Já deu pra saber o que vem por aí. E é coisa boa: o Pains Of Being Pure At Heart já havia divulgado as faixas Belong e Heart In The Heartbreak , mostrando que o segundo disco, Belong , não frustrará quem ficou apaixonado pelo primeiro, The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart , de 2009. Mesmo com a produção do mega-ultra-super produtor Flood (de U2 e Smashing Pumpkins ), já deu pra perceber que o pop não fará estragos no [...]
This was the week of the Strokes and of the Gaga. Impressed by the former, slightly less so by the latter, it's also been a great week for live music here in Barcelona. Japanther on Thursday night, Me and the Bees exactly one week later, and Aias on Saturday! (see videos from ALL gigs on my youtube page and photos on LHNA's Facebook page ) Anyway, we've got some truly great stuff for you this week... I'll have to be brief as I'm working on a huge job for tomorrow (bloggers with time, [...]
[RSS Readers: See post to listen to audio] This Brooklyn duo is at it again, bringing Dub and background R+B vocals together into one blissful cruise. One thing I noticed when I listen to Sepalcure is that it makes me so happy especially Your Love , every wash of soft noise feels like a breeze hitting you while you fish off the coast of Greece with the sun blaring down on you. This Chad Valley song will be my theme song for the summer, soo much swagger in the bass line [...]
As y'all may know, the Pains of Being Pure at Heart are dropping a new album this March via Slumberland . I posted the first single from it a little while back , and now we're revisiting it for an audio track review. Review: The Pains of Being Pure at Heart- Belong Stream: The Pains of Being Pure at Heart- Belong (article link) -
A propulsive beat, blankets of sound and a bass/synth melody to die for; and that's just the first 30 seconds of Belong 's "Perfect Life". The most surprising, and certainly welcoming, facet of this soaring pop nugget are the duo's addition of vocals. It suits the song really well and shows the band steering away from the glacial ambient darkness of October Language into a simpler and more direct pop structure. But the layers and emotions are all still here -- two [...]
When you think of New Orleans and music your probably not thinking Shoegaze, but the N/O duo Belong are looking to change that. Take a listen to the track Perfect Life off of their upcoming album Common Era scheduled release date 3/21. Belong; Perfect Life
The New Orleans ambient shoegaze duo Belong will return with a new album this spring. Common Era LP is out March 22nd on Kranky . Download their excellent new song 'Perfect Life' below and stream some old gems on their Soundcloud page . Perfect Life Belong here .
If this band doesn't ring any bells, we wouldn't blame you. In 2006, the New Orleans-based Belong released a great drone album called October Language, and not that many people outside that specific music community really noticed. What followed seemed like a period of complete inactivity, even though it resulted in a couple EPs and [...]
Ive been a big fan of New Orleans drone duo Turk Dietrich and Michael Jones, they made some of my favorite drones, very dense sounds, almost like being sucked into a Mark Rothko painting. Today was complete caught by surprise by the new single that Kranky as posted on their soundcloud, they sound like a Minimal Wave/Shoegaze band, amazing stuff, awesome surprise and a brilliant change of shit. "Perfect Life" is taken from the album "Common Era" available on the 21 of March on Kranky ... expectations are so hight now. When you think [...]
Belong, the experimental atmospheric duo of Turk Dietrich and Michael Jones have been quiet since dropping their quintessential ghostly debut October Language. Besides a few limited pressed EP's along the way, Belong have been working on their follow up to OL, Common Era and now we finally have a sneak peek at the album with their [...]

Photo: Pavla Kopecna The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart flew onto everyone's radar back in 2009 when they released their self-titled debut album, an album that made it onto many best of the year lists (including my own). With that first album, the band made it clear where their influences came from. They seemed to take cue from bands like The Pastels, Velocity Girl and Black Tambourine to create a fun Indie-Pop and Twee sound that was entirely unique. The band is set to release their second album, "Belong", March 29th on Slumberland and the [...]
TPOBPAH (its too long to type out) continue the anticipation for their second album by offering up its title track "Belong" Read More >>
INCOMING : The Pains of Being Pure At Heart - Belong Amazing artwork above, title track below: The Pains of Being Pure At Heart "Belong" by Slumberland Records
The Pains of Being Pure at Heart have come out with their 2nd single off their upcoming record, "Belong". After delivering such a successful debut, the anticipation is high with this new record. From the three new songs I have heard already, this sounds light years beyond what they have done previously. This might be the weakest of the three, but still very listenable. Belong , comes out on March 29th on Slumberland. The Pains of Being Pure At Heart "Belong" by Slumberland [...]
Check out "Belong" the second single from the new album from Pains of Being Pure At Heart. This will be released on 73 via Slumberland on March 15th with the b-side "I Wanna Go All The Way".
O The Pains of Being Pure At Heart deixou uma ótima primeira impressão com seu álbum homônimo de estreia. Tão boa que, banda pequena que é, conseguiu um nome de peso para produzir seu segundo esforço: Flood , o produtor que criou sons para Smashing Pumpkins , My Bloody Valentine e U2 , chega para amplificar as influências noventistas do som difuso e agradável da banda, e o resultado da parceria é o álbum Belong . Em entrevista à Pitchfork , a banda declarou seu amor à séries [...]
The Pains of Being Pure at Heart have certainly shown an ability to rock, but it's been with all the smile and wink of pure indie-pop. The sunny harmonies of "Young Adult Friction" were unforgettable, and the song jammed the way indie-kids do - slick and sweet, with angst and earnestness. So when things go [...]
I'm trying something new with these My Listening Hours posts in 2011: rather than a week of posts every three months—far too daunting to compose anymore—I'll trot out a much more abbreviated monthly post. Ideally I'll have written at length about most of these records already. At the three month mark I may still do a quarterly report of some sort... who knows. I've ordered these by when I acquired them. This "month" actually stretches back to about mid-December—everything I've acquired since doing my year-end wrap-up. Without further ado...
