A read through of Noble Beast's lyric sheet isn't only intimidating, it's damn near impenetrable. A listen to the music, though, and there's no hint of the bookish opacity that the lyrics would suggest.

It’s his most natural sounding release–organic is another word. While 2007’s Armchair Apocrypha was a sleek, cavernous record, Noble Beast sounds lighter, less [...]

There's always been something about Andrew Bird's music that has attracted oddballs. Whether it's the idiosyncratic curiosities that Bird weaves so deliciously between the layers of each of his songs (handclaps, whistles, loops, samples, glock et al) or simply because he chooses to sing from a perspective that sits him right on the cusp of mainstream pop. culture, there's long since been an inn...

He pairs it with his typically q

It all started with an innocent little post on an old Richard Buckner album and grew from there. Through the help of some friends/guest contributors and the cooperation of some ...

I saw Andrew Bird play recently. I have so much admiration for this charming multi-instrumentalist/ pitch-perfect whistler, and when this song came on my i-pod, I felt the urge to share it with others. I don't know who made this video, though.Enjoy!

More like last three nights ago, am I right? Anyway, it's Monday, most of our Halloween hangovers are gone, and it's time to get back to the music. The night before Halloween found a little bit of Halloween-centric music, with Weezer performing on Letterman again, this time dressed in their custom Snuggies, while Alice in Chains brought their dark brand of rock to Conan. Meanwhile, the pheno...
