Bioluminescence by Dr. Frown

Plat made another catchy pop tune for the Bioluminescence Song Fight, but lost out to an even catchier rival tune.

Another great song by a band I'd long wanted to post on here, Two Weeks is a single from Grizzly Bear's excellent album, Vekatimest.

Sick As A Dog by Brad Sucks

Brad's relaxed, resigned delivery is amusingly at odds with the melodramatic lyrics of Sick as a Dog.

Silversands by Recue

The low rumble underneath the crackling of these Silversands creates a tension between the various percussive and melodic pieces moving above it.

This is from the EP Between Stations, a solid record throughout, with some really gorgeous cover art. Give it a look.

Driving Forever by State Shirt

State Shirt's Sounds Like You takes sound samples submitted by anyone on the internet and works them into songs. Despite being a part of that project, Driving Forever sounds a whole lot like State Shirt, which is no put down.

Let Go by jj

Let Go shifts fluidly between a singer left nearly bare, with sparse notes flitting around her voice and lush orchestration.

There's also a downloadable video to accompany this tune.

There Are So Many Possibilities by The Sober Irishman

There Are So Many Possibilities has The Sober Irishman singing in front of a chorus of himself. The song then shifts to a harp solo to close it off.

Ninja Caravan by Ninja 9000

Enjoy this Ninja Caravan while you can. I wouldn't expect to ever notice another.

Courage by Puce

Puce tries his hand at rapping in Courage. It doesn't quite work out for him, but the break down at the end is cool enough to make up for it. And get him a Song Fight win.

Idyll by Benoit Pioulard

Idyll has a hazy and ethereal tenor to match its title. It has an unusual vibrancy for such a laid back sound.

Biomythos by Revolution Void

Biomythos starts with an intriguing tone, then jumps right into a catchy bassline that doesn't let up for much of the length of it's songs short life.

Available in highly recommended vorbis format.

Do It For Captain by ADD

A little reverb on the delayed vocal harmony gives Do It for Captain a slightly off feeling that makes it stand out from the Song Fight crowd.

Lost... by General Fuzz

Lost... ironically, is one of General Fuzz's most more concise compositions. It's a spacey ambient electronic track.

Killalady by Justine Electra

Killalady's downtempo electro-pop expertly builds and releases tension over whispered lyrics that are at once alluring and unsettling.

The Wolves by Bon Iver

For Emma, Forever Ago is a beautiful album of simple folk tunes.The Wolves spreads itself across the center of that record.

Caskets by Damien Jurado

There's a compelling grittiness to Caskets, a dark and catchy hook to get caught on.

Coin Operated Boy by Dresden Dolls

Coin Operated Boy is the song that broke the Dresden Dolls, and the video shows the playful interactions between Amanda and Brian that makes them such enjoyable performers.

Jerk It by Thunderheist

I have to admit, what I like about Jerk It is the attractive woman moving her body. The shots of her face as she focuses on her arms, mastering a pulsating motion, they're so hot.

Fresh Born by Deerhoof

There's a ridiculous load of recent Deerhoof videos over at kill rock stars. Fresh Born has playful percussion alongside their usual adorable rock antics.

Black Swan by Sunset Rubdown

Black Swan is one of my favorite tracks from Dragonslayer. It's got a dramatic quiet/loud dynamic with some cacophonous passages and, best of all, meaningful lyrics that invoke striking imagery.

http://www.scjag.com/mp3/jag/blackswan.mov

Little At A Time by Magnolia Electric Company

Little at a Time is a deep, slow lament that starts by looking back. The video has you looking back at the scenes of a traveler: motels, streets, empty fields passing by.

Brother Sport by Animal Collective

Animal Collective has always been a band I wanted to like more than I actually liked. But Merriweather Post Pavilion is a record I can both admire and enjoy. Here's a live performance of Brother Sport from that record.

The Return Of The Guitar by if:then:goto

The Return of the Guitar is aptly named. Up to this song, much of Art vs. Science revolves around the piano. But this song is a guitar centered rock tune.
