Download: The Common Grackle should be more common.

Introducing Common Grackle! The bold and adventurous Canadian duo Gregory Pepper and Factor! Common Grackle adds in sounds from different categories, such indie rock and hip-hop, creating their own unique sound that avoids being cornered by the word genre. They are under the Fake Four Inc. Record label currently.

The Great Depression, Common Grackle's newest release, has put a face to what I imagine indie music to be today. Their sound ranges from something I'd listen to while gazing at clouds at (All The Pawns, Track 4), to something I'd listen to while sitting back drinking beers with friends (Magic Beans Featuring Ceschi, Track 10).

The slow-to-medium pace of the beat, and the sarcastic tone of the lyrics --Never gonna Twitter about it! -- give the songs an addictive quality. Not as addicting as Dance Dance Revolution or heroine (if you're into that sort of lame thing), but enough that you'll fill up a good amount of you're day blasting them from your Honda Eclipse or Razor scooter.

Here's my favorite track All The Pawns and the video for their album-title track The Great Depression (and a Free Download) again featuring the talented Ceschi.
