If you need someone - The Field Mice

Below the stars - The Field Mice This is the most bedroom song ever written, sending out private hope, private sentiment over some night sky to an other. Clunky lyrics, uninhibited fragility, unconstrained intimacy. An intense fawning in all other respects best left within, swelling and seeping out through song. Everything unsaid, withheld, everything past its moment forced out in quiet desperation. A line drawn, a world bridged, distance cut and need served by wishing, hoping and keeping enough. A vigil carried up and [...]
Black Partridge comprises two brothers from Illinois. The duo have a unique sound that fuses lo-fi rock and pop with caressing sentiments of shoegaze and dream-pop. The older brother, Vito, plays the bass guitar while Mick takes over vocals and guitar. While the pair has yet to release an album, they have four songs available [...]

It dropped 25 degrees yesterday and now feels like Fall but that season doesn't technically drop for five more days, so here's the final Summer Fridays mix of 2011 on an autumnal tip. Which means some '70s folk, sad strings, and mellow grooves. But as always, there's some great new music on here: new singles from Django Django (the first in a year and a half), Still Corners and Radio Dept. offshoot Korvallren and Junk Culture (featuring Phantogram's Sarah Barthel). Plus some oldies, cult obscurities (Yes that's Matt Berry of Garth Marenghi's Darkplace and The IT Crowd [...]
Between hello and goodbye - The Field Mice What a lovely song. Happiness and heartbreak, hello and goodbye - having a someone.
...And the award for the most obvious song to post on a music blog on the 31st August goes to... me! The Field Mice - September's Not So Far Away mp3

Loveless love - The Field Mice The Feelies Mice. The Fieldies. This is a really good cover of an in the first place incredible song. The Field Mice very much make it their own, eschewing the arpeggio outro and other guitar sophistry not becoming them, and replacing the franticness of the Feelies with their own special kind. It is this version i had in my head. It's the tape warble. It comes from a compilation tape called Something's Burning In Paradise [...]

In the March 2008 issue of Mojo, there was a sprawling article on the Smiths. But if you look a little closer (on page 75 to be exact), you'll find a list of bands that were predecessors, contemporaries, and influencers on Morrissey, Marr & Co. These "indie" bands, oft classified as C81/86 or as part of Sarah or Postcard records, shared some of the jingle and jangle of the Smiths, without the spotlight. While some of the bands may remain in their cult status, others I must admit, I did listen to occasionally or often: Wild Swans, Orange [...]

Seapony - Emma's House [The Field Mice] | zs

Song six - The Field Mice Yes... Maybe i'm still so used to a certain type of delivery in songs such as these, making this sound to me a little off - a little patronising, a little regressive, a little pathetic. Its earnest tweeness seems like a tip toe around the issue. But it was worked from the heart, without rhetoric, in a language that really did not exist then, in a type of music that, now, then and throughout, rarely explores themes like [...]

Yesterday's menace gives way to the poster children of tweedom. But Songblague has the gentleness of a true tough guy. Which allows us to smile on this song, pet its tender head, and take it by the sweatered arm into our warm home. The lyrics are a crock of shit (go find anyone with such a sanguine view of breakups), but the lilt makes me go along with it. Tease me and I'll rip your arm off. The Field Mice - When Morning Comes To Town

Calm Palm Vapor From: Chicago, United States Calm Palm Vapor is a four piece post shoegazing band from the South Side of Chicago. They have just released their new album 'Morning Pacific' . Where the classic shoegazers built an ear splitting wall of sound with layer on layer of guitar 'Morning Pacific' is more sublimely melodic and wonderfully contemplative. Hate To See You Smile is a languid, deep pool of a track conjuring up [...]

Photography by Me ! What is twee? Since the beginning of the dawn of man, this question seems to exist at the very core of our being... I asked the Super Desserts during my interview , and the standard mentions of cutesy music and not-so-cutesy lyrics came up, but really what is cutesy? Is THIS twee? What about this? *shrug* But really, this is really not about "twee", [...]

Pop music formed by '60s girl groups are often subjected to ancient stereotypes. Joyous harmonies, lyrics consisting of nothing more than multiply layered "doo-wop-da-doo-wop"s, and a subtle sway of the hips for sex appeal (or the most of what was allowed of it on TV at the time). While much of what was considered [...]
