So, we are getting tired of all this new music, and starting to listen to some old stuff again. But that doesn't stop me from guiding you through my 50 best records of this year. The sequel, starting with number 40 40. Turner Cody - First Light ( B.Y Records ) Sounds Like: Born too late, but okay, we can still sing along with your (anti)folk songs; Benji Cossa [...]
Anybody who knows me knows that I am a rabid fan of MBAR , a.k.a. Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson . The Portland native, who came to national recognition by way of the New York City music scene and his associations with the NYC bands TV On The Radio & Grizzly Bear , has a distinct sound that is beyond description. His live shows truly must be experienced to be believed. [...]
Selena Salfen Sometimes stuff sits on my shelf for ages before I get around to listening to it, and all I can do is slap myself upside the head for having wasted time that could have been spent with that record. Such is the case with the self-titled debut from Oklahomans The Uglysuit - it was released back in mid-August, which implies that I probably got the promo sometime in early August, and since I only gave it an airing in the last few weeks, that's like two and a half months lost.

Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson ist ein ganz schön langer Name für eine One Man Show. Gar nicht so leicht ihn zu behalten, doch das sollte man. Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson hat im Sommer sein selbstbetiteltes Debüt veröffentlicht. Kyp Malone von TV On The Radio and Daniel Rossen von Grizzly Bear haben ihn bei den Aufnahmen unterstützt, und wie man in hört, ist dieser Mann auch unterstützenswert. "The Debtor" erinnert etwas an Wolf Parade bzw. Frog Eyes und erzählt vom alt werden, obwohl der [...]
Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson with the Castanets ::: Photo By Josh Sometimes when you go to a show, things just never seems to gel. This was one of those nights. Brooklynite Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson was missing his drummer who had a plane ticket accident and mistook 12pm for 12am. Oops. Then in the first song of his set he broke his high E string on his acoustic guitar but he soldiered on. By the end of a difficult set where most people weren't paying attention, he'd switched to an electric guitar and busted two more strings. As [...]
It's been too long my friends, and I'm sorry, to both you the readers and to my always amazing editors. But, over the course of the last few weeks I've been in a bit of music burn out, the type of greying numbness, where nothing new sounds good and I find myself just wallowing in the old favorites. Thus, the ability to post a brand new "Daily Choice" has seemed a distant one at best. Nonetheless, even in times of music darkness, I'm still attending live shows, 'cause there's just about nothing better. So I thought, while I'm struggling out [...]
What's cookin' for this episode of Panther Picks? First, we start with a pinch of Department of Eagles - a band I heard about from the Stranger. I'll go on record right now and say that I think Grizzly Bear is a bit overrated, but DOE is interesting enough to post (and besides, my song's a lot better than "In Ear Park" Stranger). Ok, maybe I'm being too harsh, but I'm sick of hearing Grizzly Bear this, Grizzly Bear that... But do not fret, someone you should definitely pay attention to in this spicy recipe is [...]
I think it's time for an antifolk cover of an anarchopunk song. I think you probably know I'm talking about Jeffrey Lewis covering Crass . It's been said before, but it bears repeating, Crass is all about the lyrics. Dig it. Downloadable: "Banned From The Roxy (Crass Reworking)" (box.net mp3) Myspace page is here .

Hello Seahorse!, the Mexican trio of Burgos, Denise (aka Vanilla Face), and Bonno T, mix a twee sensibility and artsy DIY visual aesthetic with unexpected instrumental interludes (lapping ocean waves, jumbled voices over piano) and spacier, darker, non-twee moments. They have a knack for writing pop songs that hit you immediately. You could think of them as a scaled down Los Campesinos! (note shared exclamation point), an even more scaled down I'm From Barcelona, or, maybe, a Sarah Records band singing in Spanish. (On a track like "Antardecer En Parapent" you'll even hear Stereolab in the vocal patterns.) HS!'s catchiest [...]
Best Bets: Day Show Gothamist House @ The Bell House, 3pm - 8pm Gothamist House has been going strong for a couple days now at the brand new Bell House, but as of yet I have not been able to make it out to Brooklyn for a show. Maybe today's the day that happens unless I happen to hit the River to River show instead. We shall see! Schedule: 3:00pm - The Albertans The Albertans - "Furniture" 3:45pm
CMJ 2008 is my first time actually hitting up the festival which has included such music icons and darlings as Nirvana, Weezer and The Arcade Fire in the past. First up for us was the Lykke Li headliner with Micachu , Friendly Fires and Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson as the openers. TLC was gettin' our happy hour on and talking to the bartender at Home Sweet Home down the street so we missed Micachu (Anyone who was there, do tell.) [...]
Rock on, Gold Dust Woman. CREDIT . Lykke Li/Friendly Fires/Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson Bowery Ballroom Tuesday October 21 Lykke Li is basically Madonna in the "Borderline" video. You can picture her wearing a giant bow and spray-painting Greek columns while some shady fashion photographer leers at her as she sings "If you want to complain/I'm not the complaint department." She has a dookie rope for her kazoos. She can sing and bash a cymbal with a drumstick simultaneously, which is not as easy as [...]

friendly fires were great. lykke li show was the exact same that i saw on monday at music hall. still good.
mp3: lykke li - dance dance dance mp3: miles benjamin anthony robinson - buriedfed lykke li and miles benjamin anthony robinson are at the black cat tonight... quite a combo, huh? i've heard miles' live shows are occasionally hampered by his excessive drunkenness, but seems like it would make them all the more interesting to me. anyway, he sounded great on that daytrotter session a while back, and i'd expect the same tonight. regular readers should already know what to expect from lykke... but this new video for [...]
