Map of Africa: great blends of sound, questionable name
"LCD Soundsystem revamping Phil Collins" is how Dave at blog The Rawking Refuses to Stop characterizes this band, Map of Africa. He's posted two tracks, one which surely bleeds echo guitar and the crooner type on the mic. Browse the self-titled album on iTunes, and you'll hear strains of dub, synth-rock, ambient floaters and funk, too. Brazen name for two white dudes, but hey, I like the record.
