The Animal Kingdom: The Caterpillar

May 23, 2:06pm Star Maker Machine

The Cure : The Caterpillar [ purchase ] Skittering sticky sweet and sensual from the close confines of The Top , perfect pep deception from an imperfect post- Pornography, post-Pop epiphany Cure curiosity. Onomatopoeic ticks and clicks scratch as cocoons hatch, new wings stretch and bend, a heart swoons and rends. Lies and disguises belie the truth he can't quite hide - gossamer bears away what gossamer lies hold back, and she was never in his league, not really. He may be a caterpillar, but she isn't. [...]

Songs That Travel: 10 More Themes for Great Cities

May 22, 10:54am THEME FOR GREAT CITIES

Here's the thing about lists. Just when you think you've completed one, and you've sent it out into the world, you start to remember all of the things you left off of it. Here are 10 more songs I love about places I love or would love to visit one day. "On a Bus to St. Cloud" Trisha Yearwood She's actually referring to St. Cloud, Minnesota, but I like to pretend she's singing about the one in Florida, where I graduated from high school. [...]

James & Evander: Bummer Pop

May 19, 11:55am Violent Success

James & Evander: Bummer Pop - James & Evander are a synth pop duo from Oakland, CA. There are a few things that struck me about J&E when I first heard them: The almost chill-wave-like quality to their mixing and synths layered over their beat-heavy melodies were first and foremost. Add to that their soft-spoken vocals and somewhat distant lyrics and they endear themselves to you before they've really gotten started. Then they continue... My first impressions of them came courtesy of Velvet Blue Music and their EP, Constellating [...]

Flashback Friday:Cure-iosity killed the…

May 18, 11:00am Versions Galore

Apparently we're doing back to back Flashbacks. Though yesterday's somewhat tragic post was a bit unplanned, today's proper Flashback Friday revisting of The Love Cats by The Cure was inspired by a recent jazzy electronic soul version by Kinny . Kinny shares space with the likes of Alice Russell, Belleruche, Nostalgia 77 and more on the utterly excellent Tru Thoughts label, which has gotten into the awesome habit of breaking new artists via some uncommon sounding downtempo covers. So even though we featured a [...]

DIIV

May 11, 3:40am Unpiano

//photo by erez avissar Do I even need to tell you about this by now? DIIV is basically writing new Cure songs, which sounds like a diss but is actually the best thing to happen in a long time. Formerly called Dive and made up of guys like Zachary Cole Smith from Beach Fossils and Colby Hewitt from Smith Westerns, DIIV is relasing their new album Oshin on Captured Tracks (who the fuck else) in June. I missed their show last month in San Francisco because I am no good [...]

East London`s Trim The Barber, Debut EP Release.

Apr 30, 6:31pm MOJOPHENIA

Photo Credit Elyssa Iona "Trim The Barber are four-piece Psychedelic-Post-Punk-Shoegaze rs from East London. A Combination of the melancholic style of The Cure, the spiky snarl of Wire and the considered sonic attitude of A Place To Bury Strangers. The lush musical euphoria of shoegaze meets the cold atmosphere of minimalist post punk. The self-titled debut EP was released on April 9th". In my eyes an EP is a roaring success if half the content gives me the reason to dig a little deeper into a band's reason for making music in the [...]

Los cien rostros de Robert Smith

Apr 21, 4:22pm Cuchara Sónica

¿De verdad es fácil recordar cuál fue la primera vez que escuchaste a tu banda favorita? Puede que sí, de hecho, al hacer esta pregunta, más de uno ya estará pensando en la canción que introdujo por primera vez a tus oídos a esa banda que no has dejado de oír desde entonces. Aunque yo creo que no es tan simple. Por ejemplo, yo recuerdo perfectamente bien la primera vez que conocí y me enamoré de mi grupo preferido, aunque el otro día encontré un cassette con grabaciones de la radio y me sorprendí al encontrar ahí una [...]

Into the Trees: A Goth Video Roundup

Apr 20, 11:45am KEXP Blog

All day today, we're playing celebrating Robert Smith's (April 21) by playing your favorite songs by The Cure and other goth favorites. As a genre and a style, "goth" is pretty easy to stereotype (see The Damned's "Grimly Fiendish" for a particularly campy version), but the truth is its influence spreads far and wide. Goth is a thread that connects industrial bands like Einstürzende Neubauten to romantic new wavers like Gene Loves Jezebel (though you'd never find their fans in the same room!) through all manner of dark if not mopey music. Gathered here you'll find indisputable Goth pioneers like [...]

This Week in Music History: April 15-21 -- Michael Jackson Catches Fire and More

Filed under: News AFP In Greek mythology, Icarus was the guy who flew too close to the sun only to have his wings melt, causing him to fall back into the sea where he drowned. Back in 1984, Michael Jackson was flying high, the undisputed biggest musician in the whole world. And even though his wings were metaphorical, he got burned in a very real way. There are those who would believe the catalyst for the [...]
