Toujours Toujours, the first solo record from Brazilian Girls cofounder, Sabina updates the classic ye-ye music that was exploding in France, Italy and Spain in the early 60s. Imagine Nico and Serge Gainsbourg having cocktails. As matter of fact when asked about Toujours, Sabina says, I want to bring people together, make them mingle, dance, sing and discuss, thats what life really is. The New York Times says its, Hard to imagine a better poster girl for polyglot New York pop and Rolling Stone calls Sabina simply, glamorous. |

Electricity By Candlelight / NYC 2/13/97 On the night of February 13, 1997 Alex Chilton and his band were getting ready to play their second set of the night at the Knitting Factory in New York City when the lights went out. What happened was this album, a spontaneous off the cuff performance. This is Alex thinking on his feet, in the moment, bouncing songs and ideas off the folks that stuck around for a real one-of-a-kind exchange. --- as close and personal as it gets. |
Electricity By Candlelight / NYC 2/13/97 |
Home Address For Civil War With their son in tow, duo Adam Hawkins and Kate Perdoni left Iowa to tour the country, each watching the baby while the other was on stage. When their van broke down in Greensboro, NC, they formed Eros and the Eschaton, set up shop and spent the next year making their debut LP Home Address for Civil War. Their brand of shoegazer dreampop brings to mind the greats, and comparisons have been made to My Bloody Valentine, Slowdive and Yo La Tengo. They by no means copy those that have come before them as much as give a friendly nod. Maybe their pal Sergio said it best: Youre not a wash of reverb, youre a cloud of love. |
The Plough & The Stars The Plough & The Stars is a retrospective of New Jersey band Speed the Ploughs 30 year career. It includes a 17-track Best Of CD culled from the bands first 4 albums, a split 12 LP with six new songs and five live tracks from a 1993 radio appearance, a 16-page booklet, and a download card with access to all that and much more. A total of 38 songs. Past and present members of the band are represented, including Feelies members Brenda Sauter (bass/vocals), Stanley Demeski (drums), Bill Million (guitar/production) banjo master Tony Trishka, Mountain Stage guitarist Michael Lipton and former Blood Oranges mandolinist Jimmy Ryan, among many others.. STPs unique brand of chamber pop sounds as fresh today as it did in 1984. |
The Year Of No Returning The first time on CD for Ezra Furman's self released The Year of No Returning. He swears it is not meant for entertainment but he doesn't mind if listeners find pleasure in the grooves. This cycle of ten songs designated for the months of the year (Jan and Feb. are missing) aim for the self-professed "lofty goal of real protest." Ezra Furman is a young singer-song writer with a punky spirit who is not afraid to cram a lot of words in among the hooks and jabs. While taking one for Team Earth he is determined to remain standing in the ring at the center microphone bloody but unbowed. |
Talon of the Hawk At the core of Talon of the Hawk, is the crazy hybrid of slamming rock drumming and acoustic guitar The Front Bottoms are known for, but this time the band augments their sound with electric guitars, synths, even a little accordion. Brian Sella's confident heartfelt vocals that will have you laughing one minute, crying the next and then maybe pumping your fist and singing along when you least suspect it. Talon of the Hawk rocks harder than their debut and it is more complex in both subject matter and arrangements. Once this sucker gets it's claws in, you're going to soar. |
The Purposes of Music in General Digital album Of all the bands that circulated in the late-90s political science-independent underground, the Paranoid Style, known for their pub rock moves and theories of Possibilism, have always been considered the most depraved and dangerous, the most likely to take all the beer and leave. What did they want? What did they really believe? Demos have been passed around for years, but it's only now that we have an official release, The Purposes of Music in General. Finally! This is a singular musical document, shaded by influences from The Mekons to the 'Mats to Anne-Marie Slaughter.- Owen King, author |
Paragraph Nights Singer/songwriter Dominic Angelella and hip hop producer Ritz Reynolds are the masterminds behind Philly group DRGN KING. This unlikely duo met by chance at a recording session - Dom had been playing in almost every band in town and Ritz had been hunkered down in the studio producing tracks for the likes of The Roots and Mac Miller. Discovering a mutual love of Brian Eno and Wu Tang, they set out on a song cycle that led to Paragraph Nights. |

The Front Bottoms LP NEW!! The Front Bottoms eponymous debut now available on 12" wax w/ a full album download card. "... the album is endlessly fascinating." - The Daily News "Top Ten of 2011" "This is a pop soundtrack for learning to live in the moment" - Los Angeles Times" If you have any love for the early punk style, garage band, mix tape, one mic recordings like I do, then you better take two minutes to discover The Front Bottoms." - www.thevinyldistrict.com |
Holy Ghost b/w Son of Wolfman (feat. Peedi Crakk) [7" single] Singer/songwriter Dominic Angelella and hip hop producer Ritz Reynolds are the masterminds behind Philly group DRGN KING. This unlikely duo met by chance at a recording session - Dom had been playing in almost every band in town and Ritz had been hunkered down in the studio producing tracks for the likes of The Roots and Mac Miller. Discovering a mutual love of The Flaming Lips and Wu Tang, they set out on a song cycle that led to Paragraph Nights, their debut full length due out January 2013. Their debut single, "Holy Ghost" is a positive, fun loving pop song with an infectious beat that simply leaves you in a good mood. Bruce Warren (WXPN/Paste) says, "This is otherworldly soulful pop for now people." |
