SF space rock duo Seventeen Evergreen continue their tradition of sophisticated visuals with the clip for "Burn The Fruit." It's like a much more visually-friendly update to the final part of Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey , so it's in good company. Brian Ziffer directs. Watch it below and grab the MP3 while you're there. Read More...

When knuckling down to the finer intricacies of classroom-based botany, there was always an endless intrigue located within the way in which evergreens would retain their spindly fingers and seasonally perfumed pines for periods of time that, at such an age, seemed just so endless. San Fran duo Seventeen Evergreen tinge such concept with finite restriction and although few artists ever muster such profuse discography (the compulsive pulses of Daniel Johnston, R. Stevie Moore, etc. aside) the wide-eyed, raging synth maelstroms of follow-up full-length Steady On, Scientist! never quite substantiate the claims of radical enterprise contained [...]
Okay, so if you just listen to the first little bit of this song, then you'll definitely get the electro-pop elements featured at the beginning of this new jam by Seventeen Evergreen . But, while the song goes along, it evolves into more of an avant-pop construction, coating the track with slight bits of ambient noise, before returning to the electro-pop hook. You can find this track this week in your local record store on the group's new release, Steady On, Scientist , which was put out by [...]

Being compared with The Flaming Lips, MGMT and Midlake might have an adverse effect on a band. It could either go to their heads, leading them to only go on to disappoint. Or, it could be a critical burden that could only lead to burn out while trying not to disappoint. Neither applies to Caleb Pate and Nephi Evans, the writers, singers, musicians and producers from San Francisco who are the whole and the parts of Seventeen Evergreen. There is a glorious lack of self-consciousness on this their second album. Instead we find an abundance and wealth of [...]

Upon entering Bimbo's 365 aka San Francisco's classiest venue, I could tell that Atlas Sound (the solo project of Deerhunter frontman Bradford Cox) had its own diverse audience. I did not expect so many teens and pre-teens to be attending this unusual showcase. I guess I've underestimated Bradford's reach when it comes to grabbing a youthful audience. Not that there's anything wrong with that; I'm all for our youth to experience anything but what's being force feed to them on the radio nowadays. However, what I definitely did not expect was the utterly bizarre opening acts for Atlas Sound [...]

Fellow San Francisco band Seventeen Evergreen have just been announced as the opener for the Tycho show this Saturday at The Independent . They recently released this Terri Timely directed video for Polarity Song . Incredible color and definition in this.

'Polarity Song', the opening track from the San Francisco duo's new The Psyentist EP has given birth to one of the best videos this year, in my opinion. A collaboration between directors Terri Timely and artist Sarah Applebaum, it works on the concept of "Woollen terrorist warfare amidst everyday thrift shop mundanity". It's basically lots of people wrapped up in knitwear, kidnapping shoppers and hauling them into a woollen world of thrift. It's kind of amazing, and it joyfully welcomed me to the world of Seventeen Evergreen . But when stripped [...]
It will be hard to return to that moment in 2005 when Interpol's second LP, Antics, arrived in my mailbox. George Bush was just beginning his second term in office and like the rest of America's college students I was waiting out the cultural malaise by getting lost in a vaguely highfalutin vocabulary and a criminally low self-awareness. Needless to say, I loved it, the record. But as Interpol

Os Seventeen Evergreen, banda originária de São Francisco, são alguns dos responsáveis por um dos vídeos mais curtidos do ano. Trata-se do tema "Polarity Song" e consta no seu mais recente EP, 'Psyentist'. Após um caminho algo orientado para o funk-rock, na senda dos The Dandy Warhols ou mesmo dos The Rapture, os Seventeen Evergreen lançaram um álbum há alguns anos atrás, 'Life Embarasses
