Bosque Brown - "Went Walking" "Went Walking" is a stunning, eeriely beautiful track off of Bosque Brown 's first full-length release, Baby which hit stores on March 3rd. If you like whiskey, cigarettes or early Cat Power , I highly recommend adding it to your record collection. Young Coyotes - "Momentary Drowning" [Daytrotter Session] Maybe woo hoo ooh hoo oooohohohooo just sounds better live, but this Daytrotter version of the Young Coyotes song "Momentary Drowning" resonated [...]
The show from Clues last night at The Rickshaw Stop was simultaneously one of the most anticipated, and mysterious, of this year's Noise Pop festival. The Montreal band are the only project of Alden Penner since he departed the notorious Unicorns. Since the band made their debut last fall, there has been little-to-no news about their record, aside from one or two mp3s and feedback from fans who were at the shows. Well, HAD managed to catch the set at the Rickshaw last night, and suffice it to say that Clues are very [...]
Clues Perform at Spaceland on Thursday There are a lot of enticing shows this week. Last week I had a great time at The Minor Canon and Le Switch at Spaceland. Then on Wednesday I saw Andrew Bird at the Orpheum. He is a little precious, but damn he's a talented performer. Sounded great too... Monday 2/23/09 [Recommended] Le Switch / Radar Bros . / Andy Clockwise / The Faraway Places @ Spaceland (Free) – The last night [...]
Well if there is one thing we learned about crummy weather and one's love for Montreal based bands, it's that the two go hand in hand or, better yet, ear in ear. Although the suspected effects of global warming may be to blame for this unusually warm weather in November, it's raining today and the weekend is quickly upon us.. time to spin a nice track (from Montreal). If there are few independent rock acts that come to mind when you think of Canada and her delicious maple syrup, I'd venture to say both [...]
Love Is All - "Sea Sick" Josephine Olausson always seems overexcited and slightly stuffed up. It’s hard to get an emotional read on her, as she seems perpetually halfway between spearheading a party and shutting herself in for weeks. In “Sea Sick” she’s railing against the horrors of her ocean cruise, bored to tears as the only would-be-relaxer with “an original hip.” Her mumbly Scandinavian warble is singular enough that it can make the defiant “I’m board to death on board this ship” sound almost exactly like the even further past wits end [...]

Who: Clues Location: Montreal(?), Canada elbo.ws Ranking: N/A (not for long!) Thoughts: With stories popping up on esteemed music websites like Pitchfork and Stereogum the mystery that has been surrounding Montreal based band Clues seems like it is all but set to vanish. The "super group", of sorts, is set to release their debut record in 2009 and already appear to be headed for one of the "must
The tinkering, stutter-stepping notes of elation and abundance of rumors circulating around Clues can mean only one thing--this band is going to kill. Which is no surprise considering it is ...
I normally get a bit anxious about hearing solo albums and side projects; however, I'm always down to hear anything by either of the guys behind the Unicorns. Nick has been supplying us with plenty of music from Islands on down to Human Highway, but this is the first new stuff Alden Penner has been [...]
