The Dears have always been a band that i have enjoyed, but none of their albums ever quite put me over the edge in terms of “wow, this band is awesome”; they always reminded me of a more subdued TV on the Radio, or a less catchy Morrissey. They are about to release their fourth [...]

I've been spending far too much time this week engaging in a few absurdly reductive debates on race on my high school's interweb bulletin board, with this lurvely tune by The Dears acting as the soundtrack.

2005 was a year of profound change, depression, fun and excitement all at once. I had some amazing times that year and made a new friend, whom I still consider my musical match and a dear and thoughtful friend. It was so great to find another soul who geeked out over music like I do (and the same bands at that) and could talk about mixing consoles or dj dork stuff. He threw this song out at me one night in passing and asked me if had heard it. I hadn't but the instant ... MORE

It's been way too long since I've last mogged, but preparing applications for post-graduate study is a lot of work and unfortunately mog is not the priority I'd like it to be. But I've been having a lazy day, so I should do a recap of the last few concerts I've seen! The Dears - Nov. 25Starlite Room, Edmonton I haven't seen the Dears since they came through Edmonton in 2003, so this was quite a treat. The last time I saw them was one of the best concerts I've ever seen... MORE

Today in Pitchfork, i read a news post that i think really needs spread as far and wide as possible. Burglars broke into a rehearsal studio that is shared by Mike Nash and the Dears and cleaned the place out. Not only is the band suffering the loss of so much gear, its guitarist Patrick Krief lost his Fender Strat guitar and says, "I don't know how I'll go on with out it. 16 people (friends and family) pitched in to buy me that guitar (of which I had been dreaming about...

Please take some time to listen to "Gang of Losers" by The Dears. This is one album you can't get tired of because each song is a gem with doses of lyricism and changes in the musical patterns, making each song a voyage with unpredictable routes.

Something I haven't heard yet again. How exciting!I love new music, well new to myself ofcourse. Some of you I suspect are in the know, and now. Duty calls will finish post later..... Back in action, The Dears.... they were good, I was surprised that I liked them. Maybe it's a live thing? So when I buy the cd, I'll get back to you. Not too much to write on them, I was laying down with my hat over my head, in a sea of people just listening, and relaxing. The songs were hear... MORE

recently discovered these.
Thry sound pretty good to be honest a cross between the smiths (lead singer really does sound like morrisey), Bowie and Strangelove.
