Much like Future of the Left's "Suddenly a Folk Song," The Phantom Band's "Folksong Oblivion" isn't as much of a folk song, as a song with folksy elements interpreted by a band intent on not writing a folk song.

The Phantom Band releases Checkmate Savage January 27th, 2009 on Glasgow label Chemikal Underground. Recorded in Glasgow at the label's own Chem 19 and then in Franz Ferdinand's Govan facility, this record features Paul Savage of The Delgados as producer, engineer, and guiding force. The recording sessions were like their early jams: long, meandering and experimental; the band beating out rhythms on broken wood blocks and organist Andy's 'shelvaphones', a home-made instrument created from metal shelf brackets. The end result is truly special, bringing to mind the beat savvy of The [...]

Already the PR companies ( those who haven't tried to stuff blogs, that is) are gearing up to promote 2009's big releases.

Sauchiehall Street is the best street in Glasgow, if not the planet. At number 490 is legendary dancing den The Garage , where every student in the city has spent their nights and much of their loans not knowing when to call it a day. Stumble a few doors down to 482 and you'll find post-club Chinese grub at The Noodle Bar and a plethora of guilty pleasures (you can't go wrong with the Szechuan chicken). At 468 is Capitol : part bar, part gig location but, more [...]
