Video Of The Week: Ratatat - "Flynn"
-
Artist:
-
Album:
-
Track:
Ratatat's official video for "Flynn" off of their lovely LP3, is so silly and equally as amusing. The video filter going on is perfect and the fits the track like a glove. The crackling fire through the doorway behind them and their zany movements win this one for me. Thanks again to Marco for sharing this one with me. Check it out by clicking on this link, or by looking to the right.Ratatat - ...

I Hate It When This Happens

Track:
Because I'm all like, "I rated that album a 7.7 BEFORE Pitchfork rated it a 7.8, meaning I didn't just read their review and make up my mind afterwards," and then you're all like, "Yeah right," and then I'm all like, "But seriously it's true, I thought the new Vivian Girls album was pretty good but not great, and I made that decision before Joe Colly," and then you're all like, "Whatever."And t...

Throw Me The AWESOME

Album:
It occurred to me this morning that despite the fact that I've told literally everyone who will listen how much I love the new Throw Me The Statue album, I have not yet done so in blog format. So here I go, imposing my viewpoint on you, the reader. And my viewpoint is this: Creaturesque is wonderful.It definitely is a different album than its predecessor. Moonbeams had some amazing highs ("Lolita"

Video Of The Week: The Books - "Take Time"
-
Artist:
-
Track:
The Books have a way with editing and compiling sound. They know what they are doing and they manage to make something fresh and unique with each track they release. That goes the same for their videos as well, as you can see from this week's VotW. From their upcoming DVD release, Play All, is the video for 2003's joyous "Take Time." The video really captures pure happiness quite well, as does the

YE-LID News: ADORABLE ALERT. Headlights Is Returning.
-
Artist:
I'm not sure how many members are currently in Headlights, so that picture may be wholly out of date. But it DOESN'T MATTER because the creators of the most purely listenable album of 2008 have returned to my life! Whenever a band has an adorable pop sound, it's like my brain can't help but compare their songs to those off of Some Racing, Some Stopping. See they, reference hearts. SO cute.Wildlife

Track:Nadine (Memory Tapes Version)
It's almost as if they came together for an exclusive FG meeting and were like, "What could we do to make Darren love us even more? We already did afropop better than Vampire Weekend ever could...How about we start doing some electronic shit?" And then they did.And then it worked.Fool's Gold - "Nadine (Memory Tapes Version)" (Download)

So, we're at that point in the year where I scramble to find something to write about in between the craziness that is my life. Like I mentioned in my last post, I just moved back to school, I've worked every day I've been in the city, and I've been spending the rest of my free time making up for a lost summer by consuming alcohol with my friends like it's my job.Today, I've decided my post wou...

Just Listen: Music For Your Heart

Artist:Music for Your Heart

Album:Turning Marvel
-
Track:The One
Music For Your Heart dropped like a late-90s ray of sunshine into my inbox. First listening to "The One", I felt like Stuart Murdoch had died without me knowing and had been reincarnated as Sandra Zettpunkt, the soft-voiced singer of this project. It sounds like classic Belle and Sebastian, with the light guitar hook, barely-there drumming, and third-person narrative. If You're Feeling Sinister...

Billboard Thursday: Miley Cyrus - "Party In The U.S.A."

Artist:
Every once in a while, the Disney machine just gets it right. Mind you this doesn't happen too often, but still, Miley's "See You Again", Demi's "Don't Forget", and the JoBro's "Lovebug" all come to mind off the top of my head.Add "Party In The U.S.A." to that list. There's some real pop perfection hidden here, with the summery synths, the Jay-Z and Britney references, and Miley's modern day L....