Treatment Bound: A Ukulele Tribute To The Replacements The Replacements were rock 'n' roll legends. Paul Westerberg's songs have stood the test of time. To prove that point, Nashville's Bright Little Field have taken on some of the best 'Mats repertoire and given it the full on raging ukulele treatment. Includes great new takes on "Can't Hardly Wait," "Achin to Be" and "I Will Dare" that will have fans falling in love all over again. Their version of "We're Comin' Out" (which appeared in the finale of last season's Nurse Jackie) is truly amazing! Release date September 18, 2012. |
Fear The Dream Of Axes Shannon McArdle is a songwriting-chanteuse that never fails to make us snap to attention with her rough and tumble tales of romantic discord set to her original rhythmic takes on the likes of the Velvet Underground, the Rolling Stones and 60s girl group grooviness. Shannon spent her formative years in the Mendoza Line where she split songwriting duties with two other writers. After many a brilliant album the band went up in smoke along with her marriage to one of her band mates. Shannon exposed herself on her solo debut Summer of the Whore (2008) and now she is back to warn us with "Fear the Dream of Axes". |
This Racket Takes It's Toll After five years, two albums, a total of seventy-weeks of US tours, TV shows, radio sessions, long drives, loud nights and only one fistfight, Oppenheimer is leaving their fans with one last project to cement their legacy. This Racket Takes Its Toll will be released on Bar/None Records on July 31, 2012. For listeners who enjoyed their first two Bar/None releases and their classic Breakfast In New York single there is plenty here for fans to feast on. |
Falling Off The Sky [LP] The dB's were a highly influential rock band that recorded and toured through- out the 1980s. Composed of four North Carolinians transplanted to NYC and Hoboken, their music incorporated everything from 60s pop psychedelia to the new wave music happening at CBGBs. Along with the Feelies, the dBs were one of the original instigators of the Amer-indie music scene that culminated in the success of REM and the Replacements. Their first two albums are considered classics and after a 30 year hiatus the original line up is back for Falling Off the Sky. LP Version includes digital download card |
Falling Off The Sky [CD] |
Who's Landing in My Hangar? (Anthology 1977-84) As part of the first generation of indie-rockers Human Switchboard were transplants from Ohio that found their way into the NYC club scene of the early 1980s. Inspired by the writing of the Velvet Underground Bob Pfeifer, Myrna Marcarian and Ron Metz along with an endless slew of bass players worked up a great batch of edgy post punk rockers with battling boy/girl vocals before imploding. This collection is a must for anyone interested in the history of indie rock. |
Western Teleport Songwriter and noise pop saboteur Emperor X aka C. R. Matheny is working on a new record with sights set on an early October release. The Riverfront Times calls him a "heartfelt, imaginative song canon." Prefix Mag say, "Emperor X seems to be pioneering a musical style that combines the most effective elements of lo-fi recording, analog electronics and formula rock... the songs are fantastic." |

The Front Bottoms CD A punk band that uses acoustic guitar, indie-rock dance grooves, Springsteen-y keyboard lines (this they might deny). Its hook filled, its anthemic, its confessional. Maybe Neil Young by way of Green Day? The Front Bottoms must have heard some Replacements along the way and it seems like what Jonathan Richman and the Modern Lovers did for the Boston suburbs these guys are doing for Bergen County, NJ |
I, Brute Force, Confections of Love Brute Force (Stephen Friedland) is best know for 1969's "The King of Fuh", which was arranged by George Harrison and released on The Beatles' Apple Records. Brute Force is the rarest artist on Apple. With this expanded edition of Brute's rare 1967 Columbia debut, "I, Brute Force - Confections of Love," you will be introduced to the memorable characters inhabiting Brutopia, an alternative 1960s America in which satire doesn't bite but only nips a little, inhibitions get nudged and collapse all akimbo, and love, however weird, conquers all. That's Brute's party, a shindig for the ages. |
Glow GLOW is the new album from Richard Barone, lead guitarist and vocalist of the cult faves the Bongos. The album is a sonic delight; like a lost solo Beatle album from a glam rock future world. After taking a break from performing to produce others and write a book, Barone is back working with his friend and favorite producer Tony Visconti (along with Steve Addabbo, Jill Sobule and others) GLOW positively glows with great songs like Gravitys Pull, Yet Another Midnight and a captivating cover of Marc Bolans Girl. The king of chamber pop does not disappoint on this stunning addition to his wonderful catalog. Is there a musician more deserving of the moniker Man About Town than Richard Barone? Ann Powers, The New York Times Prince of New York Andrew Aber, Village Voice Barone knows the alchemic formula for converting an everyday thought into a powerful refrain. Tom Moon, NPR |
