The mass music online world or at least a lot of the blogs and webzines I follow are being heavily dominated by electronic/pop/indie music. It's not that I'm complaining or anything. However, it is really nice to see that there's a lot going on in the alternative rock scene. You know, that crisp and raw and powerful rock sounds that kicks-in with the very first chords and doesn't let you relax for a second.

My latest obsession is an upcoming band which is doing exactly the same.  The UK quartet Lower Lands just released their second EP called Canvas, which you can download for free from their bandcamp! "Eat The Rich" is so far the song that really stoop out in my mind, perhaps because of the slight touch of grunge I pick up every here and there through the track. Either way - very talented band and an album worth checking out. Enjoy!
