After a little break from our Food-Week due to current happenings, we finally get back to this wunderful topic now. Being a vegetarian myself, I feel the need to write something about this subject ! I'm normally noone who is obstrusively convincing people with my belief because I already got tired of the discussion and the bullheaded opinions of carnivores , but sometimes I think, that people should overthink their behaviour a bit more. Especially in the [...]
Chris Walla, between his membership in Death Cab for Cutie and production work with the Decemberists, Nada Surf, Tegan and Sara, et al., has been a contributing member to the Pacific Northwestern music scene for upwards of a decade. But unless you count a lo-fi cassette made in 1999 under the name Martin Youth Auxiliary, this is the first time he's paused to compile a collection of his own work. I've been surprised by the mixed nature of the reactions to Field Manual so far, in that some of the harshest criticism seems to be [...]
Seit mindestens zwei Jahren sehnlichst herbeigewünscht: das Soloalbum von Chris Walla, seineszeichen wechselweise Gitarrist, Pianist, Bassist, Backgroundsänger und, nicht zu vergessen, Produzent, der Indie-Pop-Helden Death Cab For Cutie . Nachdem Chris Walla mich auf seiner Homepage nun monatelang hingehalten hat und lieber Tegan & Sara Alben produziert hat, als sich endlich mal um sein eigenes Werk zu kümmern, ist die Spannung nun natürlich dreifach hoch. Aber es scheint, als habe sich das Warten gelohnt. Obwohl die Festplatte mit seinem Album, welches in Kanada produziert [...]
Nachdem Chris Walla's Festplatte mit den unveröffentlichten Tracks des neuen Albums zunächst vom übereifrigen amerikanischen Zoll im Rahmen der Terrorabwehr wochenlang konfisziert wurde, ist nun alles wieder geregelt und das neue Album namens Field Manual darf nun im Januar erscheinen. Das der sanfte Death Cab for Cutie Musikästhet als so gefährlich eingestuft wurde ist eher weniger wahrscheinlich. Viel wahrscheinlicher hat sich der Zollbeamte in die Tracks verliebt und sie einfach nicht wieder hergeben wollen oder sie haben die Songs nicht verstanden. Einen Track gibt es aktuel auf der Webseite der US Zollbehörde, äh quatsch, natürlich bei Barsuk Records jedenfalls [...]

Not to brag or anything, but yours truly is now in Technorati's top 1 million blogs at a stunning 944,869! Boo yah! Pretty soon I'll be breaking the 800,000 mark and the top 10 a little after that. All sarcasm aside, I still find myself with no internet, but the blogging must go on. Here's some juicy links from around the music filled interweb. The Torture Garden's best songs of 2006 . Which led me to find the first album I know I'll love, but missed in '06 somehow [...]
Chris Walla has made a name for himself as a producer, as well as guitarist, for 'indie to major label' band, Death Cab For Cutie. Since around 1998, Walla has also been involved in a solo project he calls Martin Youth Auxiliary. But in the past seven years only one recording has been released, 1999's self-titled cassette on Elsinor Records. On his website is word that he will finally release, through Barsuk, a new solo work in March 2007. Walla has a number of mp3s offered on his website. From covers' [...]
