Words by Brendan Pittsburgh is just brimming with good music, and I swear that everyone can find something they'll like here. It's great to have a thriving scene like this but I'll tell you what: it makes narrowing down everything to the "favorite of the favorites" pretty much impossible. I want to just make a list of every Pittsburgh band I listened to this year that you should listen to, but I won't actually do that. (Maybe I'll do that later ...) I stewed and tossed and turned and managed to [...]
Yeah, yeah, the end of the year stuff is coming soon. Jeez, everyone's rushing to be like, "here's my list! here's my list!" - December's not even half over yet people. Whatever. Anyways. Gold Soundz is going a bit more in the weird shit direction of sites like Altered Zones (RIP) and Weird Canada for 2012. Gonna be less pop and folk, more shoegaze, weird indie, etc. This will balance out the Toronto blog scene a bit, with the newly transplanted Weird Canada , Max Mohenu 's excellent [...]
The dudes at Garbage Days have started a label, this split is #2 in their series of digital singles they'll be releasing. ( here's #1 ). It's a pretty awesome split, it's versatile, there's a lot of different sounds. Spirit Night plays a slower jam that wraps up nicely with solid kick drum and a slightly psychedelic Woods-e sq. guitar solo near the end. Bello tears the fucking roof off with Monster, just some really great song writing. Have a listen, grab the Spirit Night Normal EP and hit the jump over to Dave Bello 's site for tracks on tracks [...]
Pittsburgh dreamy indie-poppers Spirit Night got spunk. I like it. (Chews cigar). They released a split digital 73 with some dude named David F. Bello , see. Was released by some cats (or label) callin' 'emselves Garbage Days . It's on the bandcamp . Shmeh. Spirit Night - 25

I remember back in high school when I first heard The Black Giraffe, one of Dylan Balliett's first music projects. The show was at the American Legion just blocks away from where I live in the small town of Marietta. It was a great show, packed with a lot of great bands. The Black Giraffe was one of the first bands on the bill, and I remember being completely blown away, specifically by the two songs 2:24 and Goodbye Jones. On November 15th of last year, Balliett released What We Will [...]
The best featured tracks from the past month are collected and compiled into one file. This month has been very stylistically diverse, along with several debuting artists, so some worthwhile additions are bound to be included on your playlists. Artists include Kula Shaker, Ferraby Lionheart, Big Boi, Tamaryn, Spirit Night, of Montreal, Games, and more.
I started this post over at least five separate times - mainly because Spirit Night's sound defies me to pigeonhole the band into easy categories. It's lo-fi/bedroom/noise, but the songs aren't being permeated by a constant buzz like many of the band's contemporaries are fond of. It's rock in a vein similar to that of [...]
For the thousands of indie-rock cuts recorded in a home studio, the desperate insertion of ambiguity is a common plague. As DIY techniques continue to grow more popular in both rock and hip-hop, some artists are keen on lowering their standards in an effort to make their image that much more captivating. In most instances, [...]
You cannot argue with getting free music in the morning can you? Well, lucky for you I've discovered this killer band from West Virginia named Spirit Night . They sort of remind me of a lot of the lo-fi efforts going around, but they have a lot of strong melodies that really bring the songs to fruition for the listeners. Their album is titled What We Will Be , and its chock full of really solid tracks, all worthy of a good listen this Monday morning. You can get it [...]
Spirit Night is Dylan Balliet from Shepherdstown , West Virginia. I believe I discovered this guy through Whipple when compiling the July list. His album titled "What We Will Be" was just released in May, and you can give a listen to the July playlist track "Bear Costume" below along with a few others dylan just sent my way. If you like what you hear, be sure to head over to his Bandcamp page & give the full album a download. He's offering it for FREE & its definitely worth a listen. [...]
