We can't wait for you to hear this Dinowalrus cover of Psychic TV 's tribute to Brian Jones (of Rolling Stones fame). Given Dinowalrus ' recent move away from krauty experimentalism and toward things baggy, could a Dinowalrus remix of Tekno Acid Beat be on the horizon? Listen.

C Spencer Yeh, better know to some as Burning Star Core, released easily my favorite record of 2008 with Challenger. The album sounds pretty much exactly how the cover art looks. It's a fucking trip across the cosmos. There's an entire aura surrounding it that is colored like the smokey goo pluming from some shattered, planetoid-orb. This album could be the all-time greatest score to an amazing science fiction movie. It's just out there and wonderful. This is pretty distant from the more avant-g...
On Sunday I made the long trek from Brooklyn up to Morningside Heights. I knew it was a bad omen when I realized that the 2/3 wasn't running between Manhattan and Brooklyn only once I got to the station. After taking the 4 to the 1 to the 2, I finally made it up to Columbia. I was initially excited for this event, but the rain moved it into the Barnard Gymnasium, which definitely wasn't the most inspiring place to see bands. It also didn't help that being surrounded by college kids made me hyper-reflective about my I-can't-believe-it-was-already -two-years-ago college existence. [...]

Awwwww JESUS CHRIST. There I go again, letting my mind wander like a lost little Swedish boy. I really do get carried away. It's just that I like this album ever so much.

I have a confession to make. For years I would loudly proclaim my opinion that Lexington was vastly inferior to Louisville and that nobody in their right mind would ever want to live there. Now, my love for Louisville hasn't waned a bit (I still think it's the greatest town in America), but Lexington is quickly making a case for being one of the most exciting towns in the Midwest. With this year's Boomslang Fest courtesy of WRFL , they are [...]
Will the festival season ever end? Part of me hopes so, but another part hungers for more. And The Wire sponsored Adventures in Modern Music Festival at Chicago's Empty Bottle this past week pushed that hunger to a limit. I'm now pretty sure that another festival would kill me. Now, that's certainly not to say that I didn't enjoy my four days at one of Chicago's best venues; it didn't help that I was sick, and couldn't make it out of the house for one of the five shows. But, the array of noise, improv, under-the-radar, generally weird [...]

Listen: Carter Thornton
As so many of his confederates in the avant-garde, Carter Thornton puts in work at a handful of projects, each seemingly composed of a lineup of names picked out of a hat. In addition to playing guitar and manipulating electronics, Thornton builds instruments, makes field recordings and organizes sounds. But, as mentioned at the outset, it's almost impossible to fully appreciate any experimental musician without analyzing the musician's interactions with others in the scene. Last year's debut album from Gnaw ( This Face ) features Thornton alongside a slew of characters from better known [...]

I namedropped Burning Star Core 's A Curse on the Coast on the Yellow Swans post . Today seems right to post it, 'cause it really feels like a curse on the coast. Off Blood Lightning 2007 on No Fun .

YANP's Boomslang Festival preview guide
I normally don't normally do big preview guides for festivals or concerts, but I feel like this time is pretty special. Boomslang is a three-day festival taking place this weekend in Lexington, KY that ranges over several venues all across town. The logistics of the festival are deceptively easy, so I figured I'd get my [...]

Roundup
I haven't been updating in the past few weeks due to what we call "breakdown season" here in university land. However, I certainly do not intend to abandon this blog, and recently several interesting things have occurred that I'd like to write about. 1. Actor Out of Work - St. Vincent The new St. Vincent album, Actor , leaked. I've been a big fan of Ms. Annie Clark since I encountered her debut album a few years ago. This time around she's as seductive as ever. Continuing to juxtapose strings, flutes, and [...]

Best of 2008
I'm sorry I haven't been updating at all recently, it's been a busy time filled with long delays in airports, old friends, rampant consumerism, and other non-music related things. I plan to step things back up in January, I promise! In fact, I'll be posting tomorrow with my favourite concerts, but for now here is the list of records I couldn't put down in 2008! Why? - Alopecia A beautiful fusion of indie hip hop and indie rock. Yoni Wolf's depression is gorgeous. Perfectly Devastating. [...]
The Top 100 Albums Of 2008
Hi everybody. I'm glad you could all make it. Welcome to the annual "Best Albums Of..." post, which is usually the time I put effort into composing a blog entry. In 2005 I wrote small blurbs about the top twenty-five albums of the year. In 2006 I wrote three-word reviews for the 50 best records of the year. Last year I went so far as to craft a complete sentence for my favorite 100 albums of 2007. This year...I don't know, I haven't started the list yet. I think I'm just going to write blurbs about the albums for which [...]
