Song of the Day for October 1st, 2010: :"O.N.E." by Yeasayer

And the song is....O.N.E. by American experimental rock group Yeasayer. Yeasayer orignate out of Brooklyn, NYC,  they formed back in 2006, and they consist of members Chris Keating, Ira Wolf Tuton, Anand Wilder, Jason Trammell, Ahmed Gallab. This band is quite an eclectic mix of sounds and have some serious artistic/psychedelic elements to their productions. O.N.E.  can be found as the 5th track on their 2nd studio release album titled Odd Blood, which was released in February of 2010. The album peaked at #63 on the US Album Chart, and #64 on the UK Album Chart.

VJ Samsonite's "Hot New Music" song of the day is....

...Skeleton Tiger, by Aussie psychedelic rock band Tame Impala. Tame Impala is made up of Kevin Parker (lead guitar and vocals), Dominic Simper (bass guitar) and Jay Watson (drums and backing vocals), and they come out of Perth, WA. Their name refers to the impala, a medium sized antelope. They've won a few awards, and are reminiscent of a few bands like the Doors, the Grateful Dead, the Association, etc. I like their style anyway, so be sure to check them out for yourself. This song, and three others off their EP (released in 2008) went to number one on the Australian Independent Record Labels chart, see wikipedia for more info.
