Last Saturday was a busy one! I was able to hop around Columbus from Mates of State with Other Lives at the Newport. Then down to Gallery Hop to catch Tin Armor at the 83 Gallery and finally Flotation Walls at Carabar. Mates of State Tin Armor Flotation Walls Other Lives [...]

Fiery Furnaces, Flotation Walls Outland on Liberty I Columbus, OH June 16, 2010 Flotation Walls Full set here
Album artwork by Mr. Clinton Reno MP3: Bookmobile - Weekends of our Youth MP3: Ben Schwabe - Crystal Branches First a little disclosure right upfront- I'm an official part of the Columbus Music Co-op volunteer machine, so this is a project which is near to my heart. Looking beyond my obvious lack of objectivity, I think most of you reading this have some shared interest in the Columbus music community and will appreciate both the efforts and the [...]
mp3: Flotation Walls - Body These guys just shared me this, and a few other tracks via my tragically under-utilized soundcloud , and I'm impressed to say the least. Head on over to their myspace if you want to check out a handful of other wonderful tracks.
Flotation Walls ( photo by Jen Duane ) MP3: Flotation Walls - Willis The Fireman MP3: This is My Suitcase - Fish and Dishes On Friday night, Circus will be hosting the fourth annual Mission:Kids benefit, and they've enlisted some great Columbus bands to help raise money for CD101's children's charity CD101 for the Kids . This means that in addition to a night of high-quality local music (see lineup below), [...]
Anticipation can be a relatively deceptive thing. It has no bearing on the actual result of a product or action, even if hype can sway us otherwise. I can only imagine how the few remaining Guns N' Roses fans felt those 15 years between new albums, only to experience Chinese Democracy as an average release [...]
...last summer, we hosted Columbus outfit Flotation Walls and witnessed a captivating live set by one of the most inventive indie outfits in the region. The quartet take up the anthemic mantle of The Polyphonic Spree and steering toward a slightly less-psychedelic realm of freakiness from Of Montreal or The Flaming Lips. Flotation Walls weave a intimate-yet-bombastic tapestry of chamber pop fused...

Three Columbus bands are playing album-release shows on Friday night, and they're all worth mentioning/attending. At the Rumba Cafe, Brian Harnetty will be releasing Silent City , his second album for Chicago's Atavistic Records. This one again finds Harnetty mining the treasures he collected from the Berea College Appalachian Sound Archives, but this time Harnetty's instrumentation (accordion, bells, etc.) sets the tone for the songs. And floating above three of the tracks are the vocals of Bonnie "Prince" Billy. It's Harnetty's best work yet. Harnetty rarely plays live, [...]
Pictured: Twinkie Wiener Sandwich@Hillbilly Drive-In. HAHAHA JK!!! I'm gonna keep it up until Duffy stops paying me HAHAHA I guess I've finally recovered from/managed to totally repress the Rock on the Range debacle enough to move on with my life and regurgitate more of my feeble thoughts into words for all you super awesome, totally amazing jerks to read. I think I'm scarred for life. I mean more scarred. Whatever. This account of events that I observed actually occurred only over the weekend because I'm too poor to [...]
MP3 : Willis the Fireman by Flotation Walls Flotation Walls , lead in one version or another by Carlos Avendaño, have been haunting the Columbus music scene for what seems like nearly a decade. During those years there have been flourishes of activity and long periods of apparent dormancy. But one thing we've been missing throughout is a proper full length from these guys. So to say that the release of the Nature LP tomorrow at Skully's has been a long time [...]
Flotation Walls: I'm a Bear I'm Amelia Earhart! Just kidding...I'm a bear. This song is so hilarious to me, but then again, I love absurd humor. It's definitely one of those song where you hear it and your first reaction is "What the...?". But as far as songs that literally make me laugh out loud go, this song takes the cake. It's so bizarre, it's most certainly not something I've heard anything like before. Unfortunately, other than their MySpace page there is little information [...]
