Comenzamos esta semana, que coincide con el comienzo “oficial” del mes de septiembre –porque las cosas nunca pueden comenzar un sábado-, con nuestra lista de las mejores canciones de agosto. Entendemos que, en el breve lapso de un mes, pueden develarse infinidad de nuevas canciones que nos dejan un tanto mareados en el mundo de la música. Por eso, hemos confeccionado esta lista. Desde los excelentes The xx hasta el regreso de The Killers y Bob Dylan, pasando por el experimento electrónico de Cat Power y Florence Welch, aquí están las 10 mejores canciones del mes de agosto.

“You are the music while the music lasts.” -T.S. Eliot Bob Dylan – “Scarlet Town” Both teaser tracks for Bob Dylan’ s upcoming LP Tempest (out September 10th via Columbia) have come from the Cinemax series Strike Back (of all the shows out there, why is an obscure Cinemax original series pimping the legendary Bob Dylan?). The singer-songwriter previewed a new one, “Scarlet Town”, during the show's series premiere, and te 60-second snippet provides a snapshot of what we can expect from the full track: [...]

I still have an iPod, which I'm told is an archaic piece of equipment. On it is a lone song by Ghetto Cross entitled, "Dog Years", which came out in 2008. Fuck, my iPod is ancient. Many times I've looked at the lone Ghetto Cross song and considered removing it in order to create space for new music, but with each listen to the boozy, fragmented boos and scratches of "Dog Years" I held out hope that the project between Bradford Cox and Cole Alexander would surface unde...
Bradford Cox and Cole Alexander have fired up their Ghetto Cross project again with the release of a new tune entitled Still. According to Cox the track "is about the relationship that develops between two young boys, one of whom is autistic and cannot talk and the other who is an outcast and beaten by his emotionally abusive father." What's not to love? Give it a whirl. Ghetto Cross; Still

En lo personal, esta es una de esas cosas que nunca me llegue a esperar que ocurririan, o al menos no en un futuro cercano ya que Branford Cox, tanto como Cole Alexander, han estado muy ocupados con sus respectivos proyectos como Deerhunter y Black Lips. Bueno, pues tal parece que ambos han optado por desenpolvar su proyecto alterno que decidieron armar juntos por alla del 2008 de nombre Ghetto Cross, en el cual ademas han reclutado a las dos piezas que previamente eran conocidas como Balkans. "Still" es el nombre de esta nueva cancion [...]

Yelp! Yelp! Holler! Waaaaaaah! Thanks Lil Wayne and ODB! There's not much else to say other than that title. The Atlanta boys took their want for keeping busy and got together this past Saturday (how fucking cool is it about the turnaround time?) and banged out material for a 7" that the two of them have been wanting to create for years now. Here's one of the tracks, called "Dog Years". Destroy. (mp3) Ghetto Cross - Dog Years Godspeed!
