You're not gonna want to miss this show on December 4th at Arlene's Grocery, organized by Deli intern Amanda Check it: Brooklyn's Sea Monsters (in the picture) are a trio that make rockin', awesome unabashedly in yo' face punk music. The bros make an awesome, lo-fi brand of music that is poppy without being too annoyingly poppy and discusses the fun things in life: sex, love, and having fun. NYC duo Indian Rebound have in The Deli's radar recently, with their signature brand of dreamy, [...]

Even though Sam is a friend, he's my second favorite drummer to photograph after tonight's show. It's tough to beat Todd Trainer . Check Sea Monsters on the web and follow them on twitter for more.
With cello and violin light trails that lead you ever towards your personal secret garden, Swedish duo Mire Kay are guides with gorgeous tendencies. In a Laura Veirs absence, Emelie Molin and Victoria Skoglund step boldly into place with (forgive me) ethereal and regal manners. With five amazing songs, their debut EP entitled Fortress transports [...]
I'm very quietly, very cautiously writing this blog post from work because I have plans tonight and I'm not going to be able to generate an update otherwise. Don't worry, I'll schedule it for a few hours ahead of now just in case a co-worker or boss happens to click onto the website during business [...]
Sea Monsters is the name of a five-day mini-festival which took place in Brighton in January of 2011 promoted by local label One Inch Badge . It's also the name of the accompanying compilation release put out by label, which, like the festival did back in January, aims to highlight all of the excellent musical things going on Brighton, and a most excellent job that they've done of it too. Sea Monsters is an 18 track release of carefully selected songs – spanning from delicate folk music to instrumental [...]

I think you'll recall Virginia Beach's Seamonster (a.k.a. musician/comic artist Adrian Todd Webb). His Two Birds 73 EP was one of 20102s best releases, and this follow-up single, "Plastic Fangs", is a pretty nice preview of where he may be heading from here. Seamonster - Plastic Fangs

Seamonster // "Plastic Fangs" Last time we were hearing from Seamonster , he was trying his hand at crafting some Appalachian folk music. "Plastic Fangs" is a new track that finds Seamonster shedding that folky skin and stepping out into the world with a new style of songwriting. While I always liked his folk music, I have to admit that I am liking the style of this track much more. There are still hints of folk influence here, but for the most part the [...]

Mire Kay - Sea Monster Om en vecka, 20 april, släpper Mire Kay sin debut-EP Fortress på Tenderversion. Mire Kay består av Emelie Molin och Victoria Skoglund som tidigare spelat i bandet Audrey, men nu väljer de alltså att göra musik på egen hand. Exempel på det kan ni ladda hem ovan i och med låten Sea Monster. Vackert och stämningsfullt är det, och det rör sig i den där folkpop-sfären.

It's time again to look back, reflect, and contemplate... what were we listening to one year ago? Listen to the April 2010 Mix and find out.

Last year I received a free a 73 copy of Seamonster's debut EP Two Birds with the Gobble Gobble LP I ordered through Flying Rhino Records. Seamonster is the moniker of one Adrain Todd Webb. Some solid lo-fi pop; it's a very nice listen, especially with Spring right around the corner. Keep an eye on this man in 2011. Check out the video for "Bearsuit" below and head over to Seamonster's bandcamp to pick up the EP yourself. It's available digitally (name your price), or on 73 colored vinyl ($5).
"Bearsuit" is taken from Seamonster's 2011 Two Birds EP, released via Gold Robot Records. The music video was directed by Chad Hartigan. ( Dap to Get Off the Coast for the video. )
Covers are tricky thing -- remaining true to the spirit of the original while putting your own unique signature on it can be an interesting balancing act. To hear how it can be done, check out this version of the Terence Trent D'arby's 80's hit from Jason Spooner . Taken from his consistently fine album Sea Monster , "Wishing Well"'s punchy brass highlights and slinky guitar lines keep the original's funky foundation while putting a seamless folk/rock shuffle right on top. More DC on Spooner and Sea Monster here . [...]

Die eine Hälfte der MelanchoPop-Girlband Audrey schliesst die Augen und gibt sich als Mire Kay den Launen der Vorstellungskraft hin. Ein erstes Lied lässt hinter die Lider blicken. Nach neun Jahren, zweieinhalb Platten und unzähligen Shows liessen Emelie Molin und Victoria Skoglund ihre Kolleginnen von Audrey erstmal ausruhn. Sie selbst zogen sich ins stille Kämmerchen zurück und gestatteten Stimme und Instrument im intimeren Rahmen mehr Raum. Raum, der jederzeit schaffbar und worin alles möglich ist. " When closing your eyes you will never know where you will [...]

This playlist has been mutating since the beginning of 2011 and to be honest I'm kind of fuzzy on what songs were initially there. I can tell you that some of these songs are by my friends, and that three of them (You Don't Surf, Losing It and Plastic Fangs) were added about fifteen minutes ago. More importantly I can tell you that this mixtape sounds exactly how I've been feeling for the past two weeks. Hopefully listening to it will be as soothing for you as making it has been for me.

I'm not sure how I spaced on posting anything about Virginia Beach's Todd Webb aka Seamonster until now, but it is what it is. If you have a chance, go check out the fabulous Two Birds... [go to the website to read the rest of the article, download mp3s and more]

Click image to download full album Song: Mire Kay - Sea Monster "Mire Kay - Sea Monster" What's so good? I absolutely loved this song after first listen. Anyone who likes the cello will understand what I mean - the low, deep sound instantly takes you to a haunting, winter landscape. The melody picks up at around 2:00, with spunky beats and some vocals reminiscent of Joanna Newsom. With the lovely echoes and subtle undertones, it's not surprising [...]
