MP3: Jarvis Cocker - Cunts Are Still Running the WorldNOTE: Today's contribution comes from the Matt Giordano, whom I just saw in the flesh about 2 weeks back. He exists?

The Best Song Ever: Cunts Are Still Running the World
Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak...
-
Artist:
MP3: Susanna - JailbreakI've been sitting on this song forever. Seriously, I've moved it down on my uploaded mp3s list on the server countless times, hoping to one day write a post to do it justice. I uploaded it on October 29th of last year... jeez.So I don't know if I can finally fulfill my self impossed obligation to "Jailbreak", but it's time to dust it off. Here is what you need to know: S...

Artist:
MP3: Brilliant Colors - Should I Tell YouMP3: Brilliant Colors - Not This OneHere's a quick one: I went to the record store the other day and the owner told me to check this 7 inch out by Brilliant Colors as it was up my alley. Intrigued by what it could sound like, I took the chance and that man was right: this is great. I'd say it reminds me of lo-fi punk pop riot grrrl fun smile garage great...

A frightening journey through Little Hells.

Artist:
MP3: Marissa Nadler - Mary Come Alive"Little Hells" is not a title to be taken lightly: this album is fucking scary. Sure, you can be allow yourself to be fooled by Marissa Nadler's familiar reverb soaked vocals or the sense of hope found in new instrumentation, but BE WARNED! You will die here if you go in seeking light.Yes, this record is wonderful. We knew that. Nadler's last one, "Songs III...

St. Vincent walking on a street, looking at the strangers.
MP3: St. Vincent - The StrangersIt took me a long time (probably too long) to really absorb and love St. Vincent's last record "Marry Me". Since I've heard this song "The Strangers" from her upcoming "Actor" lp, I think I am fully on board. I especially like the dirty guitar action at the end. Very excited to hear the rest."Actor" sees release May 5th from 4AD. Pre-order right here and get a fr...

Sorta like a dream? No, better.

Artist:
MP3: Air France - Collapsing At Your DoorstepIt's interesting how an iPod can change the way I take in records. I've had one for years, but over Christmas I got one of the newer, fancier models which has caused me to put anything on it I can find. Imported are cds from the library, promo cds I'd normally never touch, zip files in the email or digital vinyl downloads. I've found I need it all, i...

Keep It Hid & Keep It Fresh, Dan Auerbach.
-
Artist:
MP3: Dan Auerbach - My Last MistakeThe very existence of "Keep It Hid" asks two big questions of it's author Dan Auerbach: are these songs different from his main outfit the Black Keys and are they necessary? The answers that are audibly given say it's okay to take a sigh of relief."Keep It Hid" is chock full of special songs for your mixtape or pocket that could have been fermenting for years ...

Heartless Bastards are the greatest band on the top of the Mountain.
-
Artist:
MP3: Heartless Bastards - The MountainMP3: Heartless Bastards - Could Be So HappyI can't imagine the Heartless Bastards' band name is literal. They seem like some genuine, large hearted humans. I'm sure they chose it because, as bad asses, you need a bad ass band name. I get that. Their newest effort "The Mountain" does seem like it can be taken literally, however.When listening to the record, ...

Reviving with Abe Vigoda.
-
Artist:
MP3: Abe Vigoda - Don't LieIt's the make over nobody asked for: in less than year's time, Abe Vigoda return with their most defining and rewarding work yet, in an ep titled "Reviver". A strange title and concept, considering this is a band that sounded near fucking perfect on last year's "Skeleton", but when music gets changed up to something this good, there is no reason what so ever to compla...

With the stress of the holidays, a broken computer and drowning at work, I fell behind and I am sorry. We're beyond looking back at a year that was and totally into looking forward at the year that's yet to be. With 2009 started up, I figured what a time to say he...
