Monday Music’s the one post where Some Of It Was True! drops its London-only rule. Sonny Low - I'll Be Waiting The single best thing I can say about this gentle soul song is the following: before listening to it, I was feeling glum, useless and a bit lonely. By the end, I felt like hugging myself, phoning my best friend and writing down all my plans. From adjectives to verbs, and all because of an amazing new Belfast talent and his [...]
Marc Merza y Cory Siegler son el comodín de todo playlist romántico: un dúo de rock pop (más pop que rock) que gusta de hacer todo material físico por cuenta propia, tal vez así conservando lo majestuoso de su sonido abrigador (casi dando un trato cara a cara con el escucha). No hace falta decir que me enamoré de ellos desde hace dos años, cuando de la mejor manera nos dejaron usar su canción " Slow Bones " para nuestro compilado, y ya ni qué decir sobre el EP y single en CD que nos enviaron. Pero no sólo eso. [...]
Lizard Kisses , duo pop folk originaire de Brooklyn, nous propose avec leur single The Storm une pop largement inspirée des années sixties à la fois mélodramatique et rêveuse, bien loin de l'idée que l'on pourrait se faire d'un bisou de lézard. Ce morceau est extrait de Loving Creatures , un EP inspiré et conçu lors de la tempête Hurricane qui frappait la Big Apple l'automne dernier. Pour poursuivre cette ballade pop folk, on vous met à disposition l'EP en question : [...]
Facebook / lizardkisses.tumblr.com Another band returning to this blog after an extended break are Brooklyn duo Lizard Kisses , a band I fell for in the middle of 2011 with a couple of soft, dreamy EP's and a gorgeous mini album Tiny Island Teeth... The band return to my radar with a soon to be released four track limited 3" CD via WeePop . With stronger melody and production in evidence the band still retain their soothing, comforting aesthetic with simple, melancholic melodies [...]
We found this lo-fi, self produced music video for Lizard Kisses ' "Close" (off their forthcoming album) in our Open Blog and were intrigued by it. On Tuesday September 18th, the band will be performing in at Blue Warbler House in Brooklyn alongside best buds Mutual Benefit and Kevin Greenspon. It will be a small intimate show with accompanying projections. - (as posted in The Deli's Open Blog - post your band's entries, videos, and Mp3s here [...]
Lizard Kisses is a Brooklyn-based duo that creates light, serene music that reflects the perfect Sunday morning. You know this: you're still in bed, tangled up in your crisp linens, with rays of sunlight peering into your room. Their latest single, "To Recapture," is a sweet, harmonious tune that's perfect for this setting. Listen and download below, and check out their Bandcamp for more. Lizard Kisses - "To Recapture"
I just received a lovely test pressing of Lizard Kisses previous single ‘ Water Tap ’ in the post (which came on clear vinyl in a hand painted sleeve… which is quite a nice piece of eye + ear candy), around the same time as this brand new track of theirs was released on a massive 100 track compilation from the folks over at Beko . I haven’t downloaded the full 100 track compilation (as I don’t really have the time available right now to responsibly consume 100 more tracks in my iTunes), so I can only [...]
I think you'll notice right away that our March mix is a very different beast from the February mix. For example, we open this one with the sultry, shimmering new single from Beach House, whereas last month's mix opened with an upbeat, tropical-island inspired B.I.G. remix. It's indicative of the overall mood of this mix which I'd describe as cozier, more laid back, more introspective, and even a little sexier than it's predecessor. You could float through the clouds on the back of Lemonade's single. The Evy Jane single, like everything else I've heard from the duo, is irresistible. And [...]
This is just one cover, with each side individually hand-crafted by both Lizard Kisses and My Friend Wallis , respectively. They spent months shipping these covers back and forth from New York to Vancouver, and back again. There are 35 of them, just as beautiful and collaged, that you can go look at over here . These bands, who have seemed like some strange pair of sisters since the first time I heard each of them, have found one another, and teamed up to release a 7” split. Water Tap by [...]
Lizard Kisses // “Water Tap” It’s been a while since we last heard from Lizzard Kisses . But knowing Marc and Cory, they are never ones to have much idle time. They are always toiling away on something creative and their latest split 7” with My Friend Wallis is no different. I’ll let the band explain to you what makes this particular release so special: Both bands made collages for their respective sides of the 7”, making each one unique and one of a kind. You can [...]
I really admire the creativity that’s been going into the last couple Lizard Kisses releases (remember their CD that could be played on a record player ?). Well, they are back at it again, this time with a split 7” with Canadians My Friend Wallis . “Both bands made collages for their respective sides of the 7”, making each one unique and one of a kind. You can view all 35 individual record sleeves here . The clear lathe cut records were hand-pressed to a numbered edition of 35 and include typed inserts [...]
Lizard Kisses - Pinch I just remembered that I still needed to listen to the newest Lizard Kisses album. Cory and Marc had sent me an email about it right when I was packing up my stuff and moving to England… and then I forgot about it. Until now. If you’re familiar with Lizard Kisses, then you should already know to expect some gorgeously chilled out songs, perfect for lazing around on a lazy Sunday. Or a lazy any day, if you’re unemployed such [...]
Lizard Kisses Pinch This week, Brooklyn’s Lizard Kisses released their EP Tiny Island Teeth . Really beautiful work with guest appearances by Mutual Benefit and Sea Oleena . You can hear the detail and care they put into every chord they play and every note they sing. Recorded on the hottest day of the year, it’s funny, even the eerie creaky notes at the end (antique [...]
Ayer escuchaba esta misma canción en uno más de mis días "no tan buena onda" que propició se me llenara la cabezota de sad stuff para hablar acerca de " Swell (with Sea Oleeana) ". Afortunados ustedes que no tuvieron que leer una serie de frases sentimentalistas y cuestionamientos existenciales gracias a que me quedé dormido. ¡Por favor, eso nunca para una entrada! En cambio, hoy, aprovechando que de nuevo todo parece estar donde debería estar, Lizard Kisses me viste diferente para una tarde plena en sol y buenos ratos; ratos que son eternos, al igual [...]
Lizard Kisses New EP Tiny Island Teeth in 58 Seconds Haha. Rad. Can’t wait to hear the entire thing. Thanks for sharing. lizardkisses : SNEAK PREVIEW OF TINY ISLAND TEETH!! Our entire EP in 58 seconds. This is our new EP being sped up on a CD player. You’ll have to wait until September to hear the real thing.
lizardkisses.tumblr.com/ / lizardkisses.bandcamp.com/ Whilst I was searching for a nice video to accompany the Seapony post of a few days back I came across the vimeo site for Future Sweden , it seems we share similar taste in music because I was taken aback by a few of the bands I'd not heard before. Starting with Lizard Kisses , a Brooklyn based acoustic duo (Cory Siegler and Marc Merza) whose lo-fi music is laid-back, calming and utterly, utterly beautiful. There a couple of EP's worth of tracks to digest, I'll [...]
On Friday the 13th, I got my hands on a copy of the great compilation released by Cactus-Mouth, Tears on My Pillow: Part II. It features our longtime favorites, School Knights, taking on Del Shannon's 'Runaway', sounding as tight and as reverberated as ever. They can pretty much do no wrong. One of our favorite [...]
I already mentioned how lovely Lizard Kisses latest EP was in a previous post , so this post is just to say that I just received their cool duel use CD in the post today. As the video above demonstrates (and if that above video is not playing for you, watch it here )… there is a track on the reverse of the disc that you can play on your record player. How cool is that?
