When you compile a list like this, you start to tremble at how much you're really going to absorb in the ensuing months. This doesn't even cover the misses and surprises. If you're a casual listener, you might get through an album a day. Okay, maybe two. If you're a fanatic, you're spinning discographies left and right. Still, after 365 days, either person is buzzing. One's just a little louder with the phonetics. As I wrote back in December, in a year, you'll have your next roundup of favorite albums. You'll have a new favorite song. You might [...]

Toronto - A surprisingly small crowd took up shop at Lee's Palace on Saturday night to see the Cibo Matto , a genre bending hip hop meets indie rock meets dream pop band from New York best known for their records Viva! La Woman and Stereotype A . It had been many years since the Japanese via New York duo last took the stage in Toronto and from what my friends can recall, that show (a bill shared with Lucious Jackson) was one for the ages. You would have thought that the memories of that show [...]
Photos by G. Miho Hatori of Cibo Matto Cibo Matto , the Japanese acid jazz/trip hop band broke up in 2001. They've recently reunited and celebrated getting back together with a sold-out show at New York's Bowery Ballroom on July 18, 2011. The band's name means "crazy food" in Italian, so as you should expect, many of their songs are about food. Lead singer Miho Hatori's stories in between songs were absolutely hilarious. Of course, many of them were about food, but she addressed [...]

Toronto - It's been awhile since we did one of these posts, but lets not dwell on what is in the past and go to the present. My Morning Jacket July 11, Kool Haus It sure took a long time, but Kentucky's My Morning Jacket can be certified as rock stars now that Circuital has become a certified smash success with not just the indie crowd, but with regular upstanding citizens as well. Jim James and his bearded friends bring their live stage show to the Kool Haus tonight for [...]
There are lots of big names coming to town this week, although I don't really care to see any of them (U2, My Morning Jacket, Fleet Foxes). I do have some recommendations though: Lucero Vans Warped Tour, The Flats at Arrow Hall, Jul 15th This is the weakest Warped Tour line-up I've ever seen. They get a pick for sheer volume of bands though. There are a handful that you shouldn't miss,
Minh Tran Late last week the reunited, and still as adorable as ever, Cibo Matto came to town. We dispatched Minh Tran —also, still as adorable as ever—to take some photos. Enjoy. [ Subscribe to the comments on this story ]

Cibo Matto fue una banda que obtuvo gran popularidad en los años 90 gracias a su combinación de jazz, hip-hop, música brasileña y africana, los samples (que también comenzaron a ser muy utilizados en ese entonces) y las voces dulces y etéreas de Yuka Honda y Miho Hatori . Sin embargo, hay que decir que la banda sólo alcanzó a lanzar con mediano éxito dos discos antes de su separación en el 2001, que se produjo, de acuerdo con Yuka Honda, por una simple necesidad de buscar nuevas oportunidades. De hecho, sus integrantes continuaron [...]
Cibo Matto supo ser una de las bandas más innovadoras de la escena neoyorkina de los '90. Sin embargo, allá por el comienzo del milenio, la banda conformada por Yuka Honda y Miho Hatori decidió desempolvar sus instrumentos y comenzar a trabajar en nuevo material . Las nuevas canciones de Cibo Matto verán la luz en el 2012. Sin embargo, para calmar las ansias, el dúo tocará una serie de shows en Estados Unidos . Quizás, tendremos [...]
Shoko Ishikawa If you've been reading this site for a little while, you may have noted that as of this Saturday - rapture notwithstanding - I'll be en route to (hopefully) sunny Barcelona for a week and then on to London for a few days as a chaser. And if you've been reading this site for a while longer, you may recall that no other band more vividly conjures memories of my last visit to the England than The Clientele . Which is why the existence of Amor de Días , which [...]
Cibo Matto, the ground-breaking and genre-bending duo of Miho Hatori and Yuka C. Honda, happily announces their reunion with two short "sneak preview" tours this summer, calling the tours "Yeah Basically Cibo Matto." The first, from June 21st-26th, will be on the West Coast, with a second East Coast/Midwest run July 11th-20th. Miho and Yuka are also in the process of writing new songs for an upcoming album, which is scheduled for release by early 2012. One can expect to hear some of these new songs, as well as many from their '90s repertoire, at these upcoming shows. [...]
