Hey! Thought we forgot about this, eh? Nah... Next time I leave the country for a month, I will also leave access to the hard drive where all my files are located. So we're still aiming to re-post all of the Blogophilia volumes by summer's end. Today we have volumes 5 & 6, which feature promotional MP3s available during May and June of 2009. As always, these are gapless mixes with cover art. These are only up for a limited time, so get them now! - [...]
Last week we covered a new track from Portland folk outfit Death Songs called "Wounds" off the new PDX Pop Now! compilation. We talked a little bit about the band and the song, and had a few words to say about the organization as well. That wasn't enough; it's high time I let slip a little something - we here at FensePost have been quiet supporters of the Portland festival. Visit the music room in my house and you'll see several from the compilation [...]
Point Juncture, WA returns with a more concentrated and energetic set of songs on Handsome Orders . Point Juncture, WA has followed its excellent and lush 2009 album, Heart to Elk, with a more concentrated and energetic set of songs on Handsome Orders. The impressive layering hasn't disappeared here, but it is toned down and the immediate hook drives most of these songs. The band works best when mixing oddly coupled layers together. Even on the most straightforward pop songs, like "When You Wake Up It's Today", the bright hush of acoustic...
Point Juncture, WA- "Violin Case" video stream My tastes have changed considerably in the intervening years, but there was a time when each new release by record labels like Homestead, SST and Twin/Tone changed my life. Handsome Orders , the fine new album by Point Juncture, WA is a glorious throwback to those simpler times. It's jangly and arty- and it rocks. Reference points include Paul McCartney and Mitch Easter. "Baptist Jesus" even manages to sound like a mashup of Yes and R.E.M. And [...]

Point Juncture, WA 's new video for "Economics of Basketball" certainly has the basketball part covered--a few superimposed shots of hoops are present in the video--but there's also a weird thing going on with mannequins, that we're not quite sure we understand. Check it out above.
