mp3: Cold War Kids- "Hospital Beds"


KCRW's Morning Becomes Eclectic
official site: Cold War Kids

Cold War Kids are worth checkin' out if you haven't already, but my personal pick, catch the other show...The National at the Troubadour.

Sidenote:
The Rolling Stones features a little snippet in their current issue under the Hot Web Trend section, that "...the geeks who control the music blogosphere destroy the bands they love..."
The bands they mention:
Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
Arctic Monkeys
Tapes N Tapes
Cold War Kids

According to the charts, all the bands mentioned in the list are in their decline as a result of the 'geeks', except for the Arctic Monkeys. Especially since the Arctic Monkeys were awarded the Mercury Prize (whatever). Now keep in mind, The Rolling Stones has Fergie on the front cover of their current issue and calls her album "The Dutchess is a shameless solo debut full of Eighties-style electro bangers...".
Uhm, who's the real geek here?
