casper & the cookies are an interesting band. ive never seen em live, but from friends accts they're pretty awesome - they're actually playing the hi ho lounge here new orleans on wed, 3.16. anyway, ive listened to most of their releases, and while they may not always be my thing, they are definitely fun. anyway, they got a free record out thats filled with songs that were featured on comps, 73's, tour only cds, etc. not all of its awesome, but again, if you're into very quirky pop, you will definitely dig this. grab it via their site [...]

![Various Artists: Wish I'd Kept A Scrapbook (A Tribute to Tullycraft) [Album Review]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2671737_lg.jpg)
When I saw there was a new compilation devoted to hailing one of the greatest northwest bands of all time (yes, Tullycraft ), I got pretty excited. When I saw that the tracklist included bands from famed labels like Tullycraft's very own Magic Marker Records, as well as HHBTM, Matinee, and even recent favorite weePOP, my excitement blew through the roof. Look down the track list (it's at the end of this review... I'll forgive you for pausing to check it out) and you'll see some of the greatest indie pop and modern [...]

the house was deathly quiet the other night and i actually got to listen to some stuff, alone, in peace. not new stuff mind you cause that would make too much sense, but i started listening to bee thousand and was trying to remember what my thoughts/feelings were, all the way back when, during my first listen to it. sadly, its almost impossible to re-feel something, as hard as you may try. then i started wishing/hoping/dreaming that i could go back and experience a whole bunch of first listens again. then came up with the list below of records that [...]

Athens, Georgia is net als Portland, Oregon en Austin, Texas een heerlijke plaats voor de muziekliefhebber. Athens heeft een interessante muziekgeschiedenis (ik noem alleen maar REM), er zijn een paar aardige CD-zaken en de stad heeft een levendige muziekscene. Ik ben in Athens, Georgia tijdens het jaarlijkse Athfest en in drie dagen staan hier zo'n 170 vaak locale acts geprogrammeerd. Dat gaat van hip-hop tot bluegrass en van singer-songwriters tot psychedische rock. Er zit flink wat rotzooi tussen het aanbod. Zo lees ik in het programmablad een omschrijvinh als 'Local threesome delivers fun-spirited garage rock with sass and [...]

People around the world are mourning the passing of a legend and celebrating his life, career, and unmatched artistic legacy. We here at EAR FARM are spinning his four essential albums all weekend ( Off the Wall , Thriller , Bad , and Dangerous ), debating how best to spell "ma ma say, ma ma sah, ma ma mah coo sa," and one glove dancing until we can't one glove dance no more. If you're looking for [...]
