STREAM/DOWNLOAD : Crock - "No More Dumb Fun" (from forthcoming CD Grok - out Sept. 27th) Crock is a new project from Quasi's Sam Coomes and Hella's Spencer Seim. The band's sound is built off the fuzzed-out / freaked-out urban electonica of bands like Suicide to which the band add elements of space rock, Zappa / Pavement style free-form deconstruction, dark stoner riffs and pounding industrial squiggles and rhythms. The disc's cover art was done by Janet Weiss (Quasi / Sleater-Kinney) and its montage of colors [...]
In case you missed it, four of the most rocking women around decided to get back to making music and call themselves Wild Flag. Carrie Brownstein, Janet Weiss, Mary Timony, and Rebecca Cole have quite a rock 'n 'roll pedigree, having logged time and miles in bands including Sleater-Kinney, Quasi, Helium, Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks, and The Minders. It then goes without saying that Wild Flag's debut is both highly-anticipated and chock full of hard rocking riffs -- and, undoubtedly, a good time. The band recently released a trailer for their self-titled debut album, which features clips of a [...]
The gifts keep on coming.. I've got a couple of pairs of tickets to give away for the Sebadoh and Quasi show that's going down this Friday (February 25, 2011) at the Echoplex in Echo Park. Sebadoh's calling their tour "The Bakesale/Harmacy Remembering Time Tour" which is pretty incredible since those are my two favorite Sebadoh records. Not coincidentally, both of those records will be reissued/expanded later this year on Sub Pop . The band for this tour consists of Lou Barlow, Jason Loewenstein and Bob D'Amico. Opening the show [...]

(Teil 1) Platz 48 Eluvium - Static Nocturne Matthew Cooper zeigte die Möglichkeiten seines Schaffens als Eluvium dieses Jahr auf zwei höchst unterschiedlichen Alben auf. Auf Similes brachte er in etwas songorientierteren Strukturen seine Stimme als neues Spielelement in seine Ambientwelt ein, gelungener erschien mir aber sein in Eigenregie veröffentlichtes wortloses Bad im Rauschen. Ein langer Track, aus dessen einziger Konstanten, dem hypnotischen Schneefall, sich immer wieder sanfte Ambienttexturen und Melodien herausschälen und die Schönheit des allumfassenden Knisterns auf bezaubernde Weise [...]
Congratulations to the PacNW for another stellar year in music. It really outdid itself. There were quite a few bands from our region who received obscene amounts of attention this annum and even rippled the national scene with their respective records. Unfortunately, not many of them ended up on my list. Despite this cultural discrepancy, however, the bands and albums listed below represent what I believe to be the very best in Northwest music that you could've listened to in twenty-ten. Or not; I dunno, I'm just one dude. Feliz Navidad! . [...]
Wait, weren't we just here? Like, in 2009? As I hinted at in last year's TDoL year-end extravaganza , making these lists is always a tug-of-war between what feels good and what actually is good. But if it makes you feel good, it must be good ... right? So here's the process: I frantically assemble my list. Move things around. Re-listen to records. Cut one here; add another there. Anxiety sets in. I lose sleep. Get a few more gray hairs. Stop eating solid foods. I don't bathe. I empty out my bank [...]
As you know, it's not "All Seattle, All The Time" here on Seattle Subsonic. We broaden (and shrink) our palettes like any other discerning, in-the-know music fan. Lucky for us here in Worshington, 180 miles downward is the perfect excuse to test our tastes. It's no secret that Portland (the OREGON one) is a hip, emerging town with more to offer than bicycle lanes and breakfast spots. A vibrant music scene is a keystone to any desirable city, and our sister town to the south has one of the best. If you slept on the Rose City this year, here [...]

Here's Portland alt-punk vets Quasi performing in front of some mural at the KEXP BBQ last Saturday. I went with LargeLarge. I didn't see any of the other bands. . I think the band's latest record, American Gong , has gotten better the more I listen to it ("with age", as they say), as Sam Coomes' bristly barroom stories are the perfect complement to the band's grungy pop-punk. Similar to Pixies (my No. 1 Favorite Band), Quasi is kind of all over the [...]

The Tallest Man on Earth – The Wild Hunt. Download "Burden of Tomorrow" (mp3). Download "King of Spain" (mp3). The Tallest Man on Earth is the sardonic musical name of five-foot-seven-inch Kristian Matsson. He has a raspy voice, sings songs with beguiling melodies and refined lyrics, and picks and strums with verve. Both The Wind Hunt and Sometimes the Blues is Just a Passing Bird are each the most consistently relishable albums of the year. Quasi – American Gong. Download "Repulsion" (mp3).
