Sufjan Stevens once had a plan so ambitious, so preposterous, that it seemed like one of those ‘just crazy enough to work’ things - write a concept album about each of the 50 states. He started off with the midwest when he released the lush “Michigan” in 2003, before carrying on with the magnificent 2005 [...]

Like most of you might have already heard, the new Spoon album, titled “Transference“, will be out in early 2010, in January, making for an awesome kick start of the new year. Judging from the few new songs the band have been playing live on tour and “The Mystery Zone”, a new leaked song off [...]

Last week, Tegan and Sara’s sixth full length studio album, “Sainthood”, dropped with tons of praise from both critics and fans alike. Upbeat and catchy it’s nearly impossible not to like the Canadian twins, and I’m sure Conan loved them last night when the girls stopped by and played the banging “Back In Your Head.” Tegan [...]

Last week, I told you all about how exited I was about the new Yeasayer album, post in which I shared a few details, scarce as they were, regarding the band’s new material. The hunger for more fueled by that little news piece, might have irritated a lot of you, but today we’ve got a [...]

A few weeks ago The Whigs gave away the infectiously catchy title track off their upcoming new album, “In The Dark“, as a free digital download on their website. The same thing happened today as well, when another song off the Athenian trio’s new album was put out for free download. The new song is [...]

Anytime I receive a press release that labels a band “an extremely exciting arts collective [and] a perpetual multimedia art installation“, a tiny emergency klaxon in my brain - wedged somewhere between the hippocampus and the primary auditory cortex, so the sound is both unbearably loud and very memorable - goes off. The klaxon reminds [...]

Now, who would’ve thought that New Age are actually …mhh, weremice? Oh, and unlike the stereotype of werewolves on a moon light rampage you’ve encountered in books and movies so far, the band shed their furry skin and morph on nights packed with dusk-till-dawn lo-fi parties. At least, this is how New Age have been [...]

I’m really failing, at the moment, trying to understand Anthony Schepperd’s directorial vision in Ape School’s latest video for “Wail To God.” I’m certain of one thing, though: it’s awesome! I mean, how can you go wrong when you mix in apes, violence, robots and MOUNTAINS OF BOOBS all together? You can’t, I tell you. [...]

Looking back at 2009, with only a few couple of weeks left in the year, I can now safely say it was a great year for music, and one of the first albums to come to mind justifying just this would be St. Vincent’s “Actor.” It’s serene and crazy, soft and loud, and just about [...]

One of the most interesting debut projects of the year is, without a shadow of a doubt, the Austin electropop Neon Indian. The band’s sound is an interesting mix of lo-fi and reminiscent ’80s cheesy disco beats, delivering in the process some incredible synths and pop hooks. It’s not nearly as danceable as Alan Palomo’s [...]
