Silver Jews Biography

Source: Wikipedia

Silver Jews are an indie rock group, formed in 1989 by writer David Berman along with Pavement's Stephen Malkmus and Bob Nastanovich. Sometimes regarded as a Pavement side project (Pavement drummer Steve West has also been a member of the band), in fact "The Joos" were formed before Pavement, and 1996's The Natural Bridge featured none of the Pavement musicians, offering listeners a quieter folk album without the inimitable influence of Stephen Malkmus' guitar and vocals.

    New Silver Jews...funny songs for terminally depressed people

    (28)

    It looks like I'm interviewing David Berman of the Silver Jews next week and so I have been spending a good deal of time with his upcoming Lookout Mountain Lookout Sea. My favorite track, and this partly reflects what's been going on in my life the last couple of weeks, is "My Pillow is the Threshhold." It's about dreaming about people you've lost forever, and it's just kind of beautiful.... MORE

    Blog post image preview A new Silver Jews album is an event in my book. It happens about once every three years and I end up looking forward to it for months, like back in high school when everyone knew exactly who there favorite band was. Here are a few things about this upcoming event that are stoking the flames of awesomeness: 1) it's called Lookout Mountain, Lookout Sea. 2) Songs titles include "Party Barge" and "Candy Jail" 3) this fantastically ridiculous cover art featuring Babar climbing a c...

    I am with my S.O. in Buffalo for the summer, using his computer, and am therefore not able to use the mog thingy. I am, however, getting to listen to the rest of Tanglewood Numbers, and I am INTO IT .

    I just picked this album up again. I think this is the 4th time I've had this album. I'll try not lose or lend this one. Seemed like a good time to pick it up. This would have to be my favorite Silver Jews record. Two listens and then I'll get into the Motorhead and cheap beer. (queue Unenthusiastic half-assed air guitar solo)... MORE

    It's a post about a band that I want to like. I am going through my list and Silver Jews is on it. So, I go to itunes and I see these songs: How Can I Love You If You Won't Lie Down
    Sometimes a Pony Gets Depressed
    Honk if You're Lonely
    and
    I'm Going to Love the Hell Out of You And I think to myself this looks very promising. But when I listened to the previews it sounded like somebody's drunk uncle singing to himself in the corner because everyone was ignorin... MORE

    Blog post image preview First off, I call dibs on using "Punks in the Beerlight" as a band name 10 years from now. This record is really hard to describe. For one who listens casually, much may be lost on initial spins. It's a folk-punk-countrified mess of a record, and I don't mean that as a bad thing. What holds it all together is Dave Berman's oddly engaging lyrics and intruiging delivery. From the opening lines of "Punks in the Beerlight" (where's the paper bag that holds the liquor/... MORE

    over the weekend, a dream became true. tis cheesy, but that's the way it went down. i was so floored to hear the silver jews were breaking their decade-plus reputation of not performing live that i bought two tickets to see them in nyc back in dec. unfortunately, i never made it. they finally made their way over to my side of the continent and where i could be easily disappointed i was absolutely not. stephen malkmus opened the show solo-stylee playing three old pavement jams...
