I have listened to them. And I liked them. But I need to listen to them again. I think I only listened once or twice. Thanks for the reminder!

I find out about these guys the same way that you are finding out about them: somebody told me. And, I don't think that these folks are major, necessarily, but they are damn good. Hope that you dig them like I am digging them. -

There is a treasure trove of free downloads of some pretty fantastic music from a cadre of new/current artists at these web sites: http://kikodinucci.com.br http://www.jucaramarcal.com/downloads http://www.passotorto.com.br/site/Downloads.html It's a collective or something, I think -- they all play on each other's records and they all make some pretty fantastic music.Just wanted to give the heads-up for anybody whop might be interested.

I busted my ass trying to find these tracks, but persistence paid off and I got even more than I bargained for. A real treasure trove here. The sound is pretty all over the place, combining straight-up indie pop-rock a la The Smiths, with surf guitars, virtuosic stride piano solos, skronk jazz saxophones, and straight 4-on-the-floor punk piledriving rhythms—in any combination, on any given
