Their sophomore record Days is out and about , occupying prized positions in many a record store just as it'll quite rightly do on several end of year lists. The newly-released vid to It's Real (below) reveals their startling affection for creatures of the canine variety, while simultaneously solidifying their penchant for thrift store threads. We fired some questions at bewhiskered bassist Alex Bleeker of Jersey boys Real Estate . Speaking seasons, shacking up in Brooklyn, and singles carefully constructed in a boardroom (not) here's what came hurtling its way back out of the obscurity of the internet... [...]

Ducktails, the solo side project of Real Estate guitarist Matthew Mondanile, has slowly been winning me since the release of Ducktails III: Arcade Dynamics back in January. Given my lukewarm appreciation of Real Estate, I was surprised how much I've been digging on Mondanile's Woodsist debut. One reason may be that the sounds are all warm and lo-fi homemade concoctions, which remind me of my own experiences playing around with a flanger pedal and an 8-track in my parent's basement. But there's also something vibrant and sunny about these songs, none more so than "Hamilton Road." While Mondanile's [...]

Instores, now something of an almost exclusively American phenomenon (a brief peruse of the Amoeba Music calendar at any point, ever, is enough to fill even the most blasé music devotee with envy), seem to animate the fanatic adolescent within every attendee and last night in Rough Trade East was no exception to such a trend. Thus hearing Municipality wafting out from beyond the shop's glass doors, sounding distinctly different than on record and not quite right, is an enthusiast's delight. Real Estate are soundchecking, and also run through the truly impeccable summertime sloop of Out [...]

In any given week there's always a ton of NYC-area shows spanning across multiple genres and styles, but it seems like this week's concert calendar is even more sonically random than normal. Here are the highlights as I see 'em... Early in the week, we've got Explosions in the Sky with the Antlers at the beautiful Wellmont Theatre (in Montclair, NJ). Elvis Costello - who I mentioned last week - continues to bring his "Spectacular Spinning Songbook" to the area, with a show at the [...]
at first we thought this clip was a simple homemade intro of a '70s TV show, butt then various names from the BIG TROUBLES, the VIVIAN GIRLS and the FAMILY PORTRAIT appear in the DUCKTAILS latest HAMILTON ROAD video, jamming around the house and the unknown town they be in. something kinda lovely for your Sunday AM lovings. wotyougot
Ирония. Некоторым нашим читателям она так надоела, что они начинали использовать её с иронией. В этом свете сложно найти подходящий ключ к новому видео Ducktails «Hamilton Road», в котором группа изо всех сил пытается играть некрутых ребят. Они и есть некрутая группа, в самом широком смысле слова. Они даже впутали в это дело Kickball Katy из La Sera и Vivian Girls, которая смогла продать половину тиража сольного альбома просто поместив свой портрет на обложку и снявшись в умильном клипе. Песне, кстати, уже не меньше года, она успела надоесть многим ещё до того, как человечество узнало о Джеймсе Блейке, [...]
" Hamilton Road ", so der Songtitel zu dem es seit heute nun auch ein Video gibt. Der Song selbst muss schon fast ein Jahr alt sein, wenn ich mich recht erinnere. Gedreht wurde natürlich auf der Hamilton Road in Ridgewood, NJ und Umgebung. Ob verlassene Häuser, Wiesen oder Mulch-Hügel. Nimm einfach ein Instrument in die Hand und blödel ein bisschen rum. Schon hast du ein Musikvideo, indem du die Credits den halben Song lang einblenden kannst. Achja und Mädchen mit langen roten Haaren, nais. via [...]
This is probably my strongest post in some time, I really hope you get down on these songs in the same fashion as I have been lately: Glowbug - "The Shows" [mp3] Don't take this lightly when I tell you to go over to Glowbug's Bandcamp page and download this (free) album! That way when [...]
