I trust you're all recovering/resting/relaxing today. Whether you welcomed 2012 with a quiet night at home alongside family and friends, or joined some raucous, drunken celebration at a house/club/bar, I'm sure it was a great time. If you must know about my night, I thoroughly enjoyed myself. Considering New Years last year was probably the [...]
You guys, I can't do this anymore. I can't give you descriptions of all these albums and post 30 or 40 MP3s along the way. It just takes too much time and effort. I'll try to make this a little bit more than just a list, because I want it to look a tiny bit [...]

L'album Hazed Dream de Psychic Ills est un mouvement oblique. On est tenté d'abord de se laisser prendre par le piège de l'horizontalité. Par la régularité apparente de l'album, qui rappelle une avancée tranquille sur un paysage mental plan. Il y a l'image du bocage qui vient en tête avec ses obstacles franchissables ; ses haies géométriques, dérangeantes. Mais la musique que distille le groupe est bien plus excentrique. Shoegaze expérimental/psychédélisme décalé et exigu/pop obscure mais toujours rampante, jamais évidente : Hazed Dream est une énigme géographique. Pourtant, l'album ne parle pas d'errance de façon difficile. Comme l'annonce Midnight [...]

[iPhone photos by acidjack] For some, Halloween means dressing up in an ironic/slut/wacky costume, and then hitting various bars acting like a jackass - which is totally cool by me. But for those seeking a tad more structure on a Monday Halloween night (and somewhere more interesting to wear said costume), Music Hall of Williamsburg offered an ideal bill of bands with a dark, psychedelic vibe - gothmeisters Exitmusic (our Glasslands recording of them here ), headliners The Black Angels (our most recent recording of them here ), and [...]

![FEIST, ST. VINCENT, CAVEMAN [SUGGESTED NYC CONCERTS]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3828849_lg.jpg)
Happy Halloween to you and you and you. I'm sitting here dressed as Ash Ketchum from Pokémon hoping that the snow storm we had on Saturday night (seriously?) wasn't the beginning of winter for us here in New York City. It's currently supposed to be chilly but nice, which is, in my opinion, the best weather for venturing out and seeing some live music. From Feist and Battles , to The Drums and Pixies , we have some extraordinary artists visiting our city this week. See below for our suggested shows of [...]