All Around Ralph's World The latest album from Grammy nominee Ralph's World takes you on a trip that might start in your own backyard and end in outer space. With just a little imagination, you will meet traveling dogs, flying robots and friendly caterpillars. This is family music that both kids and parents love, The New York Post even said, "entire families will sing along." Kids rock phenom Ralph's World, created by Ralph Covert, returns with a thematic collection of brand-new songs plus a few Disney rarities fans have been clamoring for! Family music's truest rocker continues to earn new fans via extensive airplay, television appearances, nationwide tours, and 4 illustrated books. As a playwright Covert also saw two acclaimed children's musicals in Chicago last year with one adapted for a hardcover illustrated book. The one-time Grammy-nominee, often called a McCartney for the pre-K crowd, is thrilled to take you on a journey using your imagination and show you All Around Ralph's World. do the potty dance |
The Noyelle Beat Standard Fare may be named after a sign spotted on a bus, but the effect is anything but pedestrian these Sheffield indie poppers are the kind of band whose name you'd happily scrawl on the cover of your school exercise book. A power trio comprising Emma Kupa, Danny How and Andy Beswick, they're set to release their debut album. Recorded in six days with an indie aesthetic that would have made John Peel proud, the album is named for a formative period in the band's development when they travelled across the channel to play at a festival in Noyelles Sous Lens, France. "It was where we felt our sound came together," says drummer Danny How. Every track is loaded with rocking melodic hooks that could make Standard Fare this year's Los Campesinos! |
Rain on the City Rain on the City is Freedy Johnstons first album of new originals in eight years. Recorded in Nashville with producer Richard McLaurin, its one of the best song collections of Freedys career, featuring a diverse array of rockers, heartbreaking twang, even hints of blue-eyed soul and bossa nova. "Johnston also seems to have gotten his stride back as a songwriter, and these 11 tunes are full of the sharp but thoughtful wordplay and unique characters that make his best work so pleasurable; quite simply, it's hard to imagine anyone else writing something quite like "The Devil Raises His Own," "Venus Is Her Name," or the title track, and his dusty Midwestern tenor brings these stories to vivid life, which listeners can soak up like they would a good book." - All Music Guide |
Fa cé-La (single vers.) b/w Raised Eyebrows limited edition Insound 7" single containing the single version of "Fa cé-La" b/w "Raised Eyebrows" (album version). |
Crazy Rhythms Limited 180 gram LP. Download card included which contains the entire album plus bonus tracks either as 320 MP3s or WAV files. |
Crazy Rhythms The Feelies, debut album Crazy Rhythms released in 1980 is finally back in print. The much loved group of hyper active indie rockers from Haledon New Jersey influenced the sound of college radio and inspired many to pick up guitars and form bands. Crazy Rhythms is a masterwork of perfectly honed minimalist rock n roll that leaps and darts into the corners of the listeners consciousness, a true sonic achievement that Rolling Stone called one of the 100 Best albums of the 1980s. Fans of the Velvet Underground, Wire and Brian Enos early solo albums will surely appreciate their forces at work. Bonus material including demos, b-sides and new live recordings will be included via download cards inserted in the LP and CD Deluxe packaging with liner notes by Jim DeRogatis Release to coincide with Feelies performance of Crazy Rhythms in its entirety at All Tomorrow's Parties Available for the first time in over a decade. |
The Good Earth Limited 180 gram LP. Download card included which contains the entire album plus bonus tracks either as 320 MP3s or WAV files. |
The Good Earth It took the Feelies six years to create The Good Earth, their follow-up album to Crazy Rhythms. The album was co-produced by Feelies co-captains Glenn Mercer and Bill Million along with REMs Peter Buck who was a Feelies admirer since his days as a record store clerk. The Good Earth was an early release on Coyote Records the label started by Steve Fallon of Maxwells in Hoboken where the group became one of the clubs most popular acts. The Good Earth featured the line-up that continues to this day. The album is an interesting mix of layered acoustic and electric guitars and their signature percussion sound. Bonus material including EP tracks and a new live recording will be included via download cards inserted in the LP and CD Deluxe packaging with liner notes by Jim Sullivan Available for the first time in over a decade. |
Here and Now hERE aND nOW is the first new collaboration in almost two decades by Peter Holsapple and Chris Stamey, the acclaimed songwriters and creative nucleus of The dBs, whose wistful Repercussion album (1979) proved influential on the careers of R.E.M., They Might Be Giants, Matthew Sweet and many others. From the opening strains of My Friend the Sun (yes, the obscure Family song from the 70s, recast as as this albums positioning statement), youll know its the goods. The album features legendary saxophonist Branford Marsalis on two tracks, drum aces Jon Wurster (Superchunk, Son Volt, the Mountain Goats) and Logan Matheny (Roman Candle, The Rosebuds) and percussionist Gary Greene (Hootie and the Blowfish, Big Head Todd) bring power to tracks such as Some of the Parts and Widescreen World, and the dB's rhythm section Gene Holder (bass) and Will Rigby (drums) join in on the atmospheric Santa Monica. "Once in awhile a record comes along that is so special, so singularly amazing, that it nearly defies criticism. The album hERE aND nOW by Peter Holsapple and Chris Stamey is such a disc.

