The Spores  When you think of spores, you hardly think of anything good. Mold spores? Bad. The Spores? Way good.This Los Angeles based band just released their debut album, Imagine the Future on June 27. They're fronted by Molly McGuire who has recorded with Frank Black, Queens of the Stone Age and Peaches. The rest of the group include guitarist Greg Biribauer and drummer Kenny Pierce. Their first single, Don't Kill Yourself is about three minutes of pure enjoyment and interestingly enough the group added the "Don't" to the title of the song to avoid any potential legal problems. But don't worry, these spores are good and you won't want to kill yourself.

They are starting to tour again and you can find their dates on myspace. Silversun Pickup's first full-length album, Carnavas, will be available on July 25.

I'm also going to add Roy Orbison to that mix because Sverre Stein Nielsen's voice reminds me a wee bit of Orbison's.By looking at the lead singer's name you can also guess that Funky Nashville doesn't come from Nashville. They actually come from Denmark and describe their music as country groove. I get the groove, the funky and the country. I can imagine their music being included on a soundtrack for a B-movie spaghetti western where the music is way better than the movie. Funky Nashville's U.S. debut album, Hitch a Ride comes out on July 11. Check out the title track below as well as the first single.
