What’s this? Blitzen Trapper, Foals, and Stars all together in the same place? That can only mean that it’s time for the songs of the month.

Foals – Miami
Foals are a great experimental band and their debut album definitely showcases their talent. Miami is a fun track with a music video that features a fight between bodybuilders and prostitutes that ends in a dance party. How could anything go wrong?

Stars – We Don’t Want Your Body
Amy Millan, Torquil Campbell, and Evan Cranley of Broken Social Scene unite for Stars’ great fourth album. We Don’t Want Your Body is the electronic, fast paced, song, among the more typical indie pop tracks. It may be the odd man out on the album but that only makes it even more lovable.

Blitzen Trapper – Dragon’s Song
Everyone needs a little folk music in their life sometimes and Bltizen Trapper is the perfect choice for a conscientious indie listener. The country style croon and acoustic sound, which may have detracted from the song in less skilled hands, only adds to the track. Dragon’s Song will have you making your way to the beat of the drum.

Fol Chen – In Ruins
Fans of the silhouette, Fol Chen, have made a good record full of synths and good beats. In Ruins is the perfect example of what Fol Chen can do. This fun song will wake you up, make you dance and do everything but leave you in ruins.

Wolf Parade – Ghost Pressure
Expo 86 was one of the most anticipated albums of the year and it didn’t disappoint. With tracks like Ghost Pressure it’s easy to see why the album is so good. The electronic background is all but perfect and complements the upbeat, yet haunting, tone the song has.

The Love Language – Heart To Tell
The Love Language’s first album was a product of the lead singer’s downward spiral after a bad breakup. However, with Libraries, the second album, Steve McLamb proves that one needn’t be depressed or a drug addict to write good music. This album is much crisper and has more upbeat songs, even if the lyrics aren’t. Heart To Tell, itself will become one of your favorite songs once you hear the percussion breakdown, I guarantee it.
