Addiction of the Week 2.1: Beautiful Small Machines

Happy New Year, fellow Nerds and Nerdettes! Funny, AotW (Addiction of the Week) 1.0 only had one post (on Wakey!Wakey!), but since 2012 is already here (yikes!), AotW has to start a new edition--2.0! (Anyone, it makes it sound spiffy.  Like it's iTunes or something.)

So to ring in the New Year, I thought I should share this little indie folk-electronica band I've been really liking lately--Beautiful Small Machines (if you've heard of Bree Sharp, this is her new project).  I'm tempted to buy this duo's EP, Robots in Love, especially after I'm pretty much obsessed with their song "Counting Back to 1", which, to me, sounds like a mix of Metric and a spunkier Au Revoir Simone or the The Submarines.  Listen to it below, and see if you get addicted, too!  (And catch the Ender's Game references!)



Another song with very, very interesting lyrics is "Robots in Love", which is basically about a broken-hearted nerd(ette?).  Sounds like Beautiful Small Machines should be a welcome addition to any Nerdette's playlist--what do you say? :)
