I am totally in love with the band Unkle. Very heavy, dark, dense stuff. And I feel like I really "discovered" them. Like they aren't that popular but I know I am just kidding myself. They are probably huge in Europe. At their heart is James Lavelle - an extremely talented guy who has been making music in London for a decade. You can see a recent interview here. The first Unkle album featured DJ Shadow. Now we are on the third album - War Stories - which is more rock than the previous ones. Lots of guest artists on this one including Ian Astbury from the Cult. One of the best rock shows I ever went to was in the Felt Forum in NYC with The Cult. We stood in front of the sound board where Rick Rubin presided. Anyhow, Unkle is so wonderful. You can get more here at a blog dedicated to them.
