak’s Jenn and Andy. “If you feel young.” Their new album, If Children, feels like a Sunday morning of frolicking between bed sheets and letting just little bits of light in […]

Pictured above: Mystery Jets aren’t exactly NOT sketchy.
Mystery Jets is a band from ole Brittania that draws on The 80’s, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, and cool, big hair. Their new album, 21 is equal parts haunting reverb and rockin’ party music. It’s really very hard to explain.
They’re a “prog” […]

Pictured: Mark Ronson knows your songs better than they know themselves, not unlike music jesus.
Mark Ronson is the producer behind British wunderkinds/absolute fuck-ups, Lily Allen and Amy Winehouse. When he isn’t ruining young girls lives with booze and drugs (to be fair, I think Ronson only hits the booze.) He’s saucing […]

Pictured: The Coral not being endangered at all. Get over yourself Australia.
These guys are good. I emphasize good. There isn’t anything here that hasn’t been done before, but sometimes there are just songs that get stuck in your head. These guys are from across the pond, and specialize in catchy, riffy, sixties rock. This is […]

Pictured: Adam Morrison. Rest assured, he won’t be going number 1.
We’re not immune to “Best of” lists over here at Peervalidated.com. Sure, it’s stupid and insipid to quantify and measure art (and incidently measuring how it is better than other art), but at the very least it’s a good way to showcase some of what […]

Peervalidated will update our website everyday for the remainder of this old year with a few of the great things we missed. It could be because we’re lazy, it could be because we didn’t hear of it, it could simply be because we forgot. Here’s one such band/song/genre/etc…
Pictured: Rock Four. Israelis in denim.
How could we forget […]

Pictured Above: Hip as shit.
Wes Anderson is the master of all soundtracks. You can keep your Paul Andersons and your Cameron Crowes, but I’ll bet my buttons that ole’ Wes will always come out on top. His knack for finding the perfect, seemingly never-heard-before song from that band-you-thought-you-knew is uncanny.
I’m a huge Kinks guy, and […]
From left to right: Kyle, Andy, Trevor
We have a present for you. Andy and I, along with our roommate Trevor, each recorded a Christmas song at the luxurious ‘my bedroom’ studio. With the purest hearts and balmiest warm wishes we mailed a few cards to friends. Unfortunately, we didn’t bribe the postperson enough not to […]

I Might Be Wrong sort of sounds like Pinback, if the members of Pinback consisted of people that your little sister hung out with. Oh, and that those said friends were also German. Oi vey.
Like the last Metric album, […]

So, this is a pretty hot track. Anybody who’s ever heard any of Adam Drucker’s stuff knows you’re gonna be on a bit of a wild ride, at least lyrically. I just read an interview with him regarding the new Subtle album. It started out pretty normal, but about halfway through I was completely lost […]
