Menomena – Heavy is as Heavy Does [mp3] (from Moms , out now) Justin Harris and Danny Seim soldier on as a duo (minus founding member Brent Knopf who left to pursue his solo project Ramona Falls). The new album is more cohesive than previous collections, with their multi-layered, intricate approach to experimental indie rock focusing more on the subject of family relationships (but still brandishing their bare-knuckled take on friendship and sexuality).

Today's music beat all other music in a fight to the death. Enjoy. : Action Bronson - It's Me : This is a song that features what seems to be a Little Mermaid sample thrown over lyrics that Disney would never ever approve of. I dig it. Way to keep things fresh, AB . This Party Supplies-produced number appears to be a random one, so grab it while you can. : Harlan - 1984 : Here's a nice 80s-enthused track. If you can manage to make it through the chorus with wanting to create some [...]

Just when I start to forget that A.C. Newman is releasing a new album this year he pops up with another track to grab my attention once again. The first time it was "I'm Not Talking" , and just like that track "Encyclopedia Of Classic Takedowns" also features the unmistakable voice of Neko Case. So far this album seems to be featuring a throwback 702s sound that Newman is pulling off brilliantly. A.C. Newman - "Encyclopedia Of Classic Takedowns" Shut Down The Streets is out October [...]
Penguin The 2012 Polaris Music Prize gets awarded tonight, so in honour of the occasion, here's a bunch of maple-flavoured content led off by a Canadian icon who hasn't lived in Canada in some 40-plus years. Yeah! If you have some time to kill and an interest in who Neil Young is circa 2012, you could do worse than to spend it with this feature piece at The New York Times . It covers his current relationship with alcohol and drugs - there is none - as [...]

Ahora, el músico y su disquera han estrenado otra de las melodías provenientes de este álbum, se trata de "Encyclopedia Of Classic Takedowns" , canción que además tiene un extra muy especial, pues en ella colabora su [...]
You know, I feel like I beat the world over the head today with some rock n' roll, so I figure we could close out the day with a little touch of perfect pop from our beloved AC Newman .

This track will be featured on Newman's upcoming record for [...]