Eleven Songs Luka Bloom, the much loved Irish troubadour, has been impressing audiences for years with his exhilarating live solo performing style. ELEVEN SONGS is his 11th album and it is a return to the bold production work of his early Warner releases RIVERSIDE and THE ACOUSTIC MOTORBIKE. In the interim he has continued to work on innovative approaches to solo acoustic guitar and his voice has developed an incredible range that rolls from deep bass tones to soaring falsetto. For the new album he has written a classic batch of songs including the catchy country folk of On Your Side and the poignant tour de force Dont Be Afraid of the Light That Shines Within You. Produced with David Odlum of the Frames. |
Firecracker People Firecracker People the sophomore effort from former Ben Folds Five drummer Darren Jessees Hotel Lights is the groups first studio album since 2006s self-titled debut and the subsequent goodnightgoodmorning EP, released later that year. Of the debut record, Harp Magazine says, The Lights prove capable of everything from gently ferocious propulsion to crystalline balladry. A virtual whos-who of the Brooklyn-by-way-of-Chapel Hill music scene, Hotel Lights features Jessee backed by band member and producer Alan Weatherhead (Sparklehorse, Camper van Beethoven, the Comas), Zeke Hutchins and Jay Brown (both of Tift Merritts band). |
Girl Graffiti It took two disparate seasonslate summer and deep winterfor Darren Jessee and his band Hotel Lights to finish their third full-length album, Girl Graffiti. The result is an album thats decidedly relaxed and exquisitely shimmering--all at once. Recorded in Richmond, VA at The Sound of Music with frequent collaborator and engineer Alan Weatherhead (Sparklehorse, Cracker) along with band mates Jay Brown and Zeke Hutchins (Tift Merritt), Girl Graffiti has the spirit of a live recording, but with a graceful, polished deliverya testament to the musicianship and sound these four seasoned players have created together over the years. |
Summer of the Whore Shannon McArdle releases her debut solo album, Summer of the Whore, through Bar/None Records on August 5, 2008. This is the first recording by McArdle since the Mendoza Line disbanded in 2007. Collaborating on arrangements with former Mendoza Line alum Adam D Gold, her album is a sparse, haunted affair that delivers a wide variety of moods and textures. Debbie Harry had her finger on this trigger in Blondie's "Rip Her to Shreds," but Shannon McArdle makes you think she didn't pull it. - Greil Marcus / SALON.com |
Fields/Aquamarine At long last for the first time on CD comes the complete recorded output of the Individuals, one of the bands that pioneered the Hoboken N.J. music scene of the early 80s along with the dBs, Bongos, Feelies and Yo La Tengo. Their album Fields was named as one of the ten best albums of the year by Robert Palmer in the NY Times in 1982. Their single Dancing With My Eighty Wives was played often on WLIR on Long Island while Walk By Your House was a hit at WHFS in DC. Produced by Gene Holder of the dBs, Fields was the first album to be recorded at Mitch Easters Drive In Studio. The re-issue also includes their first EP Aquamarine as well as B-sides, extended single mixes and alternate takes. Extensive liner notes and rarely seen photos. 21 tracks in all! "Fields yields its rewards with familiarity, springing its surprises like carefully timed bombs. Accepting this album into your home is, as one song title here puts it, a Leap of Faith. Take it and be amazed. - David Fricke/Rolling Stone This is the most impressive rock debut so far this year - Robert Palmer/NY Times (1982) |
Eisenhower There is something impossible about The Slip. Something humble and heroic, hard and tender, soft and monstrous. Their approach to rock is reaching countless new fans while still inspiring the faithful. Eisenhower stands as the their most cohesive and evocative work to date. Includes "Children of December", "Even Rats" (featured on the wildly popular video game Guitar Hero) and "Life In Disguise" (as heard on "Grey's Anatomy"). |
HELLO RADIO - The Songs Of They Might Be Giants In 1986, Bar/None Records released They Might Be Giants first album. Now to commemorate 20 years of influential music, we issued a very special tribute to Brooklyn's legendary alternative rockers. Die-hard fans can expect appearances from some pretty heavy hitters and some good friends of TMBG. Artists appearing on the album include Frank Black, The Long Winters, OK Go, The Wrens, as well as Bar/None artists Hotel Lights andJason Trachtenburg (of Trachtenburg Family Slideshow Players fame). There's truly something for everyone from the casual fan to the obsessive completist. |
Hotel Lights The stunning debut from Ben Folds Five founder Darren Jessee with help from members of Sparklehorse, Archers of Loaf and Fountains of Wayne. An album you'll want to hear every day, with pop songs that you get closer to after each listen. The music is richly layered with melodious keyboards, crisp guitars and soft pianos. Hotel Lights play with authority and confidence, creating their own brand of timeless pop. Jessee's vocals are as distinct and endearing as the songs themselves. And his lyrics set him apart from his peers, with an honest, storytelling that repeatedly touches upon the holy trinity of great pop records: love, loss, and starting over. |
The Finest Example Is You Burnside Project return with their second album, The Finest Example is You, produced by the band and mixed by Paul Mahajan (Yeah Yeah Yeahs, TV on the Radio). From the buzz-saw keyboard introduction of the opening track, Signs of Perfection, to the scratchy, dueling guitars in And So It Goes, you can tell that the New York City trios follow-up is far more urgent in tone than the introspective, narrative approach of their last record. The Finest Example is You is truly Jankovich, Hammill and Searings shining moment. |
