![[MP3] Forbidden Friends – "Tiny Hands"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3783399_lg.jpg)
hold you in my lap, pet you like a cat, and feel the sun shining until the moon rises ♫ Forbidden Friends - Tiny Hands The Thermals' frontman Hutch Harris has a side project where he still collaborates with the other two Thermals members (Plus the drummer from Telekenisis). So, if we have learned anything after yesterday's Alexander post , it's that the modern side project is all about working with your normal band. But whatever, really, because this is fun stuff. Like Thermals lite. A bit more laid back and [...]

Once again we're deluged from all sides by some top notch tunes. So here is the best of what we've picked up via the web and into our in-box recently. Consider a smorgasbord of musical sounds - all you gotta do is take the ones you like. Easy! First up is a new track from the Dex Romweber Duo . The Death of Me is another fine example of their feral blues mixed with some freewheeling rockabilly guitar licks. Download The Dex Romweber Duo - The Death Of Me mp3 (from [...]

As a long time fan of the Thermals , I'll always be dedicated to anything that's associated with the band. Luckily for me, and for you as well, Hutch never really writes a bad song. His new solo project, Forbidden Friends just released a the new Totally Low 73 on Kill Rock Stars , and it's been playing on my turntable all night long. It might not have the sharp edge of the Thermals, but you can hear [...]
Надеюсь, вы никогда не сомневались в том, что все участники Deerhunter – очень странные люди. Например, Hutch Harris. У него есть сольный проект Forbidden Friends, издающийся на лейбе с говорящим названием Kill Rock Stars. То, что вы увидите – дикое сочетание музыки, текста, хореографии, мимики, анимации и безграничного желания выпустить много своих песен. Так или иначе, никто не останется равнодушным. Интересно, это нормально – хотеть себе такой же клип? Кстати, группа устроила необычный конкурс ремиксов на песню «For You» и предлагает скачать на сайте партию ударных к этой песне, чтобы записать свою версию или создать на [...]

1. The Bloodsugars - "Accident (Acoustic Version Ruff Cut)" (While the band is putting the finishing touches on their forthcoming new album, Jason sent me an exclusive rough cut of an acoustic version of "Accident", the closing track from 2009's excellent I Can't Go On, I'll Go On . Instead of the original's electro-pop, this new version is complete with doo-wop background vocals, pounding piano, handclaps, and lively horns for a Motown approved reinterpretation.) www.thebloodsugars.com/ Download: http://www.zshare.net/audio/87 82531954677f47/ [...]
People have sometimes, over the years, wondered if part of why the Pacific NW is such a musically innovative region is that there are so many months when rain forces people indoors, that there's nothing left to do but make music. While there may be truth to that, there is most certainly a tipping point, in which the rain not only forces you indoors, but also drains your will to live, or at least your will to create. It's been an especially rainy fall and winter here, and while that's not necessarily the only factor that's kept me [...]
It was either the delirium that comes from being so close to a race or the desire to give myself as much of an edge as I could that I picked up my latest issue of Runner's World and scoured the Athlete's Palate section for something good to cook. What I found was an old friend, Mark Bittman , offering a scaled down version of macaroni and cheese. Bittman's mac and cheese contained no cream or butter and pureed cauliflower took the place of some of the pasta. It took me a few bites to get into [...]

The Thermals' front-man, Hutch Harris, has embarked on a new project under the moniker Forbidden Friends. We've got a sample of it right here in the shape of the band's debut single, 'Tiny Hands', which is out on Kill Rock Stars on March 15: 'Tiny Hands'
Ever wonder what The Thermals might sound like unplugged? Yeah, I wasn't exactly pondering this either. But it isn't necessarily a bad thing. Hutch Harris offers an answer to this question that many of us never really considered or cared about. Harris, the lead singer and guitarist, for The Thermals, typically offers up super-catchy and...
Thursday, February 10, 2011 Today's Quick Mention: Miss out on some of the Best Picture noms? Or maybe you just want to see them all again? Then it might be a good idea for you to check out the mini-marathons that the Alamo Drafthouse will be having. If you actually go be sure to tell them I should get paid for this generous plug. I realize an EP on a Thursday is a bit out of the ordinary, but I had five songs that needed to [...]
Nimble, nasal vocals dance over a guitar progression that would make John Darnielle at least smile on Forbidden Friends' debut single "Tiny Hands." As a split from Portland power-poppers The Thermals (if this doesn't make you scream, "Now we can see!" you've missed it), Forbidden Friends share the certain candor of the their parent band, each lyric self-consciously confessional and
