Nada Surf's Matthew Caws isn't big on organized religion, but when the spirit does move him, it always has a soundtrack. And that soundtrack has come a long way over the last 16 years. You'd be hard-pressed to discern so much as a whiff of snarky 1996 hit "Popular" amid the bracing, impeccably crafted power [...]

Apologies for being a bit of a tease. I thought it might be better to split the post as I have outdone myself in attempting to justify my no. 6. Be gentle with me; I am but a music nerd... 10. Jar of Hearts - Christina Perri An odd one this. Perri was unsigned when this big old angsty ballad was posted on her YouTube channel in June 2010 and quickly became a sizeable hit in the US.

Don't call it a remix! That's the word from the King Midas Sound camp about the sonic re-imaginings that are at the center of their upcoming album release, Without You . While it finds the trio enlisting an impressive array of friends in order to rework tracks from their 2009 debut album, Waiting For You , King Midas means for Without You to be more in the tradition of reggae artists who offer up dub versions of their tracks, especially those who oversee the dubbing themselves. After all, KMS is known for combining reggae [...]
Cupid & Psyche 85 is the second album by the British new wave pop group Scritti Politti. It remains the band's most successful album, reaching No. 5 in the UK, and was certified Gold by the BPI for 100,000 copies sold. The album contained five singles, three of which were top 20 hits in the UK. The single "Perfect Way," while not a major UK chart success, was a surprise hit in the US, reaching No. 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 in a 25-week run on the chart. Read more »
How did one shy, Welsh intellectual with a passion for Marxism and Deconstructionist theory convince Mos Def, Miles Davis and Robert Wyatt to appear on his records? Simple: write some of the most beguiling, fascinating pop songs of his era. Green Gartside, the brains behind Scritti Politti , is often mentioned alongside such eighties cult genii as Kevin Rowland or Paddy MacAloon; yet, while Rowland had dungarees and the great Irish writers, and MacAloon wrapped himself in "the songs of Georgie Gershwin", Green lived for Roland Barthes, Jacques Derrida and the Top 40 - a singular mix that makes [...]
It's been two weeks since I 'leaked' one of the new tracks from Scritti Politti on YouTube. Scritti have a Best Of on the way later this month, and, thankfully, have recorded two new tracks to sweeten the deal. Prompted by an excited message on fansite Bibbly-o-Te k, I learned that Steve Wright played one of the new tracks, A Day Late And A Dollar Short, on BBC Radio 2. He cut it off 30 seconds before the end and he didn't say what it was. Apart from that, only a handful of people had [...]

I've spent the greater part of the weekend pretty much lazing about and reading Simon Reynolds ' 2006 book " Rip it Up and Start Again " (Postpunk 1978-1984). It's post-punk on overload, helping one learn about those fitful, conspiring and musically experimental bands that followed the 1976-1978 punk explosion. Bands like PiL (Rotten's Pistols' follow-up), The Fall, Gang of Four, Joy Division, Devo, Talking Heads. The Human League, Scritti Politti, James Chance and the downtown NY Mudd Club scene and so much more. The book tackles loads of postpunk ephemera - Malcolm McLaren's post-Pistols dabbles [...]
This post is a couple of weeks late, but considering I was very ill last week, I think you'll forgive me. Whatever coldette I had a few weeks ago was nothing compared to this all-out attack on my immune system. It just stopped short of the lung searing bronchitis of a couple years ago. Nonetheless, I only allowed myself to miss roughly one day of work (the illness guilt my mother instilled in me as a child is still there). I'm really starting to believe I have an immunodeficiency disorder what with my chronic allergies and seemingly high risk of [...]

Pepper Rabbit – Red Velvet Snow Ball (2011)

Obscure Sound
Obscure Sound"Tiny Fingers" is lush and exotic, with sounds of broken sitars, brass, and wind chimes backing a gentle acoustic strum. Like everything on Red Velvet Snow Ball, it would be the perfect accompaniment to a day of greenery – lying in the green grass, staring at the green trees swaying above you, and perhaps indulging in something that would make the sky appear green.
