Darling will perform a set of her solo material with Billy Wallace of Billy Wallace and the Virginia Blues (formerly of The Wading Girl) on bass, Cameron Cochran of Pop Empire on pedal steel, and Mike Ingram of The Seedy Seeds on guitar and backing vocals. Margaret Darling will be opening for MPMF.11 artist Cheyenne Marie Mize, touring in support of her new EP, We Don't Need [...]
It's hard to imagine that just a few short months ago we were enjoying sunny summer days. 2011 was my best year yet, having achieved a few milestones: four and a half years running FensePost, riding my bike from Seattle to Portland and logging over 1,000 total on those two wheels between January and December, enjoying life with the love of my life (Andi), and a few defining mindset changes that put the two of us on a path to minimalism and frugality. All of this has led to happiness. That the [...]

Nikki Lane – Gone, Gone, Gone. Download "Gone, Gone, Gone" (mp3). Nikki Lane has a voice that belts like Loretta Lynn's on this debut album of delectable, honky tonk country. This EP was released as a precursor to her full-length album, Walk of Shame, which was also released this year. This shortplayer includes the two best songs from Walk of Shame, "Gone, Gone, Gone" and "Coming Home to You," but it also includes two great additional tracks – "Western Bound" and "Down to the Wire." Milo Greene – The Hello Sessions. Download "1957" (mp3). The Hello [...]

Tweet Carousels aren't exactly known for a strong association with great music, unless of course you're a fan of barrel organs playing waltzes. I'm not. Other than kinetosis, they conjure up thoughts of Logan's Run and American Gods - not bad, but again not necessarily all that relevant to auditory joy. Carrousel ( sic - they spell it French-style) do at times lapse into a touch of "Oom-Pah-Pah" 6/8, but it's done with folky charm rather than fairground shtick. [...]
Tweetvaso link Carrousel hail from Tallahassee, Florida, and their music was sent to us with the label of 'dream-pop/folk.' I'd say it tends more to the folk end than the dream-pop end - at least based on "Darling, You're So Mean To Me," the song which has its hooks in me of late. It wheezes...
This show began like any other, but without the transition difficulties. All was smooth. The music, on the other hand, was not. After a long, satisfying week, I was in need of some loud, abrasive rock music. But it wasn't all like that. Due to the cold weather, I mixed in some beach pop, fuzzy dream pop and good old garage rock and pop. Don't forget to hit up the bottom of this post and listen to two tracks from the playlist! "Torn Curtain" by Television [...]
DOWNLOAD: Marvelous Darlings - "I Don't Wanna Go To The Party" Ben Cook with Fucked Up at House of Vans ( more by Chris La Putt ) Pink Eye took to the [Brooklyn stage with his child on his shoulders before ripping through the recent opus David Comes to Life in its entirety. The energy comprised by this band is nearly unmatched by most other acts today. Aggressive vocals, lightning drumming, and shredding guitar blasts make up the concept masterpiece that unfolded live before [...]

Most people associate Ben Cook with Fucked Up and the band's hardcore roots, but his side project Marvelous Darlings takes on a different light altogether. Throughout the last several years the band has released various singles and are now set to release a compilation of sorts combining all the music from those years. The collection is titled Single Life and will be out on November 22nd via Deranged Records . We've got the first track here to offer you, and it's [...]
Usually when people talk about the notorious poster children of Polaris (and one of the best hearted, yet most controversial/polarizing bands in Canada), the discussion focuses on the rather large, shirtless front man. Despite the technical proficiency and vitality each musician brings to the table, the point of entry (and sometimes exit) for Fucked Up is the assuming figure known as Pink Eyes. For me, Fucked Up works best when Damian's vocals are leveled in the mix and the band lets their pop edge bubble up. That's why Matt DeLong and Ben [...]
Click image to download full album Sounds like: Feist, Billie Holliday, The Octopus Project "Zoe Boekbinder - Hollow Bones" What's so good? I have a great deal of respect for a musician who can isolate something a little ambitious and go for it; and Canadian export Zoe Boekbinder has done just that. Zoe has just released her debut album Darling Specimens , which is [...]
The Marvelous Darlings , the power pop side project from Fucked Up's Ben Cook, will be releasing Single Life on Deranged Records . The album, out November 15th, 2011 on digital and vinyl formats, compiles a string of 7" vinyl releases by the Marvelous Darlings, which have all now long sold out. You can find the artwork here , but note that there is a boob on it.
A spooky new music video from pop darlings Summer Camp that's just in time for the craziness of this coming weekend. And don't forget to check out their debut LP, Welcome to Condale, available for streaming here . Mp3: Summer Camp - Down
I figured with my previous show being devoted to songs that remind me of sleep, this one would be the opposite. After a few bouts of standard indie rock, things got thick and loud. A shout out to my buddy Brett, for tuning in from Sedro-Woolley. Next time I'll have to add Tullycraft to the list in honor of how we met. The show began with a song off one of my desert island top 5 albums, and ended with a track that's nearly thirty years old. [...]
We usually post up-and-coming rock music about 1-3 times a week so your feedback on this is appreciated. Our blog doesn't focus on one genre and sometimes that's a good thing but sometimes I understand it can be tiresome for some of our followers who prefer only a few different types of music. Personally I [...]
Our Beloved Queen Kylie , Empress of Everything That is Beautiful and Perfect in This World, has just uploaded a behind-the-scenes clip from the photoshoot of her latest fragrance in the Kylie Parfum series, Dazzling Darling . Hanging from a crystal chandelier, working a top hat and channeling a bit of Liza gone Cabaret in a glitter-encrusted chair, Minogue serves nothing less than flawlessness in her newest perfume photo shoot, all with her usual flair of elegance and grace. I bow down forever and ever! [...]
