If eMordac won't get Carolina Chocolate Drops before I leave in a few months, I'll go for half of the Carolina Chocolate Drops. Great traditional blues.
plong: i didn't notice that monk album among the items on the one "sale page" i saw at emusic. is there another master list with more titles on sale?
Update: I spotted it on the "sale page." the whole "essentials"/"dig deeper" concept is a good idea, but these are very limited sales. hopefully they'll expand the sale items in the future. there are thousands of top-shelf titles, many near-classics, that i'm guessing are not moving big numbers at emusic, and would benefit from inclusion in a limited $4.99 sale.
Posted by ScissorMan in the Bandcamp thread. ScissorMan mentioned several styles. What comes through most for me is 60's and 70's Power Pop. They get a pretty good wall of sound cranked up on "Resolution of One".
While I was writing this I thought it might be illuminating to check out what they chose to cover on the [url=]Cover Songs 7 Inch[/url]. I'm a bit surprised by the selections, so that's going in the queue next.
"Computer music on CD for modern dance, based on oral histories of recent immigrants to the Shenandoah Valley, with rhythms from India and the Middle East and words in different languages (Mixteca, Spanish, Woloff, Russian, Ukranian, Vietnamese, Arabic)."

Spawned from Heavy Metal Rock and Indian Classic Music.
"...a full-blown electronic opera, based on Indian classical music, and yes, 'heavy metal rock.' The mystic feel of Indian music is all over the disk."
Orphaned By the Ocean by Teeth of the Sea
Have been working back through this band's discography, just got this one, which I think is their earliest. Great stuff. Instrumental psychedelic rock. With trumpets.

These got the organ|analog synth + reverbified vocal treatment. A reworking, not an homage. They pull it off pretty well.
