Vancouver's They Shoot Horses Don't They? is the latest group to agree to have stuff in the Podsafe Download area of the site. If you haven't heard them it's definitely worth your time to grab a couple of songs.
According to Spin.com:
"Sharing the name of a 1969 film wherein contestants endure a grueling dance marathon, They Shoot Horses, Don't They? craft oddly danceable songs that combine the sound of a circus with a bombastic punk aesthetic, and lite avant garde threads for an affair worthy of Barnum and Bailey's three-rings. Pick Up Sticks is full of indie pop tunes dressed to the nines with beating horns ("The Guest"), tinny guitar riffs ("One Last Final Push"), and ranting harmonies ("Wrong Directions") -- it's an exuberant, gypsy-like, folk-tastic cacophony for fans of early Modest Mouse, XTC, and Mr. Bungle."
