"Get ready and I'm on my way," promises the lyrics of NO 's newest single, "What's Your Name." It works on two levels, a lyric truth and the current state of affairs for one of the most promising unsigned American rock bands. Somewhere between the National and Pela , NO are product of the people who were left to grow up in this fake empire. The bands growing up in the ashes of this system won't have the luxuries of the ones who rode the horse down. The guitars charge ahead, an [...]
When Pela said, "yeah, there's an undertow, but it ain't got me" in 2007, the implied assumption was it would have gotten you by now. It was New York after all, an inverted version of Sinatra's "If I can make it there ..." thesis; if I can make it there, I'll be dragged out to sea. Pela, it is worth noting, is now We Are Augustines , opening for the Counting Crows , an undertow of an entirely different variety. Another Brooklyn band, Daytona , who sound a lot [...]
For anyone who might be thinking that a festival in Camden is a bad idea, think again. XPN's annual XPoNential Music Festival proves that solid music needs no tropical beach or remote field to promote having an awesome time. With the Susquehanna Bank Center as the main stage, the surrounding East-Delaware River coast transformed into an indie-lover's paradise - music in the air, t-shirts of bands you never heard of and beach balls. After asking around on Sunday about the experience we were told that The Hold Steady and The Lumineers paced [...]

The next big band to come out of Los Angeles could easily be NO. Cutting somewhere between the grandiosity of group vocals and the baritone gravel of a lead singer that eerily evokes Berninger's National, the band crafts the same kind of burnished melodies end up as well-worn, memorized hooks. "In Another Life", one of six excellent songs on the band's debut EP, builds its house out of a
We write from our hearts, which happens to be something that we strongly demand from any bands that are covered on these blog pages. There are few rules to earn your place on The Recommender, except that you have to be bloody good and write your music with integrity. If we like you then we write you, and today's recommendation has our hearts properly hooked. We're certainly not the first online commentators to point this duo out to people, because they've enjoyed a building swarm of online coverage as we lead up to their debut album. They've earned [...]
Thieving Irons is the new project from former Pela guitarist Nate Martinez, and " So Long " is his drifty, catchy new track. In the song's video, fish and people and manatees hang out underwater, and there's also some naval-battle stock footage and B-movie scenery in there as well. Micah Van Hove directs. Watch it or stream the song below. Read More...
Nate Martinez, the former guitarist for Pela, has a new project called Thieving Irons. Though the new band hasn't yet announced any album-release plans, they'll be releasing some singles over the next few months. The latest "So Long," is a perfectly lovely piece of comfort-food indie. It's a pretty idea Tuesday-morning soundtrack, and you can download it below. Read More...
Uma ótima fase para os fãs de Wilco . Se na última quarta feira uma apresentação destruidora, porém curta, da banda no Live on Letterman foi transmitida, agora é a vez da NPR assumir a responsabilidade de transmitir para o mundo um show de Tweedy e cia., na íntegra, incluindo até mesmo seu show de abertura, com Nick Lowe , direto do lendário Merriweather Post Pavillion (a casa de shows, não o álbum do Animal Collective ) em Columbia. O show, parte da recentemente iniciada turnê do álbum The Whole Love [...]

Pela - Waiting On The Stairs You feel the wind before you see the light. In some stations - depending on the curve of the tunnel that disappears into the darkness to your right - the white light appears before the blast of hot, stagnant air collides with your cheek. But if you've been waiting for the subway long enough to notice the gust, you've given up on peering into the dark, searching for the train. You know where that leads: Looking for the light at the beginning of the tunnel is worst than standing still. [...]

Hoje, uma decisão histórica foi tomada pelo Supremo Tribunal Federal brasileiro. O Brasil, país que sempre se orgulhou de sua posição como lar da tolerância e da igualdade, acaba de aprovar unanimemente as uniões homoafetivas. Uma grande vitória contra o preconceito, assinada e definitiva. Em homenagem à comunidade gay de nosso país, preparamos uma pequena playlist. Vamos comemorar a lei com algumas canções que combatem o preconceito, com o bom humor de Lily Allen e sua Fuck You , o conto de Billy Brown de Mika e os hinos Freedom [...]