El Ten Eleven El Ten Eleven is the name adopted by Los Angeles based musicians Kristian Dunn and Tim Fogarty. Armed with only bass, drums and an array of foot pedals, the duo creates lush instrumental soundscapes reminiscent of the music of Tortoise, Radiohead and Sigur Ros. The people at Amoeba Records have described their music as "Odd, atmospheric Tortoise-style post rock... moody, nutritious." |
El Ten Eleven (limited 180g LP Version) El Ten Eleven is the name adopted by Los Angeles based musicians Kristian Dunn and Tim Fogarty. Armed with only bass, drums and an array of foot pedals, the duo creates lush instrumental soundscapes reminiscent of the music of Tortoise, Radiohead and Sigur Ros. The people at Amoeba Records have described their music as "Odd, atmospheric Tortoise-style post rock... moody, nutritious." Limited 180 Gram LP Version with download card included. |
Sights And Sounds Of Previously unreleased material from the king of Space Age Bachelor Pad Music. Recorded in 1975 to be used as a promotional tool for, La Margarita - a popular Mexican restaurant in Chicago where Esquivel! was in the middle of a 6 month engagement. It was recorded live in the studio without overdubs. The only thing that was added was the applause. Includes a great arrangement of "Rhapsody In Blue", "Good Morning Heartache" and "Delta Dawn." The final Esquivel recording made during the lounge era. |
Nice and Nicely Done The Spinto story started back in 1996 when Nick Krill found some songs in the attic penned on the back of Cracker Jack boxes by his grandfather, guitar player Roy Spinto. Those lyrics inspired Nick and 6 of his high school friends to form The Spinto Band penning their own songs that the Philadelphia Weekly calls "... unlikely beauties somewhere between Pavement, Yo La Tengo and The Flaming Lips". |
In Case We Die The second album from Australia's indie-pop chamber orchestra. This is what Rolling Stone says about them, "There are eight of them. And they make an orchestra's worth of sumptuous music, bently movning music (electronics, brass, xylophone, boy-angel vocals, enchanted schoolgirl chorals) that improves on the arctic mystery of Sigur Ros by adding the infectious thrust of the B-52's." |
Petra Haden Sings The Who Sell Out The latest chapter in the always provocative, often unpredictable yet never less than fascinating musical career of Ms. Haden. The impetus for the project, came from her friend, bassist mike watt who suggested that she attempt to re-imagine this classic Who album as an a capella album. He gave her an 8 track cassette tape with the original Who album recorded onto one track and the other seven empty, for her to fill with intricate vocal harmonies. Not only did Petra re-imagine all The Whos singing and instrumental parts including drums she also tackled all the interstitial mock radio commercials so integral to The Who Sell Out experience. The final result is a technical tour de force that also invites a fuller appreciation of The Whos own achievement, bringing to the fore all the original elements of chorale music, vaudevillian schmaltz and Renaissance chamber ensemble playing. |
Dead Dog's Eyeball - The Songs Of Daniel Johnston Former lead vocalist of Glass Eye records an album worth of songs by the great Texas lost boy Daniel Johnston." Music so elegant and pointed, pleasure so direct, hasn't been heard very often since the heyday of Lennon and McCartney...this is the real thing, something new." Austin Chronicle. This is one of Bar Nones finest releases. Includes "Rocket Ship" as heard on Futurama. |
The Way I Were "There are few artists that have a hidden treasure trove of unreleased songs from their early years that are of the quality of Freedy Johnston's. Now, at long last he offers them to the listening public. The 14 previously unreleased songs on The Way I Were reveal missing moments from 1988-1991, and provide a wonderful complement to his Bar/None and Elektra releases". - FILTER (Winter '04) |
Before Sleep Comes Before Sleep Comes Acoustic chill-out music for the soul - nine songs for insomniacs including new Luka originals and classic Celtic ballads, "The Water Is Wide" and "She Moved Through the Fair". Luka created this intimate album specifically for late night listening, for those last moments of wakefulness when the imagination remains fertile but the flesh is often worn out. This is Lukas third album with Bar/None. |
Keeper Of The Flame "I decided to use this project to celebrate the work of artists I love," Luka Bloom explains. "This was the decision that caused me to get fired up about the CD: the idea of taking songs that are already loved, by artists who are already loved, and presenting them in a unique musical environment. Some of this was about interpreting songs I already knew and felt comfortable with. Some of it was about challenging myself to perform songs that supposedly come from outside my area, from artists like the Cure, U2, Radiohead, and Abba. |
Fortune The Mendoza Line has made Fortune, a glorious new set of songs that find our heroes swaggering like the Stones during their "Exile..." period. Whereas their 2002 album Lost in Revelry was a document of wayward and abandoned souls searching for any direction but down, Fortune is a hopeful and exuberant picture of a bright light at the end of a long tunnel. |
Fingers Crossed The band finally let go of its precious, first born, Fingers Crossed, after nearly two years of work, shifting personnel and studios galore in 2004. Architecture in Helsinki is an eight-piece combo from Melbourne, Australia (not Finland) that makes ingenious chamber rock for the laptop age, combining guitar-bass-drums with horns, strings, male and female vocals, lots of handclaps, samples and subtle electronics. |
