Title Tracks' catchy debut album, a creation of former Q and Not U member John Davis leaked at the end quarter of 2009. Rumors were that it was leaked by the press, but that turned out not to be the case. It's a shame, too, because this is a very solid pop debut on the Dischord label-an indie label that can't afford the loss in sales that are inevitable in this type of situation. So I'm giving the album a good write up here, to help them recover. On It Was Easy , you'll find crisp new songs, guest [...]

Aunque en el año 2000 Badly Drawn Boy se destacó como un excelente compositor gracias a su maravilloso trabajo en The Hour of the Bewilderedbeast , no sería sino hasta el 2002 cuando se consolidaría su carrera musical, gracias a la banda sonora que escribió para la cinta About a Boy , protagonizada por Hugh Grant. Ahora el compositor está de regreso con otro soundtrack , esta vez para una película de televisión llamada The Fattest Man in Britain , inspirada en el caso real de un hombre inglés que [...]
It's a pretty low-key week as far as releases are concerned. There are a ton of Jackson 5/Michael Jackson reissues, a couple of discs from American Idol contestants, as well as a ton of imports. But really, there's nothing particularly intriguing except for the Badly Drawn Boy release. I guess the music industry is allowed [...]
Badly Drawn Boy has said fans should prepare for a surprise for his next album, which comes out ten years after his Mercury-winning debut 'The Hour of Bewilderbeast.' Talking to BBC 6 Music , Damon Gough said he felt he had returned to the more adventurous spirit of his 2000 debut. He said, "I really honestly feel like I'm back to the beginning. Whatever's been done in the past is done, whatever I've achieved or not achieved." He added, "Because I'm always really frustrated that I don't put across what I'm capable [...]
E' difficile dire il contrario: Damon Gough, in arte Badly Drawn Boy , ha avuto una carriera tutta sbagliata. E' partito 10 anni fa col botto di The hour of the bewilderbeast , un disco trascinato da tre singoli clamorosi che ha contribuito a ridefinire il concetto di pop inglese, e che ha imposto l'iconico nerd schivo, burbero e ipersensibile con barba e cappello come uno dei nuovi messia della musica d'autore britannica. Promessa mantenuta dalla successiva colonna sonora di About a Boy , che oltre a essere un divertissment un po' meno [...]

Screen Jams is our recurring look at the most buzzworthy new music featured in movies, TV shows, and video games—pretty much any form of entertainment you can enjoy with your eyes. British singer and songwriter Damon Gough – aka Badly Drawn Boy – is no stranger to soundtracks. He composed the score and songs for 2002's About a Boy , and he's back after a three-year break (his last studio release was 2006's Born in the U.K. ) with the soundtrack for Is There Nothing We Could Do?, music [...]
The year 2009 marked the final chapter in what had been music's most fascinating decades. But we don't have to tell you that - the examples speak for themselves. A combination of Internet protocol, aka BitTorrents, and a band named Radiohead led to the destruction of the music industry as we knew it. A rapper from Chicago managed to become both the most talented and the most despised individual on Earth, while a Detroit rocker proved this generation could have a sure-fire Rock 'n' Roll Hall-of-Famer. The Grammys became a joke and something called a "blog" became required reading. Oh, [...]
Toronto - It's the end of a decade. OMFG. Did that term even exist before 2000? I don't think so. The past decade has seen many changes (as any decade would have). I'll let other web sites or writers write about all that we have become and whether or not we are better for it. For now, let's just focus on the music. Here is an A to Z guide to the 00's. A Arcade Fire - Only 2 records (and ep) released in the decade, yet the Arcade [...]

I had a great time strolling through NorthPark Mall today. One highlight, besides hanging with my friend Cassie, was hearing the Badly Drawn Boy tune "Donna & Blitzen" for the first time. It's a fun indie holiday tune. Listen/download the track below. - Joel Badly Drawn Boy - "Donna & Blitzen"
Part Six of my countdown of the top 110 albums of the decade. You can find 110-101 here , 100-91 here , 90-81 here , 80-71 here , and 70-61 here . But for now, here's 60-51... 60. The Libertines - Up the Bracket (2002) Up the Bracket was the record that launched Pete Doherty on the world, and especially on the Great British tabloids. It's a deep down and [...]
