Dark Mean

It seems as though my music genre of choice this years is folk.  I recently bough Devendra Banhart’s breakout album, Rejoining in the Hands, I’m loving Bon Iver, and I’m really looking forward to Rock Plaza Central’s new album.

And just recently I’ve come across a great new band: Dark Mean.  They may not be folk per se, but they are certainly folky, with a banjo featured prominently.  But their music also includes a hint of techno-beeps.  You should check them out – especially because they are giving away their 4-song EP for free on their website.
