Greatness separates itself from good this week. While The Horrors and Afrobeta shine, the latest from Scattered Trees has tour dates sold out for most of the current dates on their tour. Scattered Trees earns the great spotlight thanks to the release of Sympathy , which comes via Roll Call Records/EMI as the group's sophomore album. The group's tour reaches to the end of September with The Alternate Routes and Paul Dempsey opening up. From London, the five-man band of The Horrors emerge with Skying. Their [...]

Projects recorded at home are all the rage nowadays. Brooklyn’s Pursesnatchers began as a home-recording, husband-and-wife duo consisting of Doug Marvin of Dirty on Purpose and Au Revoir Simone’s Annie Hart. The two would later go on to recruit friends Jared Barron and Harold Liu to transform Pursesnatchers into a live entity, and the group remained a quartet when recording their full-length debut, A Pattern Language , in both home and professional studios. A Pattern Language starts with a bang thanks to opener “Forever Overhead”, a catchy number that simultaneously recalls and [...]

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars When Dirty on Purpose broke up, I was a bit saddened, thinking I'd never get to hear their blend of sharp-edged indie pop again. Luckily, Doug Marvin and his wife, Annie of Au Revoir Simone , had other thoughts in mind, forming Pursesnatchers at home in their bedroom. They've since fleshed out a full band and completed A Pattern Language , giving all the old DoP fans something to hold onto. "Forever Ahead" [...]
[ download ] [tweetmeme] Brooklyn’s pursesnatchers began as a home-recording project by Doug Marvin, formerly of Dirty on Purpose , and his wife Annie Hart, currently of Au Revoir Simone . They liked the results well enough that they’ve since doubled the size of the band to a full quartet for their debut full-length, A Pattern Language , released July 19th on Uninhabitable Mansions (a new label home to recently spotlighted act Radical Dads ). “Wet [...]

Pursesnatchers began as an at-home recording project but lucky for us, they’ve taken their collection of gems to a studio to release for our listening bliss.

Been watching the middle class shrink while the dollar goes down and the price of everything goes up? Moreover, at this point everyone knows someone who has either lost their job or been fondled at the airport.

I'm going to say right now, but one of my favorite records so far this summer has been the advance I got of Pursesnatchers , the group comprised of members of Dirty on Purpose and Au Revoir Simone. The combination of gentle melody and explosive indie rock moments. The rising tides in the songs, much like those in the album, take you on a journey where you're sure to get your money's worth. Their new record, A Pattern Language , will be coming out on July [...]

Take Doug Marvin from Dirty on Purpose and Annie Hart from Au Revoir Simone (they are husband and wife) and you get a brand new act called Pursesnatchers. And because we've featured both of the aforementioned acts before we almost feel like we know them already. Of course there is another reason for that and it relates to the fact that the template they use is of the classic indie rock kind. Hardly generic in its application though because they visit Sonic Youth country without ever sounding as oblique as such visits generally turn out to [...]

I've been aware of this band for some time now, anxiously awaiting the chance to introduce them to you. Pursesnatchers began as the project of Doug from Dirty on Purpose , who I loved, but soon his wife Annie from Au Revoir Simone joined in to round out the project. The band releases its debut, A Pattern Language on Uninhabitable Mansions July 19th, which based on this first single is going to be every bit as exciting as I hoped. It features the [...]
