Silversun Pickups - Critically acclaimed "Best New Artist" Grammy nominees gracefully walk the tightrope between bold, intelligent art-pop and prickly, psychedelic indie/ alternative rock on their third longplayer and follow up to their '09 breakout Swoon ... frontman and songwriter Brian Aubert says he and his fellow Pickups marked their tenth anniversary together by discovering a certain "playfulness" in the new tracks, adding, "we just wanted to let it all fly"...in-demand producer Garrett "Jacknife" Lee (R.E.M., Snow Patrol) recorded Neck at his Topanga Canyon studio // Release : Neck of the Woods [...]

You won't find the slightest trace of indie tricks — no fuzzy reverb, glitchy beats or laptop wizardry — on "I Want Us to Be Remembered," the first EP from Los Angeles quartet A House for Lions . "That's not who we are," singer-songwriter Daniel Norman says. "It would come off as false." Instead, Norman's partnership with guitarist Mike Nissen, keyboardist/bassist Eric McCann and drummer Felipe Ceballos favors classic songwriting, with the frontman's crystalline vocals prevailing sweetly over arrangements bearing a faint hint of Southern-fried pop. Think Ryan Adams meets Snow Patrol. [...]

I've been on a Letterman binge lately, staying up most nights to catch his show. NYC Mayor Bloomberg the other night was fun, Kate Hudson a few weeks was suitably strange and the music acts are always fun. Last night self-described 'music supergroup' Tired Pony played an urgent acoustic driven rocker with cool guitar feedback called "Dead American Writers", from the album The Place We Ran From . See the video below. I've heard about them, but haven't paid much attention. I've since learned that Gary Lightbody from Snow Patrol formed the band, along [...]
