Time to finish my decaf & email correspondences, press tomorrow's garments, rest my feet and lean into bed—I need a full 8 hours before the 6:25 am garbage trucks monsters disturb the stillness of my little flat and propel me awake once more.

I just illegally downloaded (gasp no! really!?) the new Swan Lake album "Enemy Mine" and gave it a listen over. Already from a first listen I can tell it's a lot better than their first album "Beast Moans"; however, considering that that album was a pretty terrible mess of "hey I'll just play when I feel like it and maybe you can sing when you want", I guess that's not saying much.It irks me th...

What happens when you throw three of indie rock's most eccentric songwriters together in a remote cabin on Vancouver Island -- with only guitars and mics for amusement and the nearest bar over a dangerous mountain pass? Swan Lake, that's what."Swan Lake is Daniel Bejar from Destroyer, Carey Mercer from Frog Eyes and Spencer Krug from Wolf Eyes and Sunset Rubdown, a sort of Canadian indie all-st...

Possible a.k.a. - Mr. "Finger-in-Every-Pie".Listening to the new Swan Lake album, and being reminded of my love for Sunset Rubdown and Wolf Parade via "rhymeswithrawk's 'Oh Canadia' post":http://mog.com/rhymeswithrawk/blog_post/28086...

This above is why I'm so sad. It was also the reason that I've been so happy. Happy until today, that is. Above is the cover of the Swan Lake album, Beast Moans. For those of you who don't know about Swan Lake, well, it's an indie-supergroup of sorts made up of these gentlemen.These gentlemen are as follows, from left: Dan Bejar (of Destroyer), Carey Mercer (of Frog Eyes), and Spencer Krug ...

In the category of musician collectives and geographically centered side projects, our brethren to the north seem to have the US beat. With the successes of Broken Social Scene and the New Pornographers already in the country's back pocket, soon arrived the additional folklore that surrounds city centres such as Montreal. A city where casual musician friends show up at a venue to play an improm...

First of all, great great album that I have recently gotten into. It is completely worth your time, I promise. Swan Lake is a cryptic, intricate indie band made up of Carey Mercer of Frog Eyes, Daniel Bejar of Destroyer and The New Pornographers, and Spencer Krug of Wolf Parade, Sunset Rubdown, and Frog Eyes. Basically, Gods. Their debut and currently only CD "Beast Moans" is a complicated and ...
