2011 started a new decade with a bang. The year saw tragedies strike major populations, dictators overthrown, "occupy" redefined, and the casually pepper spray everything cop . As far as music goes, a lot happened too - pop became even more influenced by electronic, helping Adele sound that much better than her Top 40 contemporaries. Dubstep found itself at a heavy fork in the road, one side running all the obnoxious frat parties and the other (perhaps humorously) aiming straight for your heart. Hip-hop became overrun by Tumblr and Twitter personalities pushing "SWAG" into the vocabulary. Indie rock still [...]

I promised the staff I would not go all Masterpiece Theater with this intro, so I'll be brief. Our Annual Report has reached its halfway point with our Top 50 Songs of the Year. The many flags of our staff are hoisted high - and we couldn't be happier with what we have. From Cults' very first song to Tom Waits' thousandth song, we put up the tracks that left us with more thoughts, feelings, and impressions than any other. We think we done good. But just to make sure the world still spins on its [...]

Oceans Never Listen
Tuesday night at the Oxford Art Factory I dipped my toe into the pool of American music. It felt so good I soon dived all the way in. Kurt Vile and his Violators practice a music that is timeless and classic. American beauty. Guitars ring and chime, vocals drift on the air. Music that is effortlessly good and sublimely graceful. It can also pack a punch. Vile is currently touring Australia for the first time. By all accounts he is impressing and delighting all who see him. By my first hand account last night [...]

50 The notion of compiling a "50 Best Songs of the Year" list is preposterous. In addition to the absurd presumption that songs across genres can be objectively compared in some meaningful way, such a list ignores the fact that one's experience of a song is entirely situational, as dependent on one's mood and temperament as on any musical detail. Indeed, a list of this type is bound to almost destined to disappoint, confuse, or perhaps even enrage the reader. And yet we worked our asses off on this one. Staffer Peter Lillis, co-editor [...]

Philly singer-songwriter delivers just continuation of breakthrough full-length. Joining the best-aged staples of heartland rock with smoky production, Philly singer-songwriter Kurt Vile's most recent full-length, Smoke Ring for My Halo, justly garnered much critical acclaim not long after its March release. Thankfully, his latest showing, the 30-minute So Outta Reach EP, is chockfull of everything that made that album so special: nimble guitar picking, characteristically passive lyrics ("Life's a while"), warmly mumbled vocals, and enveloping atmospherics. Highlight "The Creature" is unmistakably Vile, which...

Song, by Toad
Man, last night was nice. Really, really nice. Even though we had to do a big shop at the supermarket so we can feed my bloody mother when she visits this weekend, and even though we spent ages emptying our overflowing recycling bins. Even though Mrs. Toad spent a long time on the phone counselling one of her best friends. It was nice, because after all this, we opened a bottle of wine and sat in the living room, played records and just chattered about fuck all for about three hours. Mrs. Toad is away a [...]

Of all the tasks assigned to the music critic, evaluating a cover song may be the most difficult. The grade bestowed upon any re-make depends not just on the quality of the performance, but also on the grader's relationship to the original song, not to mention his relationship to that relationship (Do you love covers of songs you hate? Do you hate covers of songs you love?). As such, there is bound to be disagreement about a list like this. Some will wonder why I included no covers from the Nirvana or U2 tribute albums that were released this year; [...]
