Right from the start, you know where you are—the slow building drones, restrained drums, that bass line used by many pre-Britpop Anglophiles. This is shoegaze territory, no doubt about it. As a genre, there hasn't been much of a progression in, say, about 15 years but anyone expecting another Loveless should just cut their losses now and shell out a months rent for tickets to the European MBV reunion tour. Pacific UV, like so many these days, are Portland transplants, but a few listens to "Need" shows that band leader Clay Jordan has taken cues from another early [...]
Pacific UV had a new album released on February 19 of this year and it's a shame I missed the launch. Granted this disc will not be for everyone. It will appeal to people who love Sigur Ros but wish Jonsi sang in English. Fans of minimalism, simple melodies combined with sweeping soundscapes, or songs that seem destined to be the soundtrack to your life, they will all instantly fall in love with this album. From the opening note of Alarmist to the final farewell of Ljiv there is not a moment wasted on the aptly named Pacific UV album, [...]
Good stuff! Wish I could say more. The Shondes The Red Sea is the self-released debut album of Brooklyn's The Shondes . Their press blurb says: "Their songwriting fuses the various musical traditions of feminist punk, classical, Jewish, and queercore..." I don't know what queercore is, but I can tell you that Elijah Oberman totally shreds soundwaves with his violin on "Let's Go," and co-vocalist Louisa Solomon has a voice that [...]
If like me you preferred it when Spiritualized laid off the gospel and stuck with the reverb ('Lazer Guided Melodies' and 'Pure Phase' in other words) then Pacific UV could well be about to brighten up your collection. The bands new album 'Longplay 2' is due to be released at the end of the month and it comes a full 5 years after their debut 'Longplay 1'. There has been significant line up
Loch Lamond er Portlandsveit nokkur sem spilar seiðandi og ljúft þjóðlagapopp stutt af strengjasveit og eftirminnanlegri söngrödd forsöngvarans. Þriðja plata sveitarinnar Paper The Walls er nú fáanleg og á hún klárlega tilverurétt í plötusafni allra alvöru tónlistarunnenda. Meðfylgjandi er ansi vænt og bragðgott smakk.

Download: Pacific UV—"50s" MP3 Former Athenians, current Portlandians (is that what they are called?), Pacific UV make a triumphant return with their new EP (appropriately titled EP ) of reverb-heavy deliciousness. Like the bastard spawn of Phil Spector and Spiritualized, Pacific UV put out a record in 2003 that, um, I played drums and keyboards on. So I guess I'm biased here. Hey! I had nothing to do with this track, which is a damned shame, really, as it might just be one of the best the band has ever [...]

Dunno much about Pacific UV 's body of work . . . I've only heard this one song, "50s," off their EP on the WARM label. But I dig it. Kind of like 90s Neil Young only totally not like that. Huh? Pacific UV—50s .
The Lemonheads / The Lemonheads ( Vagrant ) Convention usually dictates that comeback albums are low-key, acoustic affairs while the artist feels out where they and the current music scene are, respective to one another. Evan Dando already did that with 2004's Baby, I'm Bored - released under his own name - so when he decided to dust off the old Lemonheads name, it was with an ear to plugging in and turning up. Recruiting the rhythm section from Australian [...]
