“If this was The Walking Dead, these are the people you want to find [during the zombie apocalypse],” MC Kemst said during Author’s live performance set at SMOG Sunday Night Sessions on June 2 nd . Author , the production duo alias of UK’s Jack Sparrow and Ruckspin , performed in front of an eager crowd at Los Globos this past Sunday with support from Atlantic Connection and the Storytellers. Jack Sparrow, who was unable to perform at the SMOG Sunday Night Sessions last August due to visa complications , finally [...]
SINGLE REVIEW: If godflesh were 50% a little mellower and Air a little more agressive that is where this electric jam by Sleep Sleep falls comfortably with a mix with the spacial sounds of the flaming lips in mind. You could it shoegaze but the drum machine will tell you fuck no - that is not exactly right. Then you hear this Smog cover of "Teenage Spaceship" and you'll start to get it. I hope it comes with a big light show. I hope they have a drummer live but either way this is the good shit from [...]
On Monday, Cloudeater unveiled a new standalone single, the dark and brooding "Smog" , which I described as a "menacing slow-groove funeral march." It's an unnerving track, to be sure, with heavy traces of the sort of bleak, dystopian art-rock that Trent Reznor made a career out of in the '90s. Earlier today, the band released the accompanying video via the ever reliable ALARM , and it's pretty great. The kaleidoscopic-style imagery, both psychedelic and distressed, feels restless and surreal, assaulting the viewer with a barrage of trance-inducing geometric patterns and claustrophobic close-ups. Overall, it's [...]
Ever wonder what Nine Inch Nails sans the extreme depression, but with a large soul influence sounded like? If yes, then you're in luck because the Atlanta,GA based band Cloudeater is just that. Wale, poet-rapper turned only person with an IQ above 80 in his crew, interpolated and sampled (ruined) an early track from the band called "Sabotage." The Wale ft. Lloyd version is also called, " Sabotage ." The above track "Smog," finds vocalist Sam Dew crooning apathetically over the cadence of a strident marching band -esque snare drum coupled with dark synths. [...]
I'm not sure that Cloudeater could have chosen a better day in Atlanta to unveil their moody new single, "Smog." The cheerless chill of the air and the stark overcast skies seem to have colluded to provide the perfect backdrop for the suffocating gloom that permeates the track. Sonically, it's well trod territory for the group—the post-industrial clatter of the drums, the minimalist piano accents, Sam Dew's smoky tenor and the ominous low bass rumble have all become Cloudeater staples—but rather than aligning these elements in service of a booming alt-rock thriller as they have in the past, [...]
April arrived with all the signs of being one of the better local music months of the year, and for the most part it delivered. Although in fairness, much of the credit needs to be placed in the hands of records that arrived unexpectedly. Yes, there was excellent new music from such eagerly-awaited sources as Hawks , Slowriter , Halmos and Christ, Lord , but the month just wouldn't have been the same if Cult Relic , Bambara , Turf War and Tanner Merritt hadn't also dropped [...]

Yes the American dance music scene has it's highs and lows. We all know what the rest of the world thinks about Good Ol 'Merica. As must as you elitist, Ibiza-praising, tech-house-is-the-only-good-ge nre types think, no one can say a negative word about SMOG, 12th Planet, and the LA Underground crew. Any west coast raver will tell you, these guys started the bass movement in America and pioneered dubstep as we know it today. John Dadzie (12th Planet), Danny Johnson (Media Contender), and Drew Best started the then-promoter in 2007 throwing underground events inspired by the scene of South [...]
We though we had seen it all on the sunny shores of South beach. This year it seems the Raleigh hotel will host a show stopper with the who's who labels in dance. For 8 hours, it every bad-ass Dj out there may hit the stage in this stacked label lineup. Seriously though, there are few others pushing the limits of high-energy dance that don't sit on one of these rosters. Even when we take the bosses alone: Samo Sound Boy, Boys Noize, Brodinski, A-trak, Diplo, Skrillex, and 12th Planet that's a festival lineup in itself. This is sure to [...]
You know the score. MM is a blog that (musically) tends to favour the seedier side of life - murder ballads, heartbreak, despair, stories of the downtrodden, the down-on-their-luck, and the downhearted - you know the kind of things we mean. Ours is a world of lonely beer and whiskey chasers nursed in the back booths of dead-end bars, of crack-whores turning tricks in trailers while their children listen on from the next room, and of purposeless drifters stumbling broke, and broken, through dusty ghost-towns. Its just the way we like it round these parts. And [...]

Bill Callahan Dream River Details
Bill Callahan has been in the game a long, long time; he released his first album as Smog 23 years ago. But until this moment, I don't think I've ever seen a press photo of him smiling. Take that as an indication, then, that Callahan's next album won't showcase the dark, mordant wit that made him indie-famous - or maybe that that wit will take different forms. In a few months, Callahan will release Dream River , his follow-up to 20112s much-loved Apocalypse . Callahan recorded the album earlier this year in the amazingly [...]

12th Planet & Mayhem Collide
Who said trap is all about guns and grillz? I've always been a fan of the softer, more progressive side of trap, and after hearing Hansel Thorn's Standing on our first edition of Trap Tuesdays I just had to find some more mellow beats. SMOG Records label head and all around bass ambassador 12th Planet (pictured) has teamed up with ATL producer Mayhem to release Whoops , and it doesn't get much prettier than this. Whoops begins with melodic synths and tension-building drums before [...]

The Cul-de-sac of Life: An Interview with Bill Callahan
Bill Callahan BY PETER LILLIS Bill Callahan is a thoughtful guy. His forlorn brand of folk rock indicates an author trapped inside his own expansive mind, wandering for years through the darkest metaphors and altered, repetitive memories. With 13 albums under his belt, Callahan-once known as Smog-has an assured voice that relaxes on the sliding scale somewhere between the smokiest Willie Nelson and the smoothest Ian Curtis performances. His language is as sharp as it is blunt, revealing the plain truth through bouts of murky fiction. He's a [...]

Teenage spaceship (Smog Cover) - Sleep Sleep
Teenage spaceship (Smog Cover) - Sleep Sleep Sleep Sleep recorded a second cover ( after January’s Convertible cover ) and once again it is great. Bill Callahan has nothing to do with Spiritualized and Sleep Sleep have nothing to do with Spiritualized but somehow their Teenage Spaceship version reminds me of… Spiritualized. This right here is bad music journalism but also the nicest thing I can imagine saying about a song, ever.
