burn
So I received a lovely email in my inbox today from the IFPI due to my last post (which has since been deleted by blogger). My hope is that some day the artists and labels will realize that it's not album sales that generates revenue, it's ticket sales and merchandise. Most artists give away their music for free now just to get you to see them perform live. The only people making money when al...

Two leaks for the price of one Grizzly Bear and Metric
So I know it's been a while since my last update and I've had a ton of catching up to do on the music scene so we'll start here. Below you'll find Grizzly Bears newest piece of art crazy work and a digital bundle from Metrics new release entitled Fantasies. Not a huge fan of "Help I'm Alive" but the Pink Floyd cover and the accoustic version of "Sympathy" are a-may-zing.Fans who pre-ordered Fan...

Hot Chip, Geese, Wyatt...OH BOY!
Oh Hot Chip how I love your spooktacular swizz beatz. On their super combo remixy album they brought in the king of the experimental prog rock world, Robert Wyatt to re-touch 3 songs from their 2008 album ‘Made in the Dark’. Geese (Emma and Vince from The Elysian Quartet) was also brought in to rework “We’re Looking…” and “One Pure Thought” which went from straight-forward sex rom

MC5: the original "hyped before the album was released" band
Let me preface this by saying I'm a huge fan of Michigan's MC5. My love for their music shifted my interest to an entirely new genre. From 1964 to 1972 the MC5 shook the masses eardrums. Hard rock, blues, psychedelic and garage rock that ripped your face off.MC5 was the original "hyped before they even released an album" band which earned them a cover appearance on Rolling Stone in '69. They we...

Emily Haines: Between the Bars
I came across this Emily Haines (of Metric fame) acoustic cover of Elliott Smith’s “Between the Bars” this morning. It was like love at first listen for me. Can not wait for "Fantasies" to come out April 14th (or for it to leak). Man I miss Elliott Smith....Download Metric- Between The Bars

N.A.S.A: The Spirit Of Apollo...it's like there's a party going on in my ears
N.A.S.A's (North America/South America), "The Spirit Of Apollo" will probably be the coolest record you'll hear this year...think Girl Talk but even bigger. N.A.S.A is the amazing creation by Squeak E. Clean and DJ Zegon. The all-star roll of artists featured on "The Spirit Of Apollo" include Karen O, Ol’ Dirty Bastard, Tom Waits, Kool Keith, Kanye West, Santogold, Lykke Li, Sizzla, Amanda Bla.

Blips, clicks and Bjork style tunes: Karin Elisabeth Dreijer Andersson
I'll start by saying I've never been the biggest fan of The Knife. Beatz? amazing. Voice? Not so much. Blips, clicks and haunting vocals make up the new self titled record from Karin Elisabeth Dreijer Andersson, the lady half of The Knife. I'm not sure if I'm a fan of this one yet. The lyrics sound a little too Bjork-esque with a sprinkle of the beatz I so thoroughly enjoyed from The Knife. Cyb...

The front man of a 2 member band does a solo project? Dan Auerbach's new release
Have you ever dreamt about what the Black Keys would sound like as a 4 piece instead of a duo? What if they one day added some keyboards and fuzzy bass to their tracks? Dan Auerbach of Black Keys fame will be releasing Keep it Hid, his debut solo LP to be released on Nonesuch Records on February 10th which will fulfill your wildest dreams. Bluesy, soulful, indie country jams with a smatter o...

Pete Doherty finally put down the pipe and recorded something
Thank you Graham Coxon (of Blur fame) for coaxing the amazing musical talent out of Pete Doherty and getting him to record Grace/Wastelands. Hopefully this will be the album that puts Pete's music onto the map here in the U.S. I've gotten to listen to most of this album and have to say if it doesn't get "blog lovin'" I don't know what will this year. Official release date-March 10th.Grace/Waste...
