Unless you've been living under a virtual rock—or maybe you just don't like Wilco; we've heard some people fit that description—you already know that the new Wilco album, cleverly titled Wilco (The Album), due June 30 on Nonesuch, is streaming at the band's website. But now you know, just in case you didn't ... No [...]
Music video for "Come Monday Night" by God Help the Girl, directed by Blair Young and Stuart Murdoch.

Date: May 3, 2009 Time: 14.00 Location: The Left Bank, Glasgow Interview subject: Stuart Murdoch, Belle & Sebastian/God Help The Girl Background info: Let's go back nine years. It's a late afternoon in spring and I'm a passenger in a car. We've rolled up to a set of red lights at a pedestrian crossing on Gibson Street in the West End of Glasgow. After a couple of seconds the lights change to flashing amber. There's not a soul around but the car doesn't move. Still they flash, [...]
*heart instantaneously melts* God help the girl, God help her. Check it to the right or click here . God Help The Girl - "Come Monday Night" Directed by Blair Young and Stuart Murdoch(of Belle & Sebastian)

Aubrey Edwards I believe it's traditional that on one's birthday, one should be fed and watered profusely on someone else's dime. So that's exactly what I did last night, for my 34th, and it was all courtesy of NxNE . It wasn't a party just for me, of course. The festival was having their kick-off press conference wherein they promised to announce "all" the bands playing this year's to-do, taking place June 17 to 21 around Toronto, a feat which would have been impressive to see since the reading off of hundreds of band [...]

Ya les habíamos puesto hace algunas semanas el stream de la canción "Come Monday Night" , el primer sencillo del nuevo proyecto de Stuart Murdoch, God Help The Girl , que será lanzado el próximo 22 de junio. Pues ahora no sólo podemos escuchar la canción sino que ya tenemos un vídeo para acompañarla. Éste fue dirigido por Blaire Young y el mismo Stuart. No muy buenas actuaciones al principio pero el tema en mi opinión es lindísimo, así que aquí se los dejo a ver qué les parece. [...]
Following up last Friday's post of God Help the Girl 's single "Come Monday Night," the Stuart Murdoch brain-child already has released a video to support it. The group's principle voice Catherine Ireton gleams in a terric monochrone back-drop, giving a light sheer to her alarming beauty. Fellow God Help the Girl co-singers Celia Garcia and Alex Klobuk shine as well, supporting Ireton's misty-eyed vocals. The only question I have is the sitcom-ish lead for the video into the song. Regardless, the product is beautiful. God Help the Girl's self-titled album is out June 23 [...]

Me and the missus are rambling away together on this one. It's largely new music, bookended by a couple of more well-known things. We Invent a new term - a weird combination of food and sex called culiniungus. We offend the Irish and the Scots. In fact, we are as offensively and predictably us as you could imagine. We were out and totally smashed at the Broken Records gig at the Bowery yesterday, followed by some hot Sneaky Pete's action. There are some disastrously embarrassing pictures here , if you want to point and laugh. The gig [...]
the period after belle & sebastian 's lukewarm release of fold your hands child at the turn of the century was perhaps the most crucial of the band's career. at that point, many had felt the glaswegians had probably run out of ideas and trapped themselves within a tweefolk sound that was beginning to wear thin. the next proper album in 2003, dear catastrophe waitress , provided just the change they needed, boasting a polished gleam without loosing any of its understated charm, a direction pushed to even greater perfection in 2006's the life pursuit [...]
Premier clip pour 'God Help The Girl' et l'occasion de voir que Stuart Murdoch a réussi son casting . Murdoch a réalisé lui-même la vidéo de Come Monday Night qui réunit les trois chanteuses du projet : Catherine Ireton (lead singer), Celia Garcia and Alex Klobouk (on se dit qu'il fallait certainement envoyer une photo pour participer à ce casting). Le projet était au départ une comédie musicale, mais la musique étant prête avant que le script soit fini, il faudra patienter un peu plus longtemps pour voir le film. Pour le disque aussi car il n'a [...]
Helt okej video, om man bortser från det fjantiga introt, till låten Come Monday Night från albumet God Help the Girl som släpps 22 juni.

Ingrid Z As much as I'm looking forward to being in New York next week, I can't help feeling I'm getting there a week too late. For it was this Wednesday night just past that Patrick Wolf played a one-off show at Le Poisson Rouge in Manhattan, previewing material from this forthcoming album The Bachelor - out in the UK on June 1 and in North America on June 2 and August 11, digitally and physically, respectively. And even though said performance was intended to be a mostly solo and mostly acoustic [...]

Early last month information regarding Belle & Sebastian frontman Stuart Murdoch's side-project God Help the Girl was released. Yesterday I got a first listen to the album's single "Come Monday Night" from the album before its scheduled June 22 release from Matador via The Needle Drop . Fellow Scotland native Catherine Ireton sets the very Belle & Sebastian - esque vocals through an array of orchestral pieces that swell the aching voice of the black-haired Ireton. You can grab the official [...]

For those put off, even a bit, by Belle & Sebastian's late-period reinvention as disco-popsters, frontman Stuart Murdoch's God Help The Girl should assuage your worries. A set of vintage Bacharach pop, it plays once again to Stuart's strengths even as he lets other singers take the lead vocals. Such is the album's loose concept, as it soundtracks the imaginary lives of a collection of girls in need of, well, assistance. Stuart's feelings have always run more sympathetic to femine trevails anyway, and thanks to previously unknown singer Catherine Ireton (who graces the cover, too), they're strongly, wryly [...]

Tsuru & The Bride are on vacation. In our absence, TSURUBOT4000, built from an old ipod, leftover bicycle parts, and a vacuum, has been loaded up with my entire iPod. Using a complicated algorithm & dense interweb programming, it will run the library through it's system and post a song that you should, mathematically speaking, enjoy... We take no responsiblity for any "bad music" or "enslaving of all humans" that may or may not occur in our absence... Love, Tsuru P.S. It seems to have taken up a liking to Clone High for [...]
God Help the Girl is a lot of things: it's an album, a story, a movie that hasn't been filmed yet, and above all a new musical project from Stuart Murdoch of Belle & Sebastian. Murdoch envisioned this new project to be something outside of Belle & Sebastian, but don't be surprised if God Help the Girl doesn't sound too far off. GHTG and B&S could be flatmates, cousins, neighbors, or acquaintances at this point. This filmless soundtrack will be out in June on Matador and here's a video that'll help you [...]
"Come Monday Night" - God Help the Girl Me, this is the voice I most feel like hearing after McCauley's. I love that last song but listening to it makes my throat hurt. "Come Monday Night" is a delicious lozenge. God Help the Girl is the name of a side project by Stuart Murdoch, the principal singer and songwriter of Belle & Sebastian. B&S fans will clearly hear the Murdochian touch here in terms of the lilting melody and the general (for lack of a better word) twee-ness. [...]
