Goddam, I love this rag-tag group of Welshmen and women! Taking a page from the Book of Supergroup, written by Broken Social Scene and edited by The New Pornographers, this team of seven (!) is anything but lazy. Here's the new single + video from their as-yet-untitled forthcoming album --their third full-length release in just about as many years. It's a fun, kicky nugget of post-rock/pop that...

The concept is quite simple: a group of people listen to the same song and give their opinion as if they were in the same room listening to the radio at the same time. Stein said a bus is a bus is a bus, some said it was post-modernism, others said it was unreadable. Duchamp's The Fountain is called art by some, nonsense by others. Stein hit Duchamp in the nose and put it the wrong way up, Stei...

Whether they are big hits that are played on the radio all summer long or intimate tunes placed on a mix tape by a summer lover they will forever be etched in your memory as a huge part of the Summer of Whenever.

The wife and I tripped down to Madison Friday night to catch the free Titus Andronicus/Los Campesinos! show at Der Rathskellar. It was our first show at Der Rathskellar; we've been to The Annex and the High Noon Saloon before, but never made it over to the Union (which houses Der Rathskellar for those that aren't familiar with the UW Campus) to catch any of the shows the WUD puts on. However, a...

14. Los Campesinos! We Are Beautiful, We Are Doomed As good as Hold On Now, Youngster is Los Campesinos! second record of 2008 was the one that showed that the band has depth and won't just be sticking to one theme or idea for their recorded output. Yes, this record is still knee deep in the realm of twee music but it takes the joyous, happy sounds of twee and pairs them with some miserabl...

Perhaps last year you remember Dale (www.mog.com/dale) gathering all the half year lists. Not only was this fun, it was also informative, because this way you could discover all kinds of albums you perhaps hadn't listened to yet but apparently other moggers are very high on! I can honestly say it was the way I discovered and started to love without barriers The National.Dale, having a busier li...

Mogstars: 8/10Twelve seconds into the album and I’ve already been pinned to the wall. Within two minutes I am already exhausted, it seems more like taking a jog than listening to music. Thankfully at two minutes forty the eclectic burst of opening energy finally affords the listener some breathing space. Three minutes per song and just as many chords per-track, this is a vigorous workout of in.
