mewithoutYou - Brother, Sister

So I first heard this whole album on a dark night in Istanbul, and I bought it this week. In short, it is awesome. It's sort of indie-rock 'post-hardcore' arty-farty music with spoken-word poetry/singing/wailing. It goes from soft to chaotic, from English to Arabic (in one song), from understandable to confusing. Sound stupid? It's not. Listen to them here.

Dir En Grey

Well I came across the infamous Dir En Grey on Purevolume, and it looks like they've turned hardcore, after their previous incarnation as self-pitying wrist-slitting whinge-rock. Have a listen to Clever Sleazoid.
