Eins og glöggir lesendur bloggsins hafa eflaust tekið eftir hefur eitthvað lítið farið fyrir skrifum og tónlistarumfjöllun hér. Þetta á sér allt eðlilegar skýringar auðvitað. Í fyrsta lagi er það að sjálfsögðu gamla góða letin, nema hvað. Í öðru lagi er það endurlífgun Rjómans sem ég hef verið að vinna að í samvinnu við hann Samúel samverkamann minn. Í þriðja lagi er það Twitter en þar hef ég verið að "tvíta" bæði fyrir sjálfan mig og einnig fyrir hönd Rjómans . Á Twitter hef ég verið að "tvíta" um og vísa í lifandi [...]

Saturday night was probably not the most enjoyable evening on which to catch a show, as it was freezing cold here in Austin, but many brave souls opted to push through the wintry weather in pursuit of a good evening of music. Those in attendance were able to catch Dawes, Other Lives and Delta Spirit honing their skills on stage. Here are our thoughts on the evening. Opening act Dawes was definitely a subdued set to open the evening, as their blend of Souther [...]

The 2nd Annual Norman Music Festival is fast approaching (April 25th) and the the price is still right (Free) . In my opinion last year's festival was a smashing success and the way things are shaping up, this year is all but guaranteed to fall in line. The lineup isn't complete just yet, but we will continue to update this post as new performers are announced. I wasn't going to say a lot about the performers but I think I will at least say a little bit about a [...]
![Other Lives - the first big surprise of 2009. [Album Review, SXSW 2009]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/1539883_lg.jpg)
Other Lives is the name of an audio drama based on the television series Doctor Who. Not sure if the band from Stillwater, Oklahoma had the BBC show in mind when coming up with names, but I'm guessing they had Radiohead's Hail To The Thief playing when composing the tracks on their soon to be released debut album on the ATO imprint TBD Records. By the way, this is the same ATO that released Radiohead's 2007 classic In Rainbows . The influence is rather clear in my opinion, although the band also shares a number of similarities [...]
-- "We are beautiful, we are doomed." That's the title of one of Los Campesinos! ' two albums released in 2008, and it's also a fitting description of the band's show with Titus Andronicus at the Wexner Center last Wednesday. Titus Andronicus has no qualms airing their grievances in a tortured, messy way, thrashing around the stage with the punk vigor and reckless abandon that can only come from New Jersey youth. And boy did they look straight outta study hall. Or, probably more accurately, detention. They're definitely too young to be singing "I don't [...]

Photographs by Jennifer Picard . It had been a long time since I'd been at the Media Club in Vancouver. So long, in fact, that it was almost unrecognizable. They've renovated the space to make it more conducive to live music, including the loss of tables and booths, and the addition of mirrors. The result is a space that feels remarkably roomier. Other Lives, of Springwater, Oklahoma, who has existed in one form or another since 2004, took the stage just after 9pm on Saturday, February 7 to a full house. The crowd, [...]

Delta Spirit ::: Photo by Josh If there was any doubt in my mind that a good festival showing for a fairly new band would garner a nearly capacity crowd at the nearest large city 7 months later, it was laid to rest last Friday when the Delta Spirit rolled through town on their first headlining tour to the Tractor Tavern. As I arrived the opening band Dawes was just finishing up to an already full venue and I felt lucky to be let in. Tour-mates Other Lives first full length won't [...]

Took my first ever trip to SF's famous Bottom Of The Hill concert house/club last night. I say house only because it's basically a converted house. Or at least that's how I saw it. Lately I've been seeing things in a generally weird way. Anyway, aside from that the show rocked. Openers Dawes ( myspace.com/dawestheband ) and Other Lives ( myspace.com/otherlives ) provided two nice sets before Delta Spirit came on. My one complaint is that Other Lives didn't have their cello player turned up enough or something because the poor woman sat in the corner [...]
