Growing Pains will be released via the Friends Vs Records label and will be preceeded by a single, Birds And Planes , out July 26th. Lead singer Matt Bigland had this to say about the forthcoming record; "I know it sounds bent but I liked the idea of people to be able to sing along to the songs, even if they were singing about being hated or upset. I wanted to make [...]

Growing live is a rather spiritual, not religious, experience. It's too loosey goosey for the rituals. I witnessed them offer a very competitive opening set for Mogwai a few years back, and though there was nothing much to watch, per se, hearing their very warm and resonating drone assault, as suffocatingly prominent as their rapid-fire fractured guitar architecture, over a 8,000 watt PA felt like marching into Mordor. Shit was powerful. Growing has, in the past, often been described as doom. I never really agreed with that. Perhaps it’s because I saw them later at a party cracking wise [...]
Enlighten your self with some music. It's another stellar week of shows in Atlanta

HOT DAMN this sounds like its going to [...]
Answer the question and win 2 tickets to see Growing at The Earl on Tues. May 11
Free, free, free! I am loving all of these free shows. And this is only the beginning. Drink Up Buttercup, longtime NYRM faves, have a brand new album out, Born And Thrown On A Hook . It's the fully realized form of all their songs that been floating around for awhile now, and it's very good. It's a little bit difficult to get truly attached to many of the tunes, especially since they're so explosive in a live setting. Still, I'd compare the album to all of the weirdest tracks on the White Album , "Bungalow Bill," "Piggies," [...]

Yours Truly pull it off again. The bookend musings from Ekhi Lopetegi add a nice bit of context to what's otherwise a bare bones performance vid.
Filed under: News , Video , New Music , Exclusive Florence and the Machine 's debut album 'Lungs' has garnered praise from critics and music lovers alike and won numerous awards, including Best British Album at the 2010 Brit Awards. Surprisingly, Florence Welch reveals that 'Lungs' almost didn't see the light of day. "I didn't even want to release it," Welch tells Spinner. "I was so scared. You can't even think what people's reactions are going to be because it's like someone [...]
If I could sum up this week's biggest live Bay Area events in one nonsensical fake-Spanish declaration, it would be this: ¡YO LA COCO! Over the next few days we'll have multiple live performances from both Conan O'Brien and Yo La Tengo, as well as an exhaustingly awesome array of other rad shows. Check out [...]
Growing are a band doing really interesting things with thier record PUMPS . It is easy to see why the Olympia, Washington band has been so readily absorbed by the New York art and fashion indie scene. Here are some weird facts about the members of Growing . Kevin (left) once did an interview with Vice Magazine while on DMT. Chloe Sevigny has been quoted saying that Joe (centre) was one of the inspirations behind [...]

Hey, so Friday Finds 15 got busted up for some reason by the DMCA, so here's a couple nice ones. One's from this krauty synth band Growing which in all likelihood will get remixed by Neon Indian in the next week. Also this new cut "Shutterbug" off Big Boi's forthcoming. How does he stay so fucking relevant? Blending these Juno stabs from glofi, pitched off vocals from the cracked out crunk of Hudmo and the like, and even a guitar part that could have come straight from a surf track. Somehow he still keeps to [...]

One of the best beat records i've heard this year is this Free The Robots LP, it has the freshness of freedom in the studio and no pressure of having to be hype or head nodding just a great collection of tracks. Tobacco has teamed up with Beck a couple of times on the new album Maniac Meat , the record reminds me of the first time I saw a Garbage Pail Kid card, it was harsh yet I couldn't have enough. UPDATE: Needed to take [...]
