Music Monday

I'm going to push on y'all one of my favorite Scottish bands, Biffy Clyro. They are from Ayrshire (where NBH is from) and NBH's been mistaken for a member of the band more than once, but that's not why I like them.



I love, love, love that Simon sings in a full-on Scottish accent. Not only is it pretty hot, I just hate when people put on Anglo-American accents and lose their own accent. Simon also has some of my favorite Beach Boys lyrics tattooed on his chest- if that's not cred, I don't know what is.

He's also done a side project called Marmaduke Duke; I don't love it as much as Biffy Clyro, but still enjoy listening to him sing. Google "Rubber Lover" if you fancy giving them a listen!

I started listening before I read the rest of your post, and my first thought was, "thank god he's singing in his accent." lol I wish everyone would sing in their own accents. :D

And I like your Music Monday.

I can't get that Marmaduke Duke song, 'Rubber Lover' out of my head. IT'S SO DAMN CATCHY.

Also, I have just gotten myself a real, live blog. Hooray :) xx

I like it. Something about this song reminds me of Blue October.
