Be Prepared: Fleeting Joys | Despondent Transponder [Reissue] | 11 March

Be Prepared: Fleeting Joys | Despondent Transponder [Reissue] | 11 March California-based shoegaze titans Fleeting Joys announced last week that the duo's stunning, twice-out-of-print full-length debut Despondent Transponder will be reissued with bonus tracks March 11 in Japan on the Thomason Sounds label. The reissue is augmented with two electrifying bonus tracks, "Cross Out My Heart" and "Morphine Drip." Both songs are streaming at Fleeting Joys ' MySpace wigwam, and much to our delight the band has consented to our offering "Morphine Drip" as a download, so if you dig the stream come on back and grab the tune. To celebrate the [...]

Nadja

Nadja Nadja is a 1994 film by Micheal Almereyda. It was shot mostly in the NYC's East Village. While it's a bit pretentious it's got some really great perfomances from two Hal Hartley regulars, Martin Donovan and Elina Lowensohn, and a wacky Peter Fonda as Van Helsing. The soundtrack is dope too, boasting tunes from My Bloody Valentine, The Verve and Portishead. The score was performed by Simon Fisher Turner and is up there as one of my favorite records. I believe the album is still in print and is well worth seeking out. You can hear one [...]

Clicky Clicky's Top Albums Of 2009

Clicky Clicky's Top Albums Of 2009 So that was 2009, huh? Besides all the day-job stuff, we'd be happy for another year just like it, musically and personally. We loathe when people say "this year wasn't very good for music" or crap like that, because, frankly, if you're saying that you weren't trying hard enough. There's always more music, and there is always great music. But enough of that rant. We're pleased with the array of artists we spotlight below; we hope you'll find some things here that had escaped your attention heretofore, and that you derive as much enjoyment from listening to them as we [...]

Clicky Clicky's Top Songs Of 2009

Clicky Clicky's Top Songs Of 2009 Here it is, our annual salute to the greatest of the (contemporary) greatest: our most-listened-to tracks of 2009. The usual rules apply: each band only gets one song, so despite the fact that most of our Top 10 most-listened-to 2009 tracks in ITunes are from Johnny Foreigner 's superlative Grace And The Bigger Picture , only the most-played track gets a slot on our list below. The main reason for doing this list is to spotlight great songs that might not have been on an album that warrants best-of-the-best status for the year. The inclusion of George [...]

Review: Fleeting Joys | Occult Radiance [MP3]

Review: Fleeting Joys | Occult Radiance [MP3] We've been talking about it for more than a year, but the sophomore record from Fleeting Joys is finally here. The elephant in the room when discussing the superlative Northern California-based shoegaze duo is the similarity between its music and the most well-known and inflential portion of My Bloody Valentine 's body of work. It bears mentioning and is a useful shorthand, but we expect Fleeting Joys ' John Loring and Rorika grow weary of the obvious comparison (they list MBV first among their influences at MySpace ) even as they are gratified [...]

Shoegaze in 2008 | Five Acts not to be Missed

Shoegaze in 2008 | Five Acts not to be Missed Shoegaze will always remain one of my favorite genres of music, even if I get away from it from time to time, it's something that I always come back to. Granted, shoegaze and dreampop saw their heyday in the early nineties, but today many acts continue to reinvent and push the envelope with the genre. I was reading an interview with Soundpool (one of the bands featured in this post) about the relation among shoegaze, electronica, and indie-pop becoming more familiar in Japan. One of the group's members stated that there has been "a significant change in [...]
