I love trolling myspace. I don't think there's a single thing outside of listening to music and trolling other blogs for music that I like doing more. Sooo many bands just waiting to be discovered there. Its quite a nice time for music fans, with so much available out there. It has its downfalls, though. Hours and hours of listening to songs that just don't do anything for you. But then along comes a band like Hero Cycle. And magically those hours all seem well-spent again. Hailing from Burlington, Vermont, Hero Cycle have a sound that's a little bit shoegaze, a little bit rock, and just a smidge of indiepop (but a whole lot of fun). It makes for quite a great sound when mixed together. They only have an EP out at the moment, but every song from it is worth two albums worth from half the bands I've listened to today. Here's a couple tracks to hear what I'm talking about, and if you can check out two more on their myspace right now, how cool is that?
MP3: The Hero Cycle - Breathing In
MP3: The Hero Cycle - You vs. Them
Their myspace has two more songs off their EP and if you look real hard on their links, you can find the rest of the EP. Find their homepage here.
