YouTube Rodeo: Little Gold's "Mike Swan"

"Mike Swan" by Little Gold
Little Gold knows how you feel. You smoked a little grass, got in a bike accident, some dudes dressed as birds with a van kidnapped you, forced you to party way too much and watch "Howard The Duck" and go to a carnival and eat fried human. Like, they get it, right? Reading your mind, right? But the Brooklyn-based trio fronted by erstwhile Meneguar guitarist Christian DeRoeck has gone a step further: they made a ridiculous video for their awesome song, which is from their terrific sophomore set Weird Freedom , which was released on [...]

Today's Hotness: Little Gold, The Hush Now, Hold Your Horse Is

Today's Hotness: Little Gold, The Hush Now, Hold Your Horse Is >> There are a number of bands right now forcing us to confront the fact that we do in fact like (some) rock music with horns. But we have to say most surprising of the lot is Little Gold 's "Mike Swan." We've written previously about being overjoyed that one former member of Meneguar was doing something that excited us, that member being Brooklyn-based Little Gold 's fronter Christian DeRoeck. Mr. DeRoeck's current rootsier rock act hews most closely to whatever we can refer to as a Meneguar legacy, although Meneguar certainly didn't have [...]

Song Of The Day: Meneguar – "The Temp"

"At a time, when the L.A. scene was full of art-goth-punk pretentiousness, it was really refreshing seeing a band that had no qualms hitting the stage and playing some infectious, intelligent pop-punk."

Today's Hotness: Little Gold, Philistines Jr.

Today's Hotness: Little Gold, Philistines Jr. >> One of the more recent Sound Opinions podcasts discussed bands or artists that had "gone off the rails," which is to say the band or artists changed styles or suddenly produced such terrible work that critics Greg Kot and Jim DeRogatis felt betrayed them. We have a similar disappointment with erstwhile, Brooklyn-based indie punk gargantuans Meneguar . As far as we can tell, the quartet never formally broke up, it just dissolved into other acts. The most notable of these is the new-wave-of-American-psych outfit Woods , whose music simply doesn't connect with us. Meneguar [...]

Clicky Clicky Music Blog's Top Albums 2000-2009

Clicky Clicky Music Blog's Top Albums 2000-2009 The span of years roughly book-ended by the launches of Napster and Spotify -- a decade during which many perpetually proclaimed the album format dead -- was crammed with crates and crates and crates and crates of compelling music. And why wouldn't it be? Ones and zeroes do not obviate humanity's innate need to rock . But that is a subject for another day. Today, as part of Deckfight 's ongoing Albums Of The Decade Blog Tour , we force ourselves to choose the 10 best of the last 10 years. For weeks we've debated how to [...]

Darlings - Yeah I Know - Famous Class Records [Album Review]

Darlings - Yeah I Know - Famous Class Records [Album Review] If you lump Darlings in with the new garage-rock revival I understand, but you're wrong; their riffs are too clean, their style too thoughtful, their lyrics too ... meaningful to fit in with the crowds "doin' the drag" (as it were) along with up-and-comers like Ty Segall, Black Time, Intelligence and several other groups. If there is a trace of garage-rock it doesn't even emerge until "Friends Forever," and that's for a brief moment. Not to mention they play synthesizers, not banned in garage-rock circles but certainly frowned upon when they're pushed this [...]

Thank You For Your Patience

Thank You For Your Patience Mouthbreather Thank You For Your Patience Kiss Of Death Records Release Date: 08.19.08 Mouthbreather is yet another quintet representing for the ever-fertile Richmond, VA punk scene. For a fairly small river city, Richmond shows a diversity in their punk bands that rivals bigger scenes like the East Bay or Austin. Avail , Ann Beretta and Strike Anywhere come to mind, but they are but a few of the bigger names to come out of RVA in recent years. The average outsider would say the aforementioned bands all sound [...]

Today's Hotness: Favours For Sailers, Los Campesinos!, Johnny Foreigner

Favours for Sailors "I Dreamt That I Dreamt You Loved Me"
>>After tips from the sadly defunct Beatcast and Exitfare we downloaded from EMusic Favours For Sailors ' terrific EP Furious Sons . The set was released earlier this month and it totally delivers. Folks are bandying about Pavement comparisons, but we think the London-based foursome hews more closely to the quirky pop sound of Weezer and The Cars . The video above is from Favours For Sailors ' triumphant November 2008 set at New Slang in Kingston, England, and it features what will likely be the act's breakout song, "I [...]

Meneguar "We Own We Sell"
>> We openly admit that we were largely stymied by Meneguar 's most recent release The In Hour , which cast the band's raw indie punk jams in a strange light via uncertain, folksy production (a hilarious comment at the band's MySpace drive-thru reads "I would like to offer to do your next recordings with my cellphone. I guess the sound will be a lot better then [sic] on your current record."). That said, the Brooklyn-based quartet is forever one of our favorites based on the strength of its two prior records, I Was Born [...]

Today's Hotness: Paper Cranes, Meneguar, Psapp

Today's Hotness: Paper Cranes, Meneguar, Psapp >> [Photo: The author, as shot by Watson, Cracow, 1997] In the 10 seconds it took us to rise from bed this morning and place ourselves under the shower head, some wiseguy on morning gabber "The Today Show" said the word "eastern;" we don't know if he was saying "Eastern Europe" or "Middle Eastern" or what. But what we do know is that immediately this Paper Cranes jam started playing in our head, and has been there most of the day. Right now we are attempting to exorcise it by listening to the track.

Meneguar

Meneguar In further proof that Meneguar never sleep, the band release The In Hour on their own Woodsist imprint only a few months after their great offering on Troubleman last year. I've been a fan of the interplay of styles between the Meneguar/Woods/Shepherds contingent and the rough hewn edges of the latter two have certainly bled into the former on this album. Not nearly as ragged as that Tone Banks cassette that appeared here a few months ago, but they've definitely eschewed polish for intensity and immediate emotion. The songs on The In Hour retain the charm [...]

Meneguar - Bury A Flower

Every now and again I'll come across a band that should be huge. Maybe not in the sense of selling out arenas or anything quite that dramatic, but indie huge. Maybe Pavement or Weezer level, or Broken Social Scene or whatever else the kids are listening to these days. Anyway, I digress. [...]

Meneguar - Tone Banks 1

Meneguar - Tone Banks 1 The boys in Meneguar have cooked up a new concept over at their own Fuck It Tapes label. They're recording and releasing the Tone Banks series of cassette releases, a peek into the creative process behind the band. The first in the series captures two sides to Menegar; the first track "Some Downs" starts fairly reminiscent of an album ready track but devolves into a sprawling jam session workout. The flip side doesn't even make an attempt to start so formally. Two songs emerge and disappear inside incomplete ideas and dissonance gouged studio sprawlings. This really splits the difference [...]

| Tracks | Meneguar: The Temp

| Tracks | Meneguar: The Temp Desta vez recuperamos um brilhante tema dos nova-iorquinos Meneguar retirado do álbum I Was Born At Night lançado o ano passado. The Temp é daquelas canções que volta à escola indie-rock de reminiscência punk que marcou os anos 90. Um riff de guitarra irrepreensível e um refrão grandioso em pouco mais de três minutos suficientes para fazer de The Temp uma grande canção. Para quem segue outras bandas como Les Savy Fav, Yo La Tengo ou Pinback, os Meneguar são essenciais. Já poucas bandas criam canções tão genuínas e orelhudas (no bom sentido) como [...]
