Lovely Hearts Club Presents: Holy Names - The American Crowbar Case by Paper Garden Records Holy Names is the moniker of Seattle based maestro Andy Vaughan and his coterie. The former, of veteran LHC troupe Mighty Tiger , stakes his crisp vocals into the group's rich, multi-instrumental parlor pop like a tattered black flag. Holy Names' Perpetual Beginner is an astral deviation from today's standards, pulling taught the tightrope between space-rock and freak-folk. An apropos [...]
The Blogophilia repost project continues... We've been busy with a lot of good submissions, and that's a good thing. It's time to take a breather. Today, we move forward with our goal of re-posting past volumes of Blogophilia due to demand. Remember, we're doing this all the way to volume 22, and then phhffttt! We're stopping there. Volumes 23-28 are currently active (zip format only for volumes 23-27), and we're making re-posted volumes available for about a week. Get 'em while you can. Blogophilia 15 [...]
Lovely Hearts Club presents: Tea Cozies - Dead Man's Sister We first heard about Seattle's TEA COZIES from Mighty Tiger and became instant fans!

Bridges & Blinking Lights - Denton, Texas rock outfit Bridges & Blinding Lights are a difficult bunch to pin down stylistically, but of course that's part of what makes them fun. I'd say "Southern shoegaze indie rock," but there's such a wealth of influences at play here it's impossible to find the perfect descriptor. So while comparisons escape me, I'll just say that you should check out the band's sophomore effort, Heroes, Guns & Snakes as soon as possible. Behind raspy-voiced singer/songwriter Jake Wilganowski, the quartet have [...]
Other than offering a lineup featuring SAADI, Peasant, Emanuel and the Fear, Mighty Tiger, and The Loom at their SXSW day party, Paper Garden Records wants you to bask in the triumph of winning your very own pool.

Less talk, more tunes: Thunder Power "Heartifact" from the Hearts Intersect EP (to be released on 3/2) [ download ] [...]

New Album, Western Theater, + Limited Edition 7” Vinyl for ‘33 1/3’ with B-side remix from Big Spider’s Back – Available March 9th + West Coast Tour with Grand Hallway! **"There's obviously something Sufjan Stevens-y about Mighty Tiger: the voices raised in chorus, the ornate instrumentation, the bold fearlessness of taking masculine vocals up to the higher
Here we go again... I'm a bit late with TTYN this week thanks to connectivity issues, but here we are finally with this week's post. Before I let you go download just a quick rant. I was reading an article about Milli Vanilli and how it's been 20 years since they won the Grammy, lost the Grammy, lost their career, and then were essentially exiled from music. What's interesting to consider is that if they were around now, would anyone even care that they didn't sing those songs? The domination [...]
Great things happen when you least expect it. For example, when we began piece together this week's edition of the Friday Mixtape, we never thought it would turn out to be one of the best ever. Sure, we assumed this week's mix, which features the best new singles, remixes, covers, and mp3s from some up-and-comers you just might want to check out, would be good. But this good? Nah! Enjoy! NEW Singles: "Let’s Go Fucking Mental" by The Brian Jonestown Massacre "Home" [...]

Enligt den kinesiska zodiaken så är tigern ett av de vackraste djuren på denna planet och dessutom fruktad av allt och alla. Det råkar även vara så att 2010 är tigerns år, enligt Kina.

Första låten att släppas från plattan heter 33 1/3 och här har ni den Mighty Tiger - 33 [...]
