Review by Michelle Da Silva (@michdas) Photos by David Thai (@david_thai) Sweaty nightcrawlers were alive and well at the Biltmore Cabaret on March 20 as early as 8 p.m. The group, which normally would be sitting down for possibly their first meal of the day having woken just a few hours earlier, were sloshing back [...]

De ietwat vreemd geplaatste leestekens in de titel van dit stukje doen terecht vermoeden dat het nog steeds elektronische muziek is wat de scepter zwaait in huize mrbungle (beloofd: komende maand weer meer folk-achtige muziek). Ditmaal twee acts van het befaamde label Warp Records dat getuige de huidige verzameling artiesten (onder andere Grizzly Bear , Jamie Lidell , Gonjasufi ) al lang niet meer gezien kan worden als een puur elektronica label. Het Australische PVT droeg eerder de naam Pivot totdat een enigszins labiele Amerikaanse band met een rechtszaak ging dreigen. [...]

Australian soundscapists are hardly ten-a-penny and Pivot are one in two. In fact the internet wasn't big enough for the both of them, so Richard Pike's troupe dropped the vowels and became reincarnated as PVT . Church With No Magic, the trio's forthcoming LP could therefore be construed to be their debut almost and it sees Pike toying with hazy, ethereal vocals, becoming the band's focal point, the front man he's consistently threatened to become. Speaking the innumerable benefits of signing to the seminal Warp Records, the inevitable perils of that dirty word Myspace, and [...]

parte il riverbero e la prima cosa che ti viene in mente sono i Grizzly Bear seduti in fila nel video di Two Weeks. Sembra un santuario ma è tutto più acido, buffo e spaventoso. Se nella chiesa di questi ultimi c'è pomposità in abbondanza e un prete che se la ride piacione sullo sfondo i PVT sterzano sull'esoterismo. Ricordo una volta chissà chi mi raccontò di come i Can si fossero chiusi in un teatro dipingendo tutto di nero per registrare un loro disco, storia che potrei aver inventato di sana pianta o essere verissima. Eppure è l'immagine perfetta [...]

Nach einem Rechtsstreit muss die australische Band Pivot Vokale lassen, kündigt unter dem Namen PVT ihr drittes Album an und beweist, dass sich nach wie vor alles um sie dreht. Sie waren es wohl leid im Schatten ihrer Namensvetter rumzunudeln, die New Metaller aus den USA, die sich mit juristischem Geschütz die Rechte am Namen Pivot gesichert haben. Doch während sich die Amerikaner in fahler Genugtuung noch gegenseitig auf die Schulter klopfen, haben die Australier bereits einen weiteren grossen Wurf im Ofen. Zwei Jahre nach dem Release ihres [...]

• PvT - Window

PVT, the Australian trio who was formerly known as Pivot, has released a video for their track "Window." While the group has dropped the vowels from their name due to a lawsuit with an American band, they have added vocals to what was initially an all instrumental sound similar to that of Battles. Grab two tracks from PVT and watch the video for "Window" below and don't forget to pick yourself up a copy of the group's upcoming effort Church with No Magic . [...]

Le 23 Août sortira chez Warp Church With No Magic , le nouvel opus de PVT aka Pivot. Toujours entre électro et pop, leur crédo reste l'expérimentation. Le clip "Window" nous en donne un premier aperçu. Épileptiques s'abstenir.

Really excited about Pivot's new album after a killer SXSW show and this great new tune. Pivot also appeared in the Heineken Music episode alongside Jim Carroll, Angela Dorgan of First Music Contact, Julie Feeney and Phil Canning of Warp. You can watch it after the more.

You remember La Mode ? Those precocious young scamps behind one of the most popular bootlegs of the bloghause era? They're back, kind of, in mysterious black n' white / large font format. What does this mean? After what? Afternoon, afterlife or just after tonight's episode of House MD. I will continue to agitate for something to post. Until then, there's 5 demos streaming at their myspace . Grumpy, moody, electronicy. Promising! SPEAKING OF STREAMING... Did y'all hear about this Pivot 'leak' Their [...]

Nine of the bands featured in this podcast also played at South By Southwest this year. That's just the way it is - the effect the festival has on the proceeding months of the year as bands who went down well in Texas continue to impress as we go. This time around we've got Brahms - a "ones to watch" status band, new album tracks from Errors, Gonjasufi, Dum Dum Girls, Oh No Ono, Phantogram, Alcoholic Faith Mission, Pivot, Holly Miranda as well as Swedish band Frederik (highly recommend their Trilogi album from last year), [...]

The gauntlet has been thrown down. South by South West is upon us once again. Over a year, the impact of this massive music festival in Austin, Texas can diminish since your last visit, but oh lordy, make no mistake, Austin is the music town.
