Tonight's touts: ► Early Winters — the new collaboration featuring U.K. singer Carina Round, Toronto-based Justin Rutledge and L.A. jacks-of-all-trades Dan Burns and Zac Rae — continue their residency at the Hotel Cafe. The foursome's Americana-tinged EP (released March 8) features some nice moments from both vocalists Round and Rutledge. Australian quartet the Jezabels also perform. ||| Download: Early Winters, "Tough Love" ► Liam Finn plays the Autry Museum behind his new album "FOMO" (visit his [...]
Another SXSW has passed, and this year, I intended on doing a daily diary, but the internet kind of sucked in our hotel, and I also really wanted to sleep, so instead you get this: a big, huge list of everything awesome at SXSW, including some amazing day parties thrown by our friends at [...]

If you made it out to The Sail Inn last night you were treated to a very full house and for the first half I stuck around for... a very good show. I probably shouldn't have gone in the first place because I was feeling like crap. But I went and made it till the end of Cloud Nothings then had to bail. Oh and some pretty cool news, ElectricMustache was selected as today's " Blog of Note " from the Blogger staff. Thank you Blogger staff... you are super rad! I did manage to get a few [...]

[SXSW artists continue to head out west and L.A.'s got a thick batch of them all week. Here are three artists who are opening the next few nights up at some of our beloved local venues:] ► Cloud Nothings , "Should Have" — Dylan Baldi of Cleveland, Ohio, has not only outgrown his bedroom and laptop but also expanded into a band on tour in support of their self-titled debut. Cloud Nothings brings their catchy lo-fi pop songs to the Troubadour on [...]

We missed these. They are all excellent and we missed them. So just in case, (like us) you are late coming to them, then you're in for a real treat - from the unwavering desolation of Josh T Pearson to the gung-ho garage riffs of Jeff The Brotherhood , all of these should (if we'd been doing our job properly) have been up on MM long before now. We have failed. We must try harder as our school report regularly used to say. But enough of the self-pity and [...]

If you were not lucky enough to make it out to Austin for SXSW this year don't fret... SXSW is being brought to Tempe tonight at the Sail Inn. It might be a pile of ass outside as far as weather goes and I might have a sore throat but I am still going to be there with bells on. Check out this line-up for heck sake!

Após ter abraçado as sonoridades lo-fi cruzadas com aquilo a que se pode chamar noise-pop tal como outras bandas, a maioria norte-americanas, o fizeram (Wavves, No Age, Japandroids, Women, Male Bonding, entre muitos outras), Dylan Baldi, também conhecido por Cloud Nothings, começou a produzir a sua própria música sob o alter ego Killer Cat e felizmente muitas delas compiladas pela Carpark Records
Filed under: Video of the Day Artist: Cloud Nothings Video: 'Should Have' Highlight: Braided ponytails play an important part in this bonding experience.

Con un leve delay traemos a ustedes una nueva edición del Music Alliance Pact (MAP), una iniciativa del blog escocés The Pop Cop nacida hace más de 2 años, y de la cual formamos parte desde sus inicios. Para marzo destacamos el trabajo de Prehistöricos , elogiados hasta más allá de nuestras fronteras por su trabajo de octubre pasado La orquesta oculta , disponible para descarga gratuita acá . CHILE : Super 45 Prehistöricos [...]
This music video may be the human-to-object relationship that actually tugs a bit at my heart strings. Yes, I’ll hide my head in a shame for a bit. But regardless of my embarrassing sensitivity, you gotta check out this band. Cloud Nothings is just another one of those lo-fi beach-punk bands. In this particular generation of this nearly flooded genre, it’s hard to differentiate oneself from the heavy hitters, such as Wavves or Surfer Blood . But Cloud Nothings has got a bit of their own color: a carefree and radiantly cheerful sound [...]
If what they say about age and wisdom is true, you'd already be wise enough to know that you should turn off the Weather Channel, set down those prunes, and give these young whippersnappers a listen.
Você acha que já viu tudo? Com o Cloud Nothings , "tudo" não existe, não há limites. Esse vídeo e esse outro aqui já mostraram o quão longe pode ir a louca criatividade de Dylan Baldi e sua turma. Agora, no vídeo para Nothing's Wrong , dirigido por Matt Wells, a banda transforma as ruas e as casas de qualquer pessoa num supermercado e o carrinho de supermercado, sua grande paixão. É hilariante, é nonsense, é maluquice. É Cloud Nothings . Só vendo mesmo. Leia [...]

They usually sound like a wild rampage of 70s-like guitar riffs and distortions, especially on their new album Freak. This song is the exception - an intimate acoustic ballad with Spanish lyrics inspired by [...]

As we prepare to travel to SXSW in search of some excellent new bands, we might as well listen to some equally excellent tunes from bands around the world via March’s edition of the Music Alliance Pact. For those of you who don’t know about MAP, it’s a collection of music blogs from around the world who band together once a month to shed light on up-and-comers from their home countries. It’s sort of like the WTO without the human rights violations. After the jump you’ll find music from 34 nations spanning the globe. If you’d like to [...]
