Rock Gets Its Marching Orders

Posted by: Alan Cross | Nov 20 2009 2:00PM

This is a little weird. Temple University in Philadelphia has a marching band. Part of their repertoire is a Sum 41 song. They do a very credible version of “Fat Lip” at halftime. Here’s the video if you wanna see how they do it.



Sounds like a pretty cool band. They’ve also covered The White Stripes and My Chemical Romance. Sure beats another time around the field with John Phillip Sousa.

5 Songs You Gotta Hear Today
  1. Miss Li

    Bourgeois Shangri-la

    Miss Li is Linda Carlsson, a Stockholm-based singer-songwriter. She's doing well with her latest album after getting some tracks in TV shows and commercials, including this one in an iPod ad. Upbeat, jazzy vocals and semi-cabaret pop.

    Sounds like Hello Saferide, Beatles, Anna Ternheim
  2. Marina and the Diamonds

    Hollywood

    Marina Diamandis and her crew are being hyped by the BBC as one of the five acts to watch in 2010. Single came out February 1.

    Sounds like Gwen Stefani (but less OTT), Britney Spears (but WAY less trashy)
  3. Basia Bulat

    Gold Rush

    Former Polaris Music Prize nominee returned with her second full-length album on Jan 26 . Plays an autoharp.

    Sounds like Feist, She & Him, Sarah McLachlan
  4. Make Your Exit

    Kids

    This unique-sounding group incorporates brass and harmony into their music. For ambient-folk lovers, this Toronto quintet is refreshing.

    Sounds like Corduroy, southern version of The Framework and Arkells
  5. The Folk Implosion

    Natural One

    The 1995 movie "Kids" had, among other things, a great soundtrack. This song actually ended up being the now-defunct Folk Implosion's biggest hit.

    Sounds like slower Guided By Voices, Hayden, Beck
