Os Pontiak dos irmãos Carney voltão à carga com mais um brilhante álbum repleto de linhas de baixo robustas e guitarras pesadas com riffs de encher o ouvido. Este novo registo, Living, de seu nome, nada de novo traz ao universo dos norte-americanos Pontiak, e isso (neste caso) é positivo. A qualidade deste disco reside precisamente na ideia simples de o ouvinte desfrutar uma música simples, despretensiosa, mas com paixão, numa gravação à moda antiga, ou seja, em sistema analógico, ou que já vem sendo raro no mundo digital. O som sujo e empoeirado é um regalo para os ouvidos. [...]
Photo by Bek Andersen Three I'm-not-sure-you-realize-how-h ard-it-is-to-come-up-with-a-no n-sequitur-a-day reasons to don your finest faded blue jeans and ratty old flannel and hit up the Hideout tonight... 1. I really want to describe Baltimore's Arbouretum as Bonnie Prince Billy fronting Sunn0))), mostly because I'd go see that band in a heart beat. They are definitely grungier than most of their folk-y contemporaries, but that just points us towards Crazy Horse-lead Neil Young. A very fine comparison it is. Still, there is something darker and, dare I say, evil lurking in their songs. [...]

Ancora più destrutturato di Maker , sperimentale quanto Sun of sun anche se in modo diverso, Living ha un profumo agreste. Se li vedi i tre fratelli dei Pontiak te li immagini inforcare chili di paglia per farne balle nella loro fattoria della Virginia. Living ha un colore notturno, tranne un paio di pezzi rosso fuoco per quanto rock respira nei loro groove scarni, il resto è come un cielo stellato, puoi tracciare un segno immaginario per unire le stelle ma poi ti perdi, ecco i pezzi di Living sono così, [...]

Die Songs des neuen Pontiak-Albums müssen allesamt auf dem Equipment von Spinal Tap eingespielt worden sein: Die Volume-Regler an den Gitarrenverstärkern zeigen auf 11. "It's one louder" - damit brüstete sich 1984 schon Nigel Tufnel, Lead-Gitarrist der fiktiven Band Spinal Tap. Auch die drei Brüder von Pontiak schwören auf ihrem aktuellen Album "Sea Voids" auf [...]
Monday: White Hills + Pontiak @ Cake Shop 8pm $7 [ info ] There are worse fates in life than to go underrated for most of your career, but when you have worked as hard and are as talented as these two bands that just shouldn't be the case. Yet for some reason both White Hills and Pontiak seem to fly way under the radar and that's probably why you can still see them at venues like Cake Shop. That may be good for music loving fanatics like you and me, but hopefully these [...]
MP3: Pontiak - Life and Coral from Sea Voids (2009) The prolific Pontiak released two stellar albums in 2009: Maker and Sea Voids , and look to have a new release this Spring. Both albums have garnered considerable critical praise, and they've ridden a steadily rising wave of internet popularity. Their live show is captivating and loud...catch them close out Sonar's Club stage at Aural States Fest II on January 30th. AS: Before releasing Sea Voids you moved back to the Shenandoah Mountains [...]

Brendan Losch Today's tasty little treat comes from a Chicago based singer-song writer by the name of Brendan Losch, who is currently giving away a shed load of his back material to download over at his Bandcamp . He describes himself as “Low and Slow", if you are looking for a good starting point I'd go with the EP on his Bandcamp. Kudos goes out to the ever wonderful Tarty Tart who does the excellent Love Shack Baby blog for bringing him to my attention. Sub Pop/ Ben Sollee & Daniel [...]
Well here it is, uncharacteristically early (for this blog) and simultaneously fashionably late. I won't go into some long essay that summarizes what I think of this (my pissy previous post took care of the most inarticulate aspects of that), so I'll leave you with my typical mitigating statements. There are still a bunch of albums I want (and need) to hear that could have very well made this list (Dam Funk anyone?)…therefore comments are appreciated even more than normal on this post. Don't be bashful! Let's go. Rob's Favorite [...]
Pontiak Sea Voids (Thrill Jockey) In my review of their album “ Maker ” earlier this year I pointed out that listening on headphones on an underground train had befuddled me on first listen, but that once I’d thrown it on using real speakers I’d found an earsplitting hunk of wonder. Good news, everybody! They’ve done it again. This album is less of a sea and more of an ocean, from the big and deep and slow and menacing blues stomp that gives [...]