Use Your Voice With his new album, Use Your Voice , Mason Jennings uses his voice to question thinly veiled motives in "Fourteen Pictures." He uses his voice to emphasize the hallowed sound of a hammer swinging to the beat of a lonesome man's heart in "Empire Builder." He uses his voice to revel in the sweet satisfaction of a loved one's warm embrace in "Lemon Grove Avenue," and he uses this same voice to joyfully celebrate unconditional love in "Keepin It Real." And this voice, giving equality to all things great and small, also expresses the pain of death in the "Ballad of Paul and Sheila," the confusion of a soured love affair in "Crown," and the pains of a broken man in "Drinking As Religion." |
Century Spring Jennings' third album, Century Spring, purposefully aims for the hearts and minds of music lovers, connecting with its finely nuanced pop-rock and poignant and vivid lyrics. "I wanted Century Spring to feel very natural and honest," he says. "I think of the album as a single love story and I tried to cover the gamut of the different ways that love can make you feel." What also sets Jennings apart from others is his unique voice - an ancient sounding instrument that seems as if he's channeling some of music's most storied ghosts. |
Mosquitos The Mosquitos definitely have friends in high places. In Rolling Stone critic David Fricke's "Out There" column, he raved about the trio: "Just in time for summer's end: the endless summer and tender Braziliana of this New York trio's debut, a sweet hybrid of bossa nova hypnosis and indie-pop restraint. Juju Stulbach is a genuine gift from Ipanema, a Rio De Janeiro native, with a voice like warm night air; singer-guitarist Chris Root and keyboard player Jon Marshall Smith dust the soft hip shake of 'Rainsong' and 'So Far Away' with sprinkles of Neu! and Yo La Tengo. As the cold arrives and the nights grow long, this album will come in handy." |
Nice There's definitely more English on Nice, but language has never really been a problem for the duo and their fans. As a writer for Amplifier once put it, "Puffy AmiYumi proves that sheer fun transcends the language barrier." Just listen to "Tokyo Nights," which features Ami and Yumi quick-cutting between their native tongue and the western words they're still earnestly studying. The rapid-fire patter reflects an instrumental arrangement that morphs from Buggles-period new wave to Bee Gees-era disco, with a few seventies arena rock flourishes thrown in for good measure - all in about three minutes. |
Baby I'm Bored Baby I'm Bored is the first studio solo album from former Lemonheads frontman Evan Dando. Anyone unfamiliar with Evan's past will need no back story to appreciate this eclectic and affecting collection of songs, which ranges from bittersweet country rock to pure pop pleasure, dashed with a little indie-rock noise. |
SONG-POEM ANTHOLOGY - Do You Know The Difference Between Big Wood & Brush While The American Song-Poem Anthology may sound like a Top 40 countdown from the Twilight Zone, you can be sure that none of it resembles the over-polished product coming out of the corporate assembly line at the other end of the music industry. These song-poems come from people who could be your neighbors, friends, fellow commuters, and co-workers. Or even you. We've all got a song in our hearts. |
The Networks, The Circuits, The Streams, The Harmonies The Network, The Circuits, The Streams, The Harmonies is the Burnside Projects recording debut as a flesh-and-blood band, and it couldnt have come at a better time. Cut and pasted and recut and refucked with is how one critic put it. But theyve ditched the overarching irony, the tongue-in-cheek/deadpan-chic attitude of the electro scene, for a collection of midnight confessions from a dark corner of the dance floor. The Burnside album is almost cinematic in scope, or at least indie-cinematic, evoking the kind of skittering drum-n-bass rhythms that jacked up the tension in Darren Aronofskys Pi. |
An Illustrated History Of Puffy AmiYumi In their home country of Japan, Puffy AmiYumi fill stadium-size arenas, sell hundreds of thousands of albums, host their own television variety show, Pa-Pa-Pa-Pa-Puffy, (in which self-proclaimed über-fan, Garbages Shirley Manson, appearsed, and have their likeness captured by an extended line of collectible toys. For anyone trying to sink their teeth into Puffys sugar-coated, pop music-filled, luscious layer cake, An Illustrated History of Puffy AmiYumi is the perfect first bite. Prepare for the Puffy AmiYumi Invasion! Loaded with J-Pop hits plus bonus video Boogie Woogie No.5 |
Innocence & Despair The 19 tracks on The Langley Schools Music Project documents a 60-voice chorus of rural Canadian school children, age 9-12, recorded in 1976-1977. Technically untrained but mesmerized by melodic magic, the students sing from-the-heart renditions of tunes by the Beach Boys, Paul McCartney, David Bowie, Fleetwood Mac, The Bay City Rollers, and others. They accompany themselves with the shimmering gamelan-like chimes of Orff percussion instruments and elemental rock trimmings arranged by their "gypsy" music teacher, Hans Fenger. |
Cherry Peel Of Montreal has written what might be the best record of the year - a beautiful foray into the world of positive, loving, joyfully honest two-minute pop songs that aren't afraid to tell it like it is (or at least how it should be). Kevin Barnes has shared his first major vision with the world, and we're better for having listened - surprisingly complex. Fusing the shameless fun of Jonathan Richman with the mega-melodies of the Beach Boys by the way Weezer and the Beatles. Barnes has created his own signature style by building on the foundations of the geniuses who have come before him. - FLAGPOLE |
