Lilja Birgisdottir Advance album streams are pretty par for the course these days, but if anyone can make it a special occasion, it's Sigur Rós . And they're certainly trying to. Though their new record and first in four years Valtari isn't out until May 29, the band will be offering an advance stream of the record on May 17 - that's today, people - but for only one hour. Dubbed " Valtari Hour" , it will roll across the globe at 7PM local time for [...]

Nik Vestberg There's many things I loved about Allo Darlin' 2010 self-titled debut . The jangly guitars, strummy ukulele, and ebullient melodies that put the London-based foresome at the forefront of current bands unashamed to call themselves indie pop - absolutely - but what I found set them apart and made them really special was the way they used those traits to deliver songs that evoked the wistfulness and insecurity of growing up and out and apart. Far too often pure pop music feels strictly a youth movement but here was [...]
"Tiger" is the latest video from Gävle's The Deer Tracks . This particular tune comes off of part 2 of the group's multi-part album series "The Archer Trilogy" .

J. Michelle Martin-Coyne So what are you doing June 16? Are you one of those so conditioned by years of Toronto Radiohead shows selling out in a heartbeat that you tripped over yourself getting tickets for their Downsview gig as soon as they went on sale, even though the new venue was over twice the size of the Amphitheatre and general admission? Or are you one of those conscious of the fact that this is a King Of Limbs tour and realistically speaking, they probably won't be playing the stuff [...]

Cat Stevenslores The general assumption as to whoy Teenage Fanclub release albums so infrequently - 20102s Shadows was just their third effort in the 21st century, assuming you count 2000 as part of this millenium - is that despite having three superb songwriters in their ranks, they just work very, very slowly; if this is true, then clearly bassist Gerard Love isn't the limiting factor. Based on Electric Cables , the debut album from his solo project as Lightships , he has no shortage of [...]

The lovely Swedish threesome that is Twiggy Frostbite, a offshoot project involving members of The Dear Tracks, release another piece of atmospheric magic called `In Darkness Lights Are Out`. The Debut album release from 2009 `Through Fire`provoked international interest and subliminal imagination, giving the sweet sounding lead track `Heroes`an assortment of major radio play. Always an absolute pleasure to feature any new material from the Gefle/Borlänge based band - Although I find myself hopelessly grasping for simple and straightforward answers when dissecting a Twiggy Frostbite dream. "What can we tell you about that feeling? [...]

Tweet I stumbled across Swedish duo The Deer Tracks last night. I was immediately enraptured by Ram Ram , taken The Archer Trilogy Pt.1 EP which was released in March. Particularly the passage from 1:53. Wonderful. Archer Trilogy Pt.1 is followed by, er, Archer Trilogy Pt.2 with another part, the title of which I'll wager you can guess, due later. They're currently over [...]

#OCCUPYDENVER was raided this morning and had most items confiscated. This is the most press the group has garnered and Governor and Mayor have stirred a hornet's nest. This act of breaking up the downtown sector will not sit well with many and a strategic move will be needed to keep the movement going. Things are going to get very exciting 'round these parts in coming days. Baron Bane-Echoes (the Deer Tracks Remix) LANA DEL REY - Blue Jeans (Mover Shaker Remix) Trombone Shorty - [...]

Download : Baron Bane – My Slow World Swedish band Baron Bane have earlier been compared to bands and artists like Mew, Nine Inch Nails, Lykke Li and Ladytron. Their new single shows partly a new direction. My Slow World – the third single from album LPTO – is a personal mixture of the band's earlier influences put in a new context, with singer Ida Long in the centre . LPTO is released this last April 20th by Stupid Dream Records in collaboration with [...]

The Deer Tracks - The Archer Part Two Sweden have presented the UK with an array of talented musicians throughout the years from ABBA, Robyn, The Hives and The Cardigans to Lykke Li, Fever Ray, Jose Gonzales and The Tallest Man on Earth (we'll forget about Basshunter, Eric Prydz, Ace of Base, Rednex and Roxette...). And here's another pair to add to the list. David Lehnberg and Elin Lindfors are the Swedish boy girl pop duo The Deer Tracks and have surprisingly been churning out catchy synth pop [...]
"Fra Ro Raa / Ro Ra Fraa" is from the album, The Archer Trilogy Pt. 2 . http://www.thedeertracksmusic. com
Part twos never really have that special sauce but maybe The Deer Tracks' The Archer Trilogy Pt. 2 have changed our minds.
On July 5, the Deer Tracks will release the second installment of their Archer Trilogy. The nine-track The Archer Trilogy Pt. 2 (The Control Group) is the latest release from the Gävle, Sweden-based, goth/hippie duo of David Lehnberg and Elin Lindfors. Says Lehnberg of Pt. 2, "We're always adding things and doing things differently. We're always changing. We're never satisfied. [...]

If the Wellington Power Corporation had not already irked my ire by damn near surging all my office appliances with their confounded SmartMeter installations, it seemed like this was a week for our sacred cows to tarnish the credibility that we hold dearly for them in our collective hearts. This week we had Lou Reed composing some 10 songs for Metallica to arrange, Paul McCartney re-releasing McCartney I & II to cash-in on his aging baby-boomer fans (in case they forgot about him), Big Sean ...
