Clap Your Hands Say Yeah – Hysterical (Self-Release) Quem disse que quatro anos de descanso não resultam em um bom trabalho? Hysterical , lançamento do Clap Your Hands Say Yeah , desfaz o mal entendido do irregular Some Loud Thunder , de 2007, trazendo 12 composições que exploram um som acessível de transições suaves entre as músicas. Same Mistake soa fantástica abrindo o álbum: ritmo acelerado, vocal preguiçoso e guitarras atmosféricas. Faixa à moda antiga e tudo que os fãs esperavam há tempos. A elegância fica por conta [...]
Wilco @ Jazz Fest 2011 - photo by Justin Ward As fall comes into full swing this week, we're getting a really nice mix of interesting shows in NYC with some especially noteworthy bands in the indie rock and folk realms. Starting with the more eccentric artists, there's tUnE-YaRds @ Le Poisson Rouge (tonight), Cymbals Eat Guitars @ Music Hall of Williamsburg (Wed), the triumphant return of the Rapture @ Webster Hall (Thurs), and Superhuman Happiness doing two nights at Zebulon in Williamsburg (Fri-Sat). For something eclectic but a [...]
To celebrate today’s crop of releases, here are new mp3s from Meg Baird, Boots Electric, Born Gold, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Dancing With Paris, the Go Round, Ivy, Kaura, Jens Lekman, Chris Letcher, Megafaun, Miguel Migs, Nurses, Southerly, Sun Wizard, Thrice and Waters. Also, vote for your favorite of today’s new releases.
A bit of a slow release week, but let's be honest, we’re still listening to all the good stuff that dropped last Tuesday. The albums you need to know about for September 20th include a young trio taking a slightly different direction on their second effort, former Justin Vernon bandmates learning to hone their own brand of freak folk, and a band finally returning from a long hiatus and back to its roots. Same Mistake - Clap Your Hands Say Yeah [...]
This week may not be the powerhouse release of the season like last week. But you can't have those twice in the same season... it's just math. All that being said, there is a lot of great stuff out today. For example, local heroes Andrew Jackson Jihad have an album about knife men out so that is pretty cool. In addition to that wonderful (probably) album , as you can see below, there are a ton of other good ones too. Just take your time and look at all of them... with your ears. Then I want [...]

Bon Iver's Justin Vernon may no longer with the band, but Megafaun still continue to hold their own with their 4th full length LP, the self titled album, Megafaun. Take a listen to the full new album courtesy of Rolling Stone after the jump. Megafaun will hit stores on September 20th. Enjoy!

Later this month, folk-rock stompers Megafaun release their self-titled third album, but you don't have to wait till then to hear one of the best cuts from the album: It's called "Get Right" and it's a monster eight-minute jam that packs about everything you can like about this band into one song. You can pretty much hear the beards and the flannel, amidst the crashing, entwined guitar breakdowns that make the second half sound like an alien craft landing in a cornfield. Listen below. Megafaun is due out on Sept. 20. [...]
This week's Fresh Tracks features some sah-weet new advanced singles from upcoming albums due out this month, plus the freshest singles were liking the most right now.

. . . The Submarines - "Shoelaces" [mp3] The Submarines remind me of what Matt and Kim would be like if they weren't so preoccupied by pretending to be cool or Yacht if they weren't trying to prove how "completely scene" they are. This song is perfect for anyone wanting to deal with a break-up [...]
It is true to say that our first visit to the End of the Road Festival last year was without doubt the best music event (bar SxSW) we had ever attended. A superb line-up, brilliant layout, and festival goers who were there for the music rather than the 'experience' ensured three days of superb entertainment. It meant we bought tickets immediately they went on sale for 2011, before we knew the line-up, before we'd even washed the dust off from 2010, and waited impatiently for September to come around again. Granted, for us the line-up this [...]
Megafaun have become a band that I look forward to. They're a constant. Whether it's a new record, a show within driving distance or mp3s of one of their gigs, they're always on my radar. They magically shift shapes musically (say that three times fast) and have an uncanny ability to create delicate and beautiful harmonies. There's a tidal wave of buzz building behind their self titled record ( out on Hometapes 9/20 ) and I've read a lot of chatter about it channeling the Grateful Dead. That shouldn't be anything new to Megafaun fans, but if [...]

Tweet Since it's Megafaun I'm willing to just skip over how much this song sounds like Neil Young's " Cortez The Killer. " Former/occasional Justin Vernon bandmates continue pushing their sound forward and making enjoyable music. Their self-titled album will be out in three weeks and I find myself wondering how much the rest of the tracks on it will reflect this obvious shedding-of-their-roots past. I've always embraced the bluegrass-tinged passive folk sound that we've come to know as "Megafaun" so on [...]
Today Barry-Sean and I head off, pop up tents in tow, to the marvellous End of the Road festival in lovely Dorset. Once again sold out, last year's inaugural trip turned into the best festival visit we've ever had, and we're looking forward to more of the same over the next few days. Even the weather forecast is good! Once again we have a huge number of superb bands scheduled to play and to follow our free Truck Festival Mix (RiP) and our Wilderness Festival Mix , here's the third and final instalment - [...]
[photos by Amanda Hatfield ] This Spring, we were fortunate to catch Megafaun four times in a span of less than three weeks. The final performance was their opening set for Sharon Van Etten at Music Hall in April. The set featured several new numbers, and now four months down the road the band is poised to release their new album (self-titled) on Hometapes Records on September 20, 2011. The band will also launch tours in September through Europe and the US. The local dates [...]
Conhecidos como ex-membros da primeira banda de Justin Vernon , e companheiros do frontman do Bon Iver no Gayngs , o trio de barbudos Megafaun lança agora seu quarto álbum em quatro anos de carreira. O disco, que recebeu o título de Megafaun , foi gravado nos estúdios de Vernon em Eau Claire, Wisconsin, e acaba de ser disponibilizado para audição através do site holandês 3voor12 . É um belíssimo exemplar do gênero da banda, o Freak-folk. O folk está representado pelas harmonias tranquilas, vocais relaxantes e instrumentação [...]
Tweet Conrad Plymouth just put out an EP, "Comrade Plymouth," made up of B-sides from the upcoming full-length full-band album which is yet to have a title. With the promise of a more rounded sound in the works I'm enjoying this all the more. I find Christopher Porterfield to be one of the stronger solo performers around and would be just as satisfied if this were the finished product. "I Am Not Waiting Anymore," the opening track off of the EP, [...]
