"Indigo Meadow" is the first song on the album and it's my favorite. It starts off with a retro beat and a really cool sound, then about 2 minutes into the song the electric guitar comes out and they totally rock.

The Black Angels
The Black Angels remind me a lot of the Black Keys and a little of the Beatles combined. They're SOO good, they have a lot of variety with their songs. Their most recent album, "Indigo Meadow", I discovered from looking on the Waterloo Records website and seeing what music the people working there were listening to. The band is going to ACL and I cannot wait to see them live. If people aren't listening to them now, they will be for sure after they see them at ACL. They really know how to rock.
Echotone
I love it when movies are filmed in Austin, let alone a documentary. It's so cool to see places that you've been to in a movie. But Echotone was really cool to me because the bands in it were straight up Austinites. Especially the band Belaire, they were the definition of hipster. I thought it was so funny how they wanted to design all the t-shirts and CD covers rather them getting them electronically done. It's really depressing to see bands that try so hard not get the result they want. They put so much heart into their music but they just can't get exposed big. Austin is a perfect place for people who want to play music, and they definitely shouldn't be replacing music venues with condos or apartments. Maybe in some places, but not all around Austin, there's enough already. But as the population increases, I hope they don't get rid of what our city is famous for.
