In case anybody was wondering, this blog is named after a song by an American band called Experimental Dental School, or XDS as I think they're currently known. They have the whole album, Forest Field , that the song is taken from for free at their website, here . It's guitar twang-and-shriek, drums rattle, and vocal sometimes-harmonised weird goodness. It used to be a guy on guitar and a girl on drums. Now it's the same guy on guitar and a new guy, replacing the girl, presumably on drums. They're in the process of making a [...]

Micachu and the Shapes - "Golden Phone" The lyrics to "Golden Phone" are like an explanation for all of Micachu's music: She's fascinated by every bit of sound around her, but it's somehow so elusive and overwhelming. The world turns, her body moves, and love comes and goes but she's just trying to capture and make sense of "that nonsense sound." This epiphany comes in her most relaxed and streamlined composition, which shouldn't come as too much of a surprise. It's still restless, though. Eyes closed, ears open. Buy it [...]

Recommended Show: SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 2009 EXPERIMENTAL DENTAL SCHOOL, LE RUG, & GRANDCHILDREN @ MARKET HOTEL 1142 Myrtle Avenue Brooklyn, NY 11221 $8, 8PM It was a tough call picking only one show to recommend today, considering the wealth of good events going on. Ultimately, I had to settle on the Todd P show at Market Hotel with Experimental Dental School, Le Rug (with Fiasco), Grandchildren, and some band called Oberhofer. Each of these bands alone was an encouraging push to pick it, but them all together? Well, that's just over the top! [...]

As a marketing professional, I am entirely aware that familiarity rarely leads to loyalty. Something else must occur to take it to that next step, but awareness is a key to getting there. I've known of Experimental Dental School since their 2½ Creatures release in 2006, but only now am becoming a true fan thanks to this video for "Royal Fantasy Snow" off their new release, Forest Field . Utilizing lo-fi video and a whole mess of color, XDS does what I typically frown upon - [...]

Back in the long long ago, it was extremely rare to stumble upon free music. In fact, as the historical photograph above documents, many of the musicians of yesteryear were quite fond of playing one note compositions. Not so today! Lucky for all of us, musicians today pepper the sonic landscape with a cornucopia of amazing sounds. And you know what? Many of them offer these sounds for FREE. And that's where we come in; that's where EAR FARM's Free Music Fridays can be of much service to you, the music lover. So come on and click through the following [...]

A bit of a scary band name, but the psychedelic freak duo from Portland Oregon is very impressive with their charmingly bizarre live shows and creative free flowing explosion of a record (which is also free ) Forest Field . XDS sounds bigger than you'd expect, both in numbers and in inspiration. XDS will be at the Hemlock Tavern on the 2nd of October. Mark your calendars. Website Experimental Dental School – [...]

Double Dagger was energy incarnate, set on fire. The bass cranked the noise in unison with the drums, pulsing through the crowd, with the lead singer jumping and screaming, leaping and crawling. The band had a punk sound that took no prisoners. The entire band of three were extremely active, playing with intense emotion. The lead singer wove in and out of the crowd singing his heart out. This'll be a definite addition to my collection of sounds. Fist Fighters were amazing. The lead [...]
