I have to admit I didn't really quite like "Miami Ice" by chitown-proggers Icy Demons the first time I heard it. It just didn't grab me, but then the other day, it comes on the ol' ipod and I had take it out of my pocket to find out who it was. Now if you do not like this track right away, I implore you to download it and pop it into you mp3 library, because one day it may just blow your mind.

by kevin For Day 3 of CMJ I took my own path, exploring the anti-CMJ faction of this week-long fest. Like all good festivals, sometimes the best shows can be found on the fringes. And no one knows how to master the fringe like Todd P . You should be familiar with Mr. P by now if you live in Brooklyn. He throws every great underground, warehouse, rooftop, outdoor indie-underground show you can think of. At 6 o'clock last night, I left my [...]
As more and more ads appear on HRO i wonder how much he's making now. Couple ads from AA, one from Pedestrian and little ads for more ads to be added. HRO went off on this alt-culture tangent for so long i started to forget it was a music blog, i wonder what Carles' REAL job is, or can he say (since he's making money from it) that he's a blogger and that IS his job? It's true what he says, HRO is a blog worth blogging about. I also have a hunch, Bonds is going [...]
Mount Eerie is at it again folks. The band known for their dark, hard rocking ways have once again put it together on what is quickly becoming a fave around these parts. It rocks hard, it has it's weird lyrics, and it never stops luring me further in. I was a little put off by the track "Don't Smoke", but my personal afflictions have no real place in a pre-review. I've only gone through the album
Drop D is a segment written by QuarterlifeParty friend and freelance writer Ryan Boddy, focusing on bands and music often overlooked in the music blog world. Bands with multiple drummers often acquire labels they don't want. Words like "drum circle" easily leap to mind when percussion takes the forefront as it does in Brooklyn's three drummers and a knob twiddler outfit, Aa (pronounced Big A Little A) . Drum circles usually imply a studied lack of rehearsal that results in brief moments of rhythmic coalescence before falling [...]
So I have not posted any music lately so here are some bands to listen to. So I know everybody has already said how great Vampire Weekend is and that I've mentioned them before, but everybody really should listen to their debut album. Besides that I suggest checking out The Cribs and the songs below. Also 10 longest bridges in the world. The XYZ Affair - Little Fool Aa - Thirteen The Duke Spirit - Cuts Across the Land [...]
Because... Hype Machine has released their redesigned site for private viewing. No screenshots allowed, but my early thoughts are a bit like meeting your nephew for the first time in 20 years: he's a heart-stopping ladykiller with all the glitzy shenanigans that will likely make the family go ga-ga—yet you can't help but reminisce the days when he was the one going "Ga ga". They sure grow up fast. Aa - New Machine (from GAaME ) Brooklyn snare smackers time travel to 735,309 BC, just as Polyphonic Spree's ancestors [...]
Am I the only person who doesn't love the new self-titled album from Liars? I loved their previous three albums to death, but Liars just leaves me cold. I want to like it. I can see what they're trying to accomplish. But I just don't find it a compelling listen. I'll give it more listens, of course. But right now, my favorite Liars album of 2007 was done by Aa. Many years ago, I had a friend who was a die-hard Weezer fan. Then The Green Album came out. He hated it. So he [...]

Help yourself to these free samplings, but then please also make a pledge to ensure another year of [...]
While many believe that the Garden State soundtrack was the "indie" soundtrack of the past few years, the truly hip have apparently realized by now that the Marie Antoinette soundtrack is what the cool kids are actually listening to. On that soundtrack, some of the most haunting and beautiful songs came from Dustin O'Halloran , a composer/pianist who splits his time between Los Angeles, his hometown, and Italy, his love. He composed a number of songs specifically for the movie, including Opus 23 and 36 which are below, and also released [...]