The Gay Parade "The Gay Parade is psychedelic pop's answer to The Canterbury Tales. Mastermind Kevin Barnes presents a series of colorful characters throughout these 16 tracks --the singer likens each song to a float passing through a happy parade...The Gay Parade bursts with over-the-top, theatrical arrangements. Barnes's multitude of guests adds horn, keyboards, toy pianos, bells, whistles and other embellishments -- there's even a 42-singer chorus. Of Montreals refreshingly honest emotions and its exuberant songs offer a much-needed escape from an angst-filled world." -Wendy Mitchell/CMJ |
Horse and Elephant Eatery This is a deep collection of material barely heard anywhere previously; bonus tracks from far flung continents as well as brand new tunage. Of Montreal are busting a move out of the Elephant Six collective and taking it to the streets of America and Japan one more time. They've never tasted so good. |
The Earth Pressed Flat Sometimes the simplest strategies yield the richest results. The Earth Pressed Flat is 10,000 Maniacs' most homegrown project since its earliest recordings seventeen years ago, yet it may be among the bands most striking and eloquent. It was assembled from material they had been developing over the last four years both before and after their 1997 Geffen release Love Among the Ruins and recorded in an unhurried fashion in and around their Jamestown, New York base. |
Clouded Staircase Starling Electric was originally formed by singer/songwriter Caleb Dillon, and has since grown into the dynamic four-piece that exists today. Described as "...startling and arch orchestral pop music of the best kind", the group is a melting pot of 60's and 70's influences - the melodic harmonies of the Beach Boys, Zombies, and The Byrds; the prog and art-rock exploration of Yes, 10cc, Genesis, and Elton John; the baroque craftsmanship of the Left Banke and Love; and the pomposity and swagger of The Who, Queen, and ELO. In their first two years playing together, they've shared bills with Robert Pollard (of Guided By Voices), The Hidden Cameras, Evan Dando, Saturday Looks Good To Me, The Sights, Canada, Chris Bathgate, Great Lakes Myth Society, The Satin Peaches, and many others. "'Clouded Staircase' is definitely a TOP TEN record for me personally..." - Jon Auer, The Posies/Big Star |
The Oily Years Includes "Yellow Sarong" probably best known from Yo La Tengo's Fakebook album. This definitive collection of Scene Is Now material, showcasing their expansive, and eclectic career appeared originally in 1995. "The Scene Is Now was a kind of postmodern jug band comprised of a loose, ever-changing aggregation of downtown New York City musicians." - AllMusic.com |
Lavalogy Richmond, VA's Hot Lava present a collection of incredibly fun, joyous, and endearing songs; contemporary indie-rockness with a retro flair, calling to mind bobby socks and beach blanket bingo. RVA Magazine describes Lavalogy, "Stirring up the ingredients of surf music, lounge and pop rock, then throwing them into some sort of lo-fi electro tornado, they've crafted one fine birthday cake you know something wonderful is about to jump out of." "This is pink tambourine utopia!" enthuses Perfect Sound Forever, waxing poetic about Hot Lava's "digital basement bling" and "under the charm killer songwriting... polaroids from teen eternity." |
Space Age Bachelor Pad Music "Esquivel is the great unsung genius of mind-curdling space age pop" -MATT GROENING, Creator of The Simpsons. The man who single handily launched the lounge movement- Esquivel is godfather of the new cocktail nation. Juan Garcia Esquivel recorded back when people wanted the hottest dynamic sounds to be coming out of their new fangled hi-fi's. Guaranteed to astound your stereo. |
Can You Fly On this remarkable second album, Freedy's singing and songwriting has grown exponentially. Album of the year in Musician, Spin, Village Voice, People, Playboy. Can You Fly is one of Bar None's proudest moments. |
Defektor Greg Camp, guitarist and Grammy nominated songwriter has stepped out of the SmashMouth fold after 10 years. Having penned most of the pop outfits multiplatinum hits, Camp has decided to take this step in an effort to further explore the hidden corners of his overactive pop muse. Defektor boasts songs about sticky-fingered hotel maids, unpredictable ex-lovers, the end of the world and strung-out super models and plays like a guided tour through Camps diverse musical imagination. The album was written, recorded and mixed in Camps new recording studio Seavolt Sound, where left to his own devices, he ditched all ballast and chased countless ideas down rabbit holes. He emerged from the studio with a healthy handful of shiny new songs, spanning influences from 60s pop, surf, garage, spaghetti western soundtracks, rock n roll, new wave, and funk. |
My Friend the Sun b/w Broken Record (7 limited edition 7" single featuring two album tracks from "hERE aND nOW". "My Friend the Sun" b/w "Broken Record". Locked-groove on "Broken Record"! |
Fakebook A collection of mostly acoustic songs; melodies so fine and warm they wrap you right up and send you home to mom. Called one the world's best bands by Spin, Yo La Tengo takes an acoustic journey through rock history. Sixteen songs - five by YLT and eleven covers of a distinctly non-Freebird variety including Daniel Johnston's "Speeding Motorcycle", The Kinks' "Oklahoma, U.S.A.", and Cat Stevens' "Here Comes My Baby". |

He may have been 69 years old and in failing health, but the death of North Korean leader Kim Jong-il after 17 years in power still came as a shock to his people.
