I Almost Woke Up In Your Arms
Perfectly matching the dreamy, hazy mood I'm in today are NYC mainstays Asobi Seksu. Coming across like an Asian version of My Bloody Valentine, main songwriters Yuki and James Hanna "meld together lush yet wonderfully crushing waves of white noise in variation with synth-driven pop delicacies and melting-pot aesthetics including narratives sung in combinations of English and Japanese." The track Sooner was put on a mix for me several years ago and quickly became a favorite track. For your listening (dis)pleasure, songs off of their Self Titled debut album:
Asobi Seksu: Sooner
Asobi Seksu: I'm Happy But You Don't Like Me
Asobi Seksu: Walking On The Moon
Asobi Seksu: Let Them Wait
::EDIT:: If you're a Placebo fan, head on over to Skatterbrain right now to grab 2 tracks off the upcoming new album Meds.

there's a new asobi seksu album coming up, too!
That's what I hear! They're also playing @ SXSW.
Oriental is for rugs and food. Asian might be a better choice of words.
duly noted. Sorry for the obvious oversight on my part!
asobi seksu is on the verge on majorness. won't be long till we hear them in TV commercials or the oc. enjoy em while you can! looking forward to the new album and seeing them again live.
