Eef Barzelay : Joy to the World [ purchase ] According to our friends at Wikipedia, "Joy to the World" is the most published Christmas hymn in North America. The words were written by Isaac Watts from his interpretation of Psalm 98 in the bible, and were published by Watts in 1719. The musical arrangement that we use today is by Lowell Mason, and it is believed that the melody of this 1839 adaptation was inspired by or taken from parts of Handel's Messiah . Watts originally [...]
It's coming on 2012, and all around us, bloggers tout their 2011 taste, jostling to be the best and first match for your own preferences, inviting debate over position in the ranks. And so, as we do every year as the calendar comes to a close, we struggle with the conceit of The Year In Review, surveying a year's worth of posts, writing a never-ending series of half-hearted drafts, flinching every time we approach the task, yet feeling guilt every time we put it down. My reluctance to pass judgement isn't a cop-out. [...]

They say that the road ain't no place to start a family. Well I could say more about Journey but what would be the point considering everyone already knows all the lyrics anyway. Back in 2010 Eef Barzelay and his band Clem Snide took part in the Onion AV Club's undercover series where they did Journey's 1983 epic "Faithfully". This all led to an EP recorded and mixed in Nashville by Mark Nevers (Lambchop, Calexico, Silver Jews) featuring Eef Barzelay on vocals/baritone uke and Tony Crow on piano. The cover art is by Jen Uman with graphic design by Melissa [...]

Janie Jones - Actors Alessandro Nivola and Abigail Breslin play self-destructive rock star father and rediscovered 13-year-old daughter in this music-heavy film based on a true story opening in limited release October 28. Soundtrack album features eight surprisingly good songs sung by the two leads, written by fine Irish songwriter Gemma Hayes (for Breslin's character Janie Jones), who was dating the film's director David M. Rosenthal at the time, and Eef Barzelay of Clem Snide (for Nivola's Ethan Brand) who also handled the film's score...who knew Little Miss Sunshine could sing? Breslin says she's interested [...]
The week leading up to Yom Kippur, The Jewish Day of Atonement, is supposed to be a time for self-reflection, culminating in repentance and a plea for pardon. And though I no longer fast, or belong to a temple, in the last few years, I have continued to use the opportunity as a chance to take stock of the soul, wandering into the woods or just taking a few hours on the front porch alone to make peace with the world both inside and out. This year, it doesn't take much soul-searching to [...]
It's been a tough few weeks, for body and spirit. Our inner city school is badly overstocked this year, with classes too full to manage, and hallways that ripple with energy we can barely control; the stress among the faculty is sky-high, and we're hard pressed not to take it out on each other. Limping into such an environment every morning puts me at a severe disadvantage, but limp I must: I seem to have torn something in my knee, trying to compensate for a flared disk in my lower back, and have grow accustomed to [...]
I've said before that I honestly think Eef Barzelay of Clem Snide is one of the most piercing, insightful, weirdly-perfect songwriters making music right now. I saw him live a few years ago in support of his 2009 release Hungry Bird , and his literacy and ability to emotionally incise caught me in an ambush. I commented that it was like an SAT study party, and we could invite John Darnielle and Colin Meloy and I would die happy. Around that time, this was one of my [...]
This past weekend, the always quality pop culture arm of the immensely popular Onion , The A.V. Club brought their expertise into the real world with the first annual A.V. Fest in Chicago, Ill. Hosted by the legendary Hideout, A.V. Fest was a time of hearty pop culture reflection, with a smattering of under-the-radar or nearly forgotten acts. Not to take away, most every band on the bill was necessary, and gave further insight into The A.V. Club and what the editors value as far as art is concerned. [...]

Eef Barzelay's voice is whiny and pinched, more like Daniel Johnston than anyone else on the circuit, though without the atonality and lack of rhythmic sense which so characterizes the man he often covers in concert. His on-again off-again band, Clem Snide , which he reformed in 2009 after a pair of Barzelay-only solo records, lists themselves as a kind of alt-countrified indie rock, and tends to perform in a slightly nerdy, postmodern grunge vein, resulting in a sparse deadpan sensibility reminiscent of their namesake, a character who appears in several novels by William S. Burroughs. [...]

VAGUE SPACEThanks to all my readers for hanging in there during a year of insane schedules for me that made my updates less than regular. According to the statistics, I've actually lost quite a bit of daily readers this calendar year for reasons that seem clear. I probably haven't posted nearly as often as in past years and not nearly as much new music. Or maybe there's other reasons. But there's still enough daily readers for me to want to continue, so thanks for continuing to come. And if there's a reason you personally do not come by here as often [...]

I AM FUEL, YOU ARE FRIENDS
I AM FUEL, YOU ARE FRIENDS
I've said before that I honestly think Eef Barzelay of Clem Snide is one of the most piercing, insightful, weirdly-perfect songwriters making music right now. I saw him live a few years ago in support of his 2009 release Hungry Bird , and his literacy and ability to emotionally incise caught me in an ambush.

This past weekend, the always quality pop culture arm of the immensely popular Onion , The A.V. Club brought their expertise into the real world with the first annual A.V. Fest in Chicago, Ill. Hosted by the legendary Hideout, A.V. Fest was a time of hearty pop culture reflection, with a smattering of under-the-radar or nearly forgotten acts. Not to take away, most every band on the bill was necessary, and gave further insight into The A.V. Club and what the editors value as far as art is concerned. [...]

The Folkier Side of Eef Barzelay/Clem Snide: covers of Journey, Daniel Johnston, Christina Aguilera, Lou Reed & more!

Cover Lay Down
Eef Barzelay's voice is whiny and pinched, more like Daniel Johnston than anyone else on the circuit, though without the atonality and lack of rhythmic sense which so characterizes the man he often covers in concert. His on-again off-again band, Clem Snide , which he reformed in 2009 after a pair of Barzelay-only solo records, lists themselves as a kind of alt-countrified indie rock, and tends to perform in a slightly nerdy, postmodern grunge vein, resulting in a sparse deadpan sensibility reminiscent of their namesake, a character who appears in several novels by William S. Burroughs. [...]
