"Sleepy Song" We told you previously about Sundown , a new project from Kansas City-to-Brooklyn-to-Columbus psych-folkie TK Webb featuring Dustin White (Moons/George Martin of Times New Viking), Grant Driskell (TY Eye) and Blake Pfister (Moon High, TV Eye). Last weekend at Independents' Day the band released its debut EP, Mansion Burning, on cassette. You can grab it at Lost Weekend Records or digitally . This video for "Sleepy Song" comes from that Ind. Day set, courtesy of Scott Johnson. There's no droning harmonica like the EP version of the tune, and it's [...]
MP3: Moon High - Autumn Leaves Despite this track's autumnal title, I recently described Moon High's new album, Six Suns , as a "summer record, but not in the typical sense. This isn't cruising-with-the-top-down music. It's a record to soundtrack a hot day spent alternating between sun and shade." A little Googling revealed I'm not the only one getting warm, summery vibes. Deville called it "natural and warm," and 614 called it "the perfect wandering journey for the duration of a hazy summer afternoon." [...]
MP3: Time and Temperature - I Know the Caves are Deep Val Glenn, aka Time and Temperature , quietly released an EP/mini-album called Cream of the Low Tide last week, and it's aptly titled - Glenn's creamy guitar tones accompanying her gorgeous, lilting voice. David Fowler of Moon High recorded the songs, and he kept things nice and simple even as Glenn got a little help from her friends on strings, percussion, lap steel, glockenspiel, flute, etc. Highly recommended, especially on a gray day like today. As far as [...]
MP3: Moon High - Smoke Before My Eyes I got a copy of Moon High 's Smoke Before My Eyes seven-inch recently, and it has some of the best artwork I've seen this year. Sweet screenprinted sleeves, orange vinyl. Very nice. I think it sold out online pretty quickly, but it's possible one of the local record shops still has one or two. The band is looking to do a second run with Akron's Smoke Signals , so if/when they do, it's worth your $. Oh, Moon [...]
MP3: Vetiver - Everyday We've mentioned the Ohio Winter Folk Festival a few times in the past couple weeks. With Sub Pop's Vetiver and Columbus bands like the Black Swans , Super Desserts and Moon High , plus Athens' Adam Torres (ex-Southeast Engine), it promises to be a pretty great show. Before Saturday's show at the historic Stuart's Opera House in Nelsonville, Ohio, there's also a Music Swap Meet and DIY Art Fair (1 pm). We've got a pair to tickets to give [...]
MP3: Moon High - Smoke Before My Eyes The music of mellow Columbus folksters Moon High is as warm and peaceful as those glowing orbs the band brings along to their shows. (And any extra warmth will be welcome on Friday night...) This new track follows in the same mold as Moon High's self-titled debut , but more layered/textured, more prominent female harmony, etc. Good stuff. "Smoke Before My Eyes" and another track, "On and On," will be on a new 73 due out in the coming months from Akron's [...]
The Flaming Lips@LC Oh hey, remember this thingie? I know, it's been a minute. Don't wanna hear it. I bet you can only imagine that a ton of cool shit has happened since we last got up. For example, a weekend camping excursion with a bunch of dudes, guns and fireworks( in the streets ) O.K. enough will the small talk. Oh man where do I even start, the older I get the less I remember. In this issue of "How long is Robert Duffy gonna keep letting that jackass write this crap", I [...]
(Late post of last week's show...) I don't pretend to be a connoisseur of the Columbus hip-hop scene. In fact, my knowledge pretty much ends with a passing familiarity of the Weightless Recordings roster and Wes Flexner's entertaining ramblings on local music blog Donewaiting.com. So I can't really compare Envelope 's performance for Donewaiting's six-year anniversary show at Skully's last weekend with other hometown rappers' performances. But man does this guy put on a great show. First off, it's refreshing to see someone put so much time and energy into an actual stage [...]

(Florence and the Machine) While looking back at 2008's year in music, I decided that for the first time I didn't want to make a list of just albums. Now that most of the money I spend on music is either via vinyl or mp3s, it didn't make sense to keep it that limited. So far that reason, I've mixed up albums, singles and live performances into one list. Equal ranking, no handicaps. Another first in this list is the addition of a lot of Columbus music to my overall picks. Previous years there might have [...]
You gotta hand it to the folks at Apple. They're pretty good at finding just the right songs to soundtrack all those boldly colored iPod TV ads. The most recent commercial for the Nano is no exception. While watching those new gadgets bleed their vivacious colors, you'll hear Caroline Polachek of the band Chairlift singing about handstand attempts over the bounciest bass line allowed by law. The song is called "Bruises," and it's playful, catchy, hummable, vaguely familiar--all the things Apple is going for in hopes that those Nanos will fly off the shelves, economic crisis be damned.

Best Columbus albums 2008
Since I already gave away that Miranda Sound's self-titled record is my favorite of Columbus album of 2008, I figured I should post all top ten. So here they are, though after the top three the order itself doesn't mean a whole lot--some of these will switch spots with others, depending on the week, day or whatever mood I'm in. The point is, these are all great records. 2008 was a good year for Columbus music. (Links go to previous reviews.) 1. Miranda Sound - Miranda Sound 2. Times New Viking - [...]

Our Cat Philip, The Damn Yous, Moon High
We're going to start doing more local album/single reviews in The Other Paper. They'll usually be shorter than the regular 400-wordish reviews, but it should still give a good overview. You can find this week's full installment here , and here's just my two below, plus a short show preview I wrote for the Moon High show at Carabar on Saturday. I'll unfortunately be out of town for it, but you should go. Our Cat Philip - Apart of Someone I didn't know much about Our Cat Philip until I [...]
Moon High
MP3 : Lying Here, Dying Here by Moon High Moon High , why were you hiding from me? I had seen the name listed on a few shows recently but I hadn't really been paying attention. But all that is about to change. They first caught my attention this weekend at the merch booth. Their lovingly crafted packaging of the album seemed like it took an hour just to put one together: a sewn slipcase, pins, screenprinting, it blew my mind. This CD is individually numbered and they made 100 of them. [...]
