Sweet Fancy Moses! This song here has to be simply the most excruciatingly, ear-damagingly, brain-smokingly, anal-bleedingly horrible song ever recorded. And it's stuck in my head today.

I apologize for dropping this one on you with such short notice. But I will make amends by presenting a free show featuring Chicano Batman, an Ariel Pink DJ set, Open Mike Eagle, and Wild Pack of Canaries, who may or may not be a giant cage of birds that I will unleash at the stroke of midnight to the delight and horror of Harvard & Stone patrons. To recap, festivities start at 9 p.m. Harvard & Stone is at 5221 Hollywood Blvd. I will be there in my blue satin 70s tuxedo. It costs $0 and zero [...]

Wampire: Curiosity - Rocky Tinder and Eric Phipps make up the freaky union that is Wampire . The Portland duo are following up their 7” debut with a therapeutically disturbing LP, Curiosity , via Polyvinyl. In an era where the bulk of new music released is so much aural mayonnaise spread on the thin Wonderbread of ever staler drum-machine beats, it's truly refreshing to hear a band that can actually write an intriguing song (despite the fact that Polyvinyl claims Wampire threw the album together more or less on the spot in the studio). [...]

La nueva campaña la protagonizan  Kim Gordon ,  Courtney Love ,  Ariel Pink y, por supuesto,  Marilyn [...]

Sean Bowie is Teams, an oddball electronic project with an adoration for '80s synth-pop twinkling. On the jumpily nostalgic "Hatsumi", Bowie recalls the post-punk revivalism work of Twin Shadow; the comparison is evident through Bowie's deeply aching vocals, robotic snare drums, and swarms of electric guitar bursts. Complemented by a gentle synth glistening, it forms a hypnotic attack that sports both heavily atmospheric synth-pop and enjoyably cheesy guitar solos. Bowie is a sort of enigmatic oddball, as shown in interviews like this , and his personality fits perfectly with his mysteriously invigorating music - much like an Ariel Pink or John [...]

Every album has its own perfect listening experience. Whether it’s on the road with four of your best friends, or in the darkened corners of your bed on a Sunday morning, that moment will find you with every album when given the chance. Devendra Banhart has made a career of albums that seem underwhelming at first, before revealing their treasures when they’re good and ready. The side effect of this is that his albums can seem meandering or, frankly, aimless. The Venezuelan-American singer can get caught up in his own mind and talent, making [...]
