Getting older is hard. Forget about the simple inconveniences; the shock of a hangover from two or three beers, premature balding or extra weight around the midsection. What I'm talking about is the inevitable reality that life almost never works out the way you expect it to, and the love that seemed endless and all encompassing years ago, slowly but surely turns to loss. For Salteens front man Scott Walker, that loss was physical (the passing of his father) and mental (caring for his mother as her memories faded into a cloud of confusion as a result of [...]
A short mix but some exceptionally choice tracks this week. I'll let you pick out which ones you think they are: 1. Salteens - Last Train From London A nice slice of Mod pop smashed with a Burt Bacharach-esque horn arrangement. 2. Baron Bane - Orchids Speaking of a retro feel, this sounds like a remixed track from a 702s film soundtrack. Delightful. 3. The Concretes - All Day By the [...]
Today is just one of those days where I needed a nice dosage of sweet straight-ahead pop tunes. Don't you ever have those days? Well, I first caught wind of the Salteens because I'm weird and I followed the Yo Gabba Gabba tour, as far as bands playing, and I was fortunate enough to come across these kids. They've got a new record out this week titled Grey Eyes , and its full of great guitar pop. If you, like me, had a [...]
Michael Lavine When Guided By Voices announced they were calling it a day back in Summer of 2004, I marked the occasion with a tribute cover of the week which basically consisted of me scraping together all of the GBV covers I could find and tossing them onto the internet (where they mostly came from in the first place). So it seems appropriate that as Guided By Voices have reunited and will play tonight as the grand finale of Matador at 21 in Las Vegas, I should bust out some/most of [...]
My first exposure to The Salteens was on Yo Gabba Gabba . Yes - I find new music from Children's television shows. The songs was good enough for me to find out a little more about The Salteens, so I checked out their album, Moths, and it was very good. Our friends over at One Track Mind have posted a new MP3 by The Salteens, so if you haven't yet dug into these guys, here's your opportunity.

Given the volume of music available for consideration on One Track Mind, we invariably have to pass on a lot of tasty morsels. [tweetmeme] In a desire to share even more great, free music with you, the Sunday Sampler offers a handful of tracks without the usual critical and biographical write-up. Less talk, more tunes. The Salteens "If Love Is Gone Where Do We Go from Here" from Grey Eyes [ to be [...]
Vancouver twee pop outfit the Salteens are back after a lengthy absence. Having not released an album since 2003, they put out an EP back in the spring, followed by another EP last week. They'll be issuing a full-length next month. Go to Exclaim! to read my interview with frontman Scott Walker (no, not that one or that one or that one ). Dude was a good interview—it only lasted about fifteen minutes, but that gave me more good quotes than I was able [...]

Jess Baumung By the standards of the inherently attention deficient internet, a year can be an eternity - so it's remarkable that Diamond Rings has not only managed to sustain the interest that began last Summer with the release of his debut single "All Yr Songs", but steadily build it on both sides of the Atlantic with just three singles and accompanying videos. While it took those at home a little while to comprehend that this wasn't just the guy from local rockers The D'Urbervilles in eyeshadow, those abroad [...]
MONDAY: Johnny Mac used potty mouth language in his post, especially when talking about Cee-Lo Green's newest chart-buster, "Fuck You". Shit, now it's my turn. Click here to see what other two bands J. Mac talked about, or scroll down and look at the playlist, but only if you are smart enough to do so.TUESDAY: What's new in the world of Chuck? Nothing apparently. His post is more laden with
Hoy no quiero extenderme mucho, así que sólo les informo que tenemos música nueva de una machera de bandas y además un clásico por parte de Rev-Lons que espero disfruten.

Los canadienses The Salteens se preparan para lanzar Grey Eyes , el 12 de octubre (su segundo álbum en lo que va de 2010). Si el sencillo de ese disco (y que les traemos hoy día) no da abasto, bien pueda descárgue el Mixtape de lo mejor de Abril , que ahí encontrará otra canción de estos muchachos.

BLACK REBEL MOTORCYCLE CLUBThanks to my friend Sam, I found today's first choice, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club after a long night of sifting through music. Once "Beat the Devil's Tattoo" hit my ears, it was inevitable that this song was going to be one third of today's song trifecta. The beat is so catchy and I continue to listen to it as I write this to you. This song is the title track from
Maybe you have a kid or two (like me). Maybe you watch Yo Gabba Gabba (like me). Maybe you've seen The Super Music Friends Show with The Salteens (like me). They play more than just kids' music. In fact, they have a new album coming out in October - Grey Eyes. Sample below. First album for the large band in 7 years. If Love Is Gone Where Do We Go From Here by The Salteens But if you only know them as that band [...]
Apart from writing a couple songs for and appearing on Nickelodeon's Yo Gabba Gabba! , the Salteens have been MIA for the better portion of the last decade. They have not released an album since 2003's Let Go of Your Bad Days , unless you count the Moths EP they released earlier this year. The Vancouver twee pop band will make its full-fledged comeback, however, when its third album Grey Eyes hits the market October 12th on the band's own imprint Boompa . The album will, according to a [...]

Amidst a sea of splashly big releases, Drake takes a shine (pun intended) to "Nothing Hurts", the somewhat under the radar debut LP by Sub Pop's Male Bonding . Drake's Take: New Releases 05.11.10 Still experiencing some technical difficulties (some in part due to Rhapsody's database overhaul), but it's another quality week for releases and so the show must go on. Highly anticipated releases from The National and Jack White's The Dead Weather grab the headlines, but the real find this week is [...]
From the album Moths Seven years ago The Salteens started Boompa Records to put out their sophomore album, Let Go Of Your Bad Days. Since then Boompa has released a lot of other albums while the Salteens have remained largely silent. Moths is an EP is pulled together from a number of Salteens recording sessions that took place during 2007 and 2008. Amidst several attempts at completing a full length album the band was taken off task by numerous personal upheavals, artistic miss-directs, and an appearance [...]
