Shawn Fogel has a light-hearted way of conducting himself that makes his lovable indie-pop songs so damn interesting and enlightening. And this is probably why FensePost has featured his worked damn near religiously since his inception of the moniker known as Golden Bloom . With every move the man makes, we are right there behind him. And the release of his fantastic new video for "Rhyme The Reason" should hold no exception. Once again, Mr. Fogel performs brilliantly and in a fashion that is not only entertaining, but might make you wonder think a bit [...]

"Rhyme The Reason" is off Golden Bloom's latest EP, March to the Drums , released back in August. http://www.goldenbloom.net/

In another universe, fairly similar to our own, another you is about to watch a video to a song by New Jersey's Golden Bloom , involving a cardboard robot boy-band performing by a swimming pool. In this video, a drunk bikini girl spills her drink on one of the robots, short-circuiting him, at which point he leaves the band to do good deeds for others. In our universe, however, Portland director Alicia J. Rose realized that the cardboard robot zeitgeist had already been busted , and decided to move on [...]

By Maxwell Silver The Fresh Tracks mixtape series has really exploded since we fired up the first installment last year. So, like Ray Davies of The Kinks screams in the title track of the band's splendid 1981 LP release: "give the people what they want." Because the amount of hits, streams and downloads of the [...] Read more, get songs or stream the entire mix on Indie Rock Cafe

So the waiting period is officially over. The illustrious Shawn Fogel has brought us some new dishes of indie-pop deliciousness to dribble over. Indeed, the comeback of Golden Bloom is, on the surface, a simple EP. But March To The Drums is far from just a collection sample tracks to hold you over until something better comes along. This is the "better" that came along. It is the sort of miniature opus we can always expect from Mr. Fogel. [...]
We absolutely love cover songs. It's probably because, most of the time, they are like something that is familiar but new, which is an interesting dichotomy in and of itself. Plus, recording cover songs can be a risky venture for almost any artist; the more well-known and beloved the original song, the more scrutinized any [...] Read more, get songs or stream the entire mix on Indie Rock Cafe

Frequent readers of RFC are no s tranger to our adoration for Neutral Uke Hotel . I mean, anyone that combines our love of ukulele and Jeff Mangum is pretty much the cat's pajamas in our book. The only shortcoming of the group, perhaps, has been their lack of audible goodness, outside of a few live vids and one lone mp3. If you want to go see Neutral Uke Hotel, you're in luck! The band's been touring quite a bit. But if you, say, want to lay in the guest bed at [...]
![Golden Bloom: Magic Words [mp3]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3023620_lg.jpg)
Shawn Fogel a.k.a. Golden Bloom can do pretty much anything! One thing he seems to be damn good at is picking out nice catchy little tracks to cover. He's enjoyed some success covering Neutral Milk Hotel with a ukulele (as Neutral Uke Hotel), and now he has created something even more exciting. "Magic Words", as some may know, is a cover from the Cincinnati based band Wussy. But with a little bit of the golden touch (all pun intended) Mr. Fogel creates his own spin on what is, for lack [...]

The guitarist in Golden Bloom uses a butter knife for a slide; the drummer used a Rice-A-Roni package as a shaker. Those kind of facts give you an indication of the type of band this is - a fly by the seat of your pants, use whatever you've got on hand type of outfit, just looking to make music. Three quarters of the band's members have recently gained recognition as players in Neutral Uke Hotel, an association they downplayed during their set. Said lead singer Shawn Fogel (also the lead singer of Neutral Uke Hotel), "We've been on [...]
