No Joy is an alternative rock and shoegaze outfit hailing from Montreal. "Junior" has a steady groove that continuously builds in intensity throughout without losing any momentum. The song is sung very softly and is very dreamlike in nature, this in combination with the rock styled jam the two play creates an interesting contrast between the distorted instrumentation and vocals. A contrast like this is able to give the image of multiple layers in a song even though the track itself is fairly simple. There is a clear dynamic between the members, which of course makes the songs progression more appealing. Negaverse EP [...]
Filed under: News Jason Persse for AOL This year's All Tomorrow's Parties was subtitled 'I'll Be Your Mirror,' and on Sunday (Oct. 2), as the three-day festival came to a close, two of the marquee performers seemed like fun-house reflections of each other. One is shy and sensitive, the other brash and unapologetic. One writes aching, abstract songs, the other political tirades. One keeps out of the public eye. The other fronts Public Enemy . [...]
![Contrast – Take One [Album]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3276090_lg.jpg)
Got a new underground Hip-Hop album release for you from the group Contrast . They just dropped their Take ONe album. This group consists of two MC's from California so expect that type of sound but also expect the unexpected. If you are a regular reader of EARMILK than you are aware we are always fans of groups that are trying to make a name for themselves and it doesn't hurt that a lot of those groups make some of the best music. We definitely aren't anti-mainstream but its good to see real music being made in [...]

One of my favourite designers, Mihara Yasuhiro (his website is actually pure pleasure, especially when you click on the video link) from Japan recently came up with his A/W 2011/12 collection. What I like about him and the new collection is his love for contrast , the different weaving techniques and, in terms of style, his tribute to the Beat Generation . When you look at Yasuhiro´s fashion you can easily see the expressionist lifestyle of Allen Ginsberg and William S. Burroughs . The creation of [...]
Uno de esos días en los que todo parece conjugar para que te la pases bien. Comenzando como lo dictan los cánones, desde el momento de ingreso al dichoso recinto un recibimiento digno y mas fluido de lo que uno esperaba dadas las deprimentes aglomeraciones que se formaban en los eventos pasados y la agonizantes colas que esto provocaba.Después Toy Selectah al puro estilo regio y su tribal
It's great to live in a city where local music continues to blossom, and we have yet another new band to introduce to you today. Technically, Walk The Moon are not "new" and have been rising for awhile now, but they are about to hit a big milestone this weekend with their first official album release. Walk The Moon have already garnered praise around Cincinnati for their energetic live show, and now that they have laid it all down for this album, it won't be long before more well deserved praise starts flowing in. [...]

With latest single "Coming Back To Life," the Contrast brings you a sci-fi anthem that anyone can appreciate for its sophisticated musicianship. Led by Glasgow native David Reid, the U.K. group layers theremin, mellotron and other strings over kooky drum beats and wiry electric guitars to create a deceptively poppy and danceable tune with influences [...]
The Contrast - God of Malfunction Release date: April 13, 2010 [ amazon.com ] I have a 2010 Salvador Dali calendar, and May features this work of his, called The Temptation of St. Anthony . That calendar really bothers me because it has all the Sundays at the end of the week, not the beginning. I blame Insane Clown Posse .
The ever-missed John Peel used to theorise that any record with birdsong on it would probably be automatically good. (The title track of Bridget St. John 's Ask Me No Questions , which Peelie produced and released on his Dandelion label, even takes a break at the end for an interval of church bells and hand-picked birdsong clips from the BBC Archives). i sort of feel the same about records with the sound of barking dogs on. i will pretty much always listen to a track that features a dog [...]
Some names connote achievement, like Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods, and Michael Phelps (all right, achievement marinated in bong water, but still). Other names have a plastic, pubescent stench, like New Kids on the Block, Miley Cyrus, and The Backstreet Boys, whose name lives on as a linguistic stick to bash the cheesy, the substance-less, the teen-propelled, and the harmless.
If you aren't so angry your head is about to explode, you haven't been paying attention. If you aren't laughing so hard your head is about to explode, you don't have a sense of humor. More words on different subjects later. Life is overwhelming and very exciting.