"There are some really hard ideological realities inside which the successor is going to be forced to operate, regardless of who that successor might eventually turn out to be ... This military first path that Kim Jong-il shunted the country onto in 1992 is one that the successor is going to have to proceed along as well."
- Brian Myers, the director of Dongseo University's Department of International Studies
In a country where Kim was revered as much as he was vilified by the outside world, the reins of power are already being handed to his son.
The state media urged North Koreans to unite behind Kim Jong-un, calling him the great successor. But little is known about the man, and there are questions over whether he is ready to lead.
It was only last year that Kim Jong-un came out of obscurity and a process of grooming him for succession began. His father made him a general and he took up senior positions in the government and the Korean Workers' Party.He may be the chosen one to keep his family dynasty in place and the generals in charge of this enigmatic country's vast military arsenal may be backing him, but analysts are questioning whether he is really ready to become supreme leader and few doubt there will be some kind of power struggle.
Jong-un will lead his father's funeral procession next week, symbolising the dynasty's move into a new generation of leadership, but how smooth will the transition of power be in the world's most reclusive country?
Inside Story, with presenter Hazem Sika, discusses with guests: Brian Myers, the director of the Department of International Studies at Dongseo University in South Korea; Joseph Cheng, a professor of International Politics at City University, Hong Kong; and Sukhee Han, an associate dean of the Graduate School of International Studies at Yonsei University in South Korea.
"Leadership succession arrangements have been going on for more than two years. We do not pick up any signs of an organised opposition. There is, of course, considerable fear on the part of the elites, including the military, the party cadres and the officials. They are certainly afraid that any major change, any opening up could destabilise the regime. At the moment, the safest step, of course, is to hold onto the legacy of Kim Jong-il, follow his policies, and demonstrate loyalty to the young Kim."
Joseph Cheng, a professor of International Politics at City University, Hong Kong

How's it Going?
I can't even sum it up in a word. It's more of a noise. Eh.
I'm not bad. I have all the basics down. Straight, turn, stop, obey laws, follow traffic, parking sometimes. The new hurdle? Changing lanes. I don't know if it's because I'm so short, but I can not see a damn thing. Yes, I look in the mirrors, I see....stuff. But I don't trust myself 100% to get myself into the other lane safely. I turn around to do a quick look...I don't see anything.
Here's where the problem comes in. I ask Danny, "can I get over?" He refuses to answer. Then, he gets mad that I'm not confident in my driving. Well, how am I supposed to work on the confidence issue if the person trying to help me isn't that big of a confidence booster?
So, this is why driving is only an "eh." I'd rather not constantly bicker with my husband, so driving constantly gets pushed on the back burner.
You know the saying "those who can't do, teach?" Well, I can't drive, but I can give damn good directions and know the laws. And I think the same goes for Danny...he can't teach, so he drives.
Sadly, this is only going to get us so far. I want my license around the same time that we move. I want a job. So, I need to buckle down....cuz moving day is going to be sooner than later!

When I got my van here, there was a larger mirror over the rearview. It just clips on. It's big enough that you can see your blind spot, so I've become a pro at weaving through traffic! I'd been driving for 12 years and was not good at using my mirrors, but that has changed! I'm taking this dang thing with me when we move.
ReplyDeleteHubby taught me to ride a motorcycle, and I really thought I would be pissed at him forever and ever after that. I had a hard time "feeling" the clutch, and his solution was to yell directions at me. He just didn't get that I understood HOW to do it, I was just not very good at actually doing it.
Put him in the backseat so you can pretend he's not there, and start out on low traffic roads. I remember learning to change lanes, and I think it's a challenge for most people (those damn blind spots are named that way for a reason). Don't worry- you'll do fine! :)That would be so frustrating! I would just tell him that you really need his help with some of those skills until you are more comfortable with your driving. Eventually, you will be ready to do it on your own and he can relax a bit. I am still really proud of you for doing this - it's not easy at all!
ReplyDeleteI've been trying to get my license too and it's been very difficult--no one who teaches me really works with me well, and I'm very little too so I need a little assistance at least until I feel better about my perception...but I'm sure that you and I will both get the hang of it sooner or later! Good luck!

Soooo Cute!
Authentic Looking, Comfortable, Cute, Unique
Best Uses:
Costume Party, Just For Fun, Trick Or Treating, Wear To School/Work
Describe Yourself:
Adventurous, Trendy
Was this a gift?:
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
This costume is SOOO cute! It was great for my 9 year old. It is modest but sassy. The costume is appropriate for school events and trick or treating. She liked the jacket to wear just because. It makes a fun hoodie. My daughter is 4'4" and 75lbs. She could fit in the medium but the shoulders of the jacket were a little tight. She got the large but the sleeves were a bit long. But this is because my daughter is petite. She can still grow into it. The elastic of the leg warmers are way too loose. They were even too big for my calves. I will need to sew them to make them tighter. The costume is okay without them as well.

Pioneering technology in "The Hobbit:An Unexpected Journey" has received mixed reviews. CNN asks the stars of the film what they think of the new look Middle Earth.
