The attack on Pearl Harbor (called Hawaii Operation or Operation AI by the Japanese Imperial General Headquarters ( Operation Z in planning) and the Battle of Pearl Harbor ) was a surprise military strike conducted by the Imperial Japanese Navy against the United States naval base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, on the morning of December 7, 1941 (December 8 in Japan). The attack was intended as a preventive action in order to keep the U.S. Pacific Fleet from interfering with military actions the Empire of Japan was planning in Southeast Asia against [...]
Mp3: Puro Instinct - Stilyag(ft.Ariel Pink) Mp3: Puro Instinct - I've Got Some Happiness Mp3: Puro Instinct - Luv Goon
I've already posted one cut from Puro Instinct 's upcoming Headbangers in Ecstasy . Here's another. It's called "Silky Eyes" and it comes courtesy of Gorilla vs. Bear . Just like the title would suggest, it's a silky, sultry tune that's filled with jangling guitars, cooing vocals and pillowy keyboard pads, and sounds like this aural equivalent of the amazing album cover . These are some seriously smooth tones, paired with the laziest vocal delivery you'll ever hear. Your Valentine's Day jam has arrived. [...]
Often I've gotten in the car this year and driven, just so I could listen to music. There's something about blurred motion passing all around you that amplifies the effect. I have discovered songs from dear friends, seen music left on shelves and delivered from strangers. New music has come to me while showering, when [...]

When I interviewed Puro Instinct 's Skylar Kaplan a few months ago , she said that the band had recorded a track with Ariel Pink called "Stilyagi." Soon after, when I saw the band in concert, I heard the song in live form. Now, it's finally coming out as a single via Mexican Summer . Download the song below, and head to Exclaim! to read my article about the band's upcoming LP, Headbangers in Ecstasy . If you like jangle-y dream pop bands like [...]
Today marks the 69th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor. This video of several survivors returning to tell their story and pay their respects to their lost brethren is touching, to say the least. The Seattle Times posted some striking photographs of the attack that day.
Mexican Summer has announced the first single from Headbangers in Ecstasy , the forthcoming full-length from L.A.'s Puro Instinct . Fleetwood Mac-meets-Soviet-pop vibes abound on Stilyagi , which features Puro's L.A. homie / tourmate / 73 coverboy Ariel Pink contributing "ambient rainclouds, drum machines and other sonic sparkles," and will definitely be making an appearance on our favorite songs of 2010 list. The 73 single is available now on gold vinyl with metallic gold sleeve from Mexican Summer . Headbangers [...]

Zwei Bands sorgen mit verwaschenem TräumerPop für den perfekten Soundtrack zum Tanken letzter Sonnenwärme und wehmütigen Schwelgen in spätsommerlicher Nostalgie. Die Geschwister Piper & Skylar aus L.A. haben eben mal den Bandnamen gewechselt, weil sie dachten, dass sie unter Pearl Harbor eh niemand kennt. Weit gefehlt, denn letzten Sommer waren sie nicht nur auf Kollege Menzls Hype-Radar aufgetaucht . Gitarristin Skylar ist so jung, dass das letzte Konzert abgesagt wurde, als rauskam, dass sie noch nicht mal reif für den Führerschein wäre (- und das, obwohl sie an [...]
Bill Baird treats his fans well. He maintains a dedicated following that, if his new album Loveshines But The Moon Is Shining Too is any indication, should increase exponentially shortly. Baird appears quite kind to fans as well, as his tireless work ethic and dedication caught my attention in 2008, when he released two full-lengths [...]

While Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti 's latest effort Before Today might not have necessarily caught out ears , the fact remains the LA based chill wavers remain one hot buzz band. So much so that they've just added another leg to they're already announced summer/fall North American tour and it includes an opening stint for none other than fellow psychedelic freaks The Flaming Lips. The newest leg of dates commence following Ariel Pink's July - early August trek through America and a subsequent month long break. Currently, a September 4th appearance at the Los [...]
Het lijkt zo makkelijk, de ontspannen sfeer van de zomervakantie, zon en strand te vangen in muziek. Maar met een vlindernetje kom je niet ver. Behalve warmte moet de muziek ook vrijheid, nonchalance en een beetje romantiek uitstralen. Het is dan ook niet verwonderlijk dat de bands in het voor de gelegenheid verzonnen genre new surf zich doorgaans bedienen van rommelige lo-fi punk of wave, vrolijke melodieën, soepele refreintjes en teksten opgetekend uit hitsige tienersmoeltjes. De band waar ik in de lente van 2009 al over schreef - Wavves - komt op het juiste [...]
California Shakedown comes from a new Pearl Harbor / Puro Instinct EP simply titled Puro Instinct . This track is an oh so dreamily seductive slice of icy pop, and has effortlessly wrapped MM around its little finger. We suspect the other three tracks on the EP are as equally likely to play the femme fatale and leave you a quivering jelly in no time at all. You have been warned! It is out next month on vinyl via Gloriette Records or you can buy the [...]
![[MP3] Puro Instinct: "California Shakedown" / "I've Got Some Happiness (Leland)"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2618376_lg.jpg)
L.A. lo-fi pop group Pearl Harbor has decided to now go by the name Puro Instinct, maybe for fear of being labeled with bad taste? I don't know, but since their last awesome single, "Luv Goon," they have recorded an EP and set up a Bandcamp page . The Puro Instinct EP features four tracks including the mellow "California Shakedown" and great closer "I've Got Some Happiness (Leland)." You can stream or buy the EP at their Bandcamp page . Puro Instinct – "California Shakedown" [MP3] Puro [...]
I found out last week that one of our favorite labels Mexican Summer has now decided to start repressing all of their vinyl (basically). You can read that article here . Here is a snippet from the article (taken out of context) For the record, none of us think it's bad to repress a record - in fact, we're thrilled that there's enough demand to warrant them. Hearing about stuff like eBay prices is just ridiculous and certainly not a trend we wish to perpetuate. There is a [...]
