Recently, I've spent a lot of time picking up all of the albums released in '08 that I hadn't yet had the chance to check out. Amongst them was Ex- Simian / current Black Ghost vocalist Simon Lord's self-titled solo effort under the alias of Lord Skywave , released through This Is Music back in June. The name Lord Skywave is taken from one of the UK's earliest synthesisers. The Lord Skywave was designed [...]

Been filling my earholes with stuff I picked up recently from mp3 blogs around the Web. Here's a bit, in no particular order (except I started with the longest song title [& running time 10:41] first): from Every Red Heart Shines Toward the Red Sun by Red Sparowes - Millions Starved & Became Skinnier & Skinnier While Our Leaders Became Fatter & Fatter from [...]

At the beginning of the year, I was all balls to the wall excited for Made In The Dark , the latest album from Hot Chip. And then I kind of forgot about it as quickly as it came. And then, the other week Alexis Taylor of the above mentioned band surprised the world with a solo album. And then I heard it. And then I was assuaged of all fears and my universe was back to [...]

Alexis Taylor of Hot Chip fame just released his latest solo album, Rubbed Out, and luckily, Slutty Fringe posted this excellent cover of Paul McCartney's "Coming Up," which is included on the album. Rubbed Out contains 15 tracks and was recorded at home by Taylor himself, but don't expect the album to sound anything like Hot Chip aside from the vocals. As you can tell from "Coming Up," Rubbed Out is quite a bit more laid back and melodic than Hot Chip's recent material and not nearly as dance-heavy and upbeat, a welcome change of pace from the man with [...]

Flying quite low under the radar, the debut solo album from Hot Chip 's Alexis Taylor just dropped onto my desk this morning courtesy of a label who I've somehow managed to pass by up till now Treader (though having flicked through their site I think I can see a long, fruitful and potentially expensive relationship about to be formed with it's beautifully foil embossed back catalogue). Having finally got over my dissapointment at the most recent rather lacklustre HC double pack , I was hoping for my slavish fanboy nature would this time [...]

Hot Chip frontman Alexis Taylor just released a solo record called Rubbed Out via the Treader label. I have a feeling that the name comes from the fact that these fifteen songs were created on-the-fly, in places like planes, hotel rooms, etc. It isn't the type of stuff you would expect to hear from one of the Hot Chip gang. There's no beats, nor electro-whatever going on, it's just Taylor doing simplistic songs backed by minimal guitar and keyboard. Memorable moments include the garage pop-esque "Baby," a mellow cover of [...]
