What in the hell was Patrice Bergeron doing there? Principally, you don't chase a man behind the net. You cut the angle and pick him up on the opposite side. Worst case, he flips the script and a backchecker picks him up on the backside. I've had that conversation with squirts for Christ's sake. Second, he was lucky not to get a slashing penalty. Third, if you're gonna slash that dude, keep your stick around his knees. Completely inexcusable. That goal is on him, no questions asked. That said, I'm [...]
Generationals drummer Tess Brunet recently posted an unmastered cut from her forthcoming solo debut as Au Ras Au Ras . I've been keeping a close eye on the project since helping Kickstart it back in October , and then perhaps even more so after learning Everybody Taste favorite Seth Kauffman of Floating Action would be producing the record. "Jon," set on a train with a lovelorn drifting narrator, is a promising taste of things to come with a raw bass and soft organ riding on top of steady uptempo drums and Brunet's honeyed intimate vocals.

DC-based band, Generationals are hitting the road starting today and are staying out for quite awhile, making sure to play to every nook and cranny of these great United States. The band is touring in support of their recent sophomore album, Actor-Caster, which you can pick up over here . If you need a sampling, take a bite out of the video for their single, "Ten-Twenty-Ten" below. If you like what you see and hear, you can check out their tour dates after the jump.

It's late April, which means my thoughts are consumed with the upcoming New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival and my annual pilgrimage to the Crescent City. Typically, these ruminations focus more on brass bands and po-boys than on the latest indie record. However, with the release of Actor-Caster , the New Orleans-based Generationals have managed to interject their infectious sound into my internal musings. Actor-Caster, the band's sophomore LP, presents an indie landscape that is inhabited by dreamy '60s era pop instrumentals, modern electronic sounds, and fluid vocals. The opening track, "Ten-Twenty-Ten," draws the [...]
Django Reinhardt might be the patron saint of all jazz guitarists, but for many of those who built careers on playing electric guitars, Charlie Christian was the inspiration. And even though he had a very short career and has been gone for nearly 70 years, he is still revered by many. The Texas-born (but Oklahoma-raised) Christian wasn't the first jazz guitarist to go electric. Most music historians say that was Eddie Durham, who had some success in the lat 1930s as part of the Kansas City Five. But Christian studied with Durham and then took his mentor's [...]
"It's important for us to record the old way-with analog equipment and tape machines,"explains Widmer of Generationals , "But we also incorporate lots of electronic elements that wouldn't have been available to someone in the '60s. That combination is our sound." Check out the opening track, "Ten-Twenty-Ten," off the band's latest LP Actor-Caster . The album was released March 29th on the consistently great Park The Van . Bright aand sunny with varied influences of soul, pop, and some foot stompin indie rock. If you can hear this track and keep your feet [...]

Ever since Rich's first post on the Generationals, I've been on them and I've been on them hard . The deeper I dig into their catalog of music, the more I am impressed with their insanely catchy style of music. Their music sounds so laid back, so effortless, and oh so perfect for summer . Here's a tracks from their first album, Con Law, that has been burning my ears lately, Generationals - When They Fight, They Fight [...]
It's no coincidence that Generationals seem to keep racking up placements in commercials, movies and TV shows. From "When They Fight, They Fight" on, it's become pretty clear that the New Orleans duo is seriously adept at channeling vintage pop nostalgia. And yet, as indebted as their music may be to its '60s and '70s touchstones, it manages not to fall into the trap of mere recycling, adapting a dusty production aesthetic into something genuinely original. Actor-Caster , the latest full-length from Generationals is another impressive exercise in reinterpretation, and "Ten-Twenty-Ten" might just be the [...]
Generationals is comprised of Ted Joyner and Grant Widmer, former member of the now-defunct band The Eames Era, which split up in 2008. "Greenleaf" is taken from their second album, Actor-Caster , which was released on March 29 via Park the Van Records. The band plays an upbeat and lively brand of indie pop, with influences ranging from summery 60s pop to New Wave. "Greenleaf" features sprightly piano, handclaps, and a bass line that sounds suspiciously like a tuba (which is pretty damn awesome if that's indeed the instrument being played). Releasing this song in late March is excellent [...]
Good things have been reaching my ears recently, from all over the map. In particular, that new Generationals album is on repeat. Bibio and The Weeknd are still holding shit down pretty tough too. Sometimes I like to recap things on the Leftovers. Just kind of take stock of where we're at, or try to tie everything together with a theme. Today, I got nothing to offer but a handful of songs I can't get out of my head. Not to mention, it's a pretty ass day, and there's a free Mos Def show to get to soonish. Hope your [...]

Generations of Rock Beckon Country Mice
Do you know what the best kind of rock is? The best kind of rock comes from a band who so obviously has taken notes from the genres of music that are solely responsible for bringing their own sound alive. Band like these put on live shows that make you burn through an entire pack of cigarettes during their set. Country Mice is one of those bands. Their gnarly blend of jam-band rock, blues, and country is almost a tribute to the foundation of rock. Rock/Country [...]
