![Roadkill Ghost Choir – Quiet Light EP [album review / SXSW '13]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4772608_lg.jpg)
Around February, we start getting flooded with emails about bands going to Austin for SXSW. We miss at least half of them but every year we wind up with a few new bands that become "must-see" at SXSW. Last year Pickwick and Field Report were a couple of those acts. Over the next month, we will try and spotlight some lesser known acts that you should make a point of catching in Austin, or anywhere for that matter. Say hello to Roadkill Ghost Choir from Deland, FL, a band that I will definitely cross paths with in Austin. [...]

#OCCUPYDENVER was raided this morning and had most items confiscated. This is the most press the group has garnered and Governor and Mayor have stirred a hornet's nest. This act of breaking up the downtown sector will not sit well with many and a strategic move will be needed to keep the movement going. Things are going to get very exciting 'round these parts in coming days. Baron Bane-Echoes (the Deer Tracks Remix) LANA DEL REY - Blue Jeans (Mover Shaker Remix) Trombone Shorty - [...]

Brooklyn band Spanish Prisoners released their stunning debut lp Gold Fools this week. Building from their previous ep Los Angeles Guitar Dream , the band has created a solid effort that is loaded with careful nuances, intricate songwriting, and powerful explosions of sound. Fans of post "Kids" MGMT (I being one) should especially take note, as the work here is on par with the psychedelic precision of Congratulations , though I find Gold Fools to be far more even-keeled and streamlined. Gold Fools is perfectly compelling the [...]
Beko_86 Tracklist: 01 – St.Thomas 02 – March Con così tante Netlabel si fa veramente fatica a seguire davvero tutto, si fa fatica a scaricare ed ascoltare così tante band sconosciute. Ma prendiamo ad esempio qualcuno che ce la fa a sentire tutto, ma più che altro che riesce anche a catalogarlo egregiamente, ad esempio Il Blog di Eldino uno dei migliori per quanto riguarda l'essere sempre [...]
[Video stills by Cannons ] The Brooklyn band Quiet Lights was high on my list of artists to invite to our inaugural Northside Festival showcase, and they delivered, closing out the NYCTaper Northside Festival showcase at Public Assembly with an intense set of songs that included most of their recently-released EP, The Big Fear . As with the first time I saw them at the Knitting Factory, they brought a dense, heavy sound with them, leavened by vocalist Yseult Tyler’s dreamscape vocals. Theirs is the sound of [...]

За прошедшую неделю наши бруклинские друзья и авторы одного из лучших гостевых плейлистов на Big Echo, квинтет Quiet Lights сделали немало полезных дел – выпустили короткометражку « The Big Fear » и обновили клип с демо-версией « Twice Today », презентовав студийную версию, которая войдёт на альбом. С каждой выложенной композицией становится всё заметнее, что группа переходит от рок-звучания в сторону изучения гипнотического дрим-поп чувства. Не устаю переслушивать их записи, не перестаю удивляться тому, что они делают, и настоятельно рекомендую поймать правильное настроение для прослушивания «The Big Fear». The Big Fear by Quiet Lights
