Latest obsession: CocoRosie. I was operating on an ignore autopilot for a while, until I stumbled across the Kevin Lyttle and Akon covers.. holy subversion. Now I think it's all so sexy.

This week:
beautiful boyz by CocoRosie
I Love the Valley OH by Xiu Xiu
Up Above the Sea by John Vanderslice Artist: CocoRosie
Album: Noah's Ark
Track: Beautiful Boyz This week's sampler is a palate cleanser - I just got done digesting cornball genius Jens Lekman's latest (review forthcoming) and need a chaser that's a little more...bitter. Starting us off is french sister duo CocoRosie teaming up with the eponymous Antony. It's haunt... MORE

Thanks to LadyC, CocoRosie is saving my Monday. Come, let them be Your Salvation.

I was relieved to know that we wouldn't be sacrificed a concert after hearing that U.S. audiences lost out on the Cocorosie tour due to visa problems. I sincerely wish that those who bought tickets didn't have to miss out because this concert proved to be one of the best I have seen this year.
Branching out towards the Rhone river, we arrived at my favourite Lyon venue, 'Le Transbo'. My last gig here was The Roots so as you can imagine, this place is very special to me. ... MORE

So I packed myself and the lady to go to the city of brotherly love full of love to see the sisters CocoRosie. One last check of the digi-mail and alas the band was arrested no details but I assume some drugs deportation issue? What does this mean? I am gutted. It is such lovely music. It's like winning the local coffee shop slogan contest everyday, that is to listen to the sisters two. Free show NYC Wintergarden May 19th. I'm going to train it from D... MORE

wow! This is THE year for cancelling tours! Like a bad fashion statement, the sisters of CocoRosie have cancelled all N.American dates! They sent out a my$pace bulletin that says the band got arrested(!), and now their schedule has been altered to reflect the cancellations. Montreal on May 15th remains on the schedule as does a free show in NYC on May 19th. Europe is untouched. Their label, Touch & Go does not have the news on their site yet, nor does the band's... MORE

Hey, sorry to bug you all, but my friend and I were forced to miss the CocoRosie show at the Warsaw in Brooklyn. If any MOGgers have photos from that concert that they don't mind sharing (they're for the NYU newspaper) and I'm sure will get credit for, would you send them on to me. Thank you, eternally grateful, etc. ~Christy... MORE

I had some good karma stored up at the local record store, even though I hadn't been in for months. I fell in love with CocoRosie this past week, and decided I needed some on vinyl. What do I find a few records into the bin? Noah's Ark. It's been such a sexy, happy Spring weekend! I love their voices - sometimes childlike, sometimes operatic, sometimes tribal. Sometimes Bianca is like a Native Billie Holiday. The music is enchanting, haunting, sexy, playful... MORE

Brooklyn based indie rock sisters Sierra and Bianca Casady have come back from seperate side projects to record a follow up to 2005's stellar 'Noah's Ark', to be released on Touch And Go records on April 10th. The sound that CocoRosie concoct is like a collage of several different styles, with elements of classical, dreamy pop, nu-folk, and even hip hop. On paper it is a musical trainwreck, but on record it is at times gorgeous and haunting, and never boring.

Another day, another great album this year. I think 2007 is shaping up to leave 06 in the dust, musically speaking. I am listening to the new Cocorosie album that comes out April 10th I believe. Excellent.
Here is a cut off of it...let me know what you think.
