This band is touring on their 2nd album, Prophet , and they just keep getting better and better. Brent Knopf is formerly from Portland's 'Menomena'. We recently interviewed Brent about the new album.
This track has been bouncing around the internet for a while now, so some of you may have heard it. If not, then you're in for a treat. Ramona Falls (aka Brent Knopf, formerly of Menomena ) has been on many music blog watch-lists for a while now, and the new LP, Prophet , has been receiving rave reviews from just about everyone. The blend of artistic influences demonstrated in songs like "Spore" is breathtaking. It is simultaneously intense and calm, artful and intimidating. I wish I had better words to describe it fully, but my own vocabulary [...]
Género: Art Pop, Indie Rock. La banda del ex Menomena Brent Knopf, Ramona Falls acaba de lanzar su segundo largo, el 1 de mayo, titulado Prophet . Spore , la canción de hoy es su primer single, son esporas, un proceso de división asexual, una brumosa propuesta sonora, elegante, majestuosa, por momentos, liviana, surrealista, y purificadora de almas infectas.

We've already heard "Spore" and now we get sister track "Sqworm" from Ramona Fall's upcoming album Prophet . The album will be Romano Fall's second album but the first since Knopf decided to leave Menomena in order to put all his focus into the new band. We'll see how that works out for him. At the very least this is an album that you'll want to get a hard copy of as you can see from the video below. Ramona Falls - "Sqworm" [...]
Although Mines got some love in the blogosphere, Menomena could still be called one of the more under-appreciated bands of the last decade; they are prolific, dynamic and have a sound that is entirely their own, and yet they seem to slip through the cracks of our sonic consciousness-seriously, when was the last time you opened iTunes so that you could blast a Menomena track? Well, frontman Brent Knopf is taking things in a new direction, playing under a new moniker, Ramona Falls, and following up their 2009 release, Intuit , with an album called Prophet [...]
It's been quite some time since Menomena's former frontman Brent Knopf released his side project's (now his main project) debut album. Intuit received a great deal of praise from all over the internet and even landed itself on my Top Ten Album Covers of 2009 as well as Top Ten Music Videos . Things went a little quiet after that. Menomena did release their album Mines in 2010, with not much acclaim behind it, and announced Brent's departure. With all his attention now on Ramona Falls, Knopf has announced Prophets [...]
[VIDEO] BOBBY - Groggy + Spores BOBBY was started when a circle of college friends in rural Western Massachusetts came together with the goal of creating an album. The project balances interesting male and female vocal arrangements in a folky yet ambient style. The band themselves describe their musical confluence as "a swollen lump of blooming, techno-color spores cast adrift on a warm bed of foam." The video above was shot by the brilliant team over at Yours Truly . Their beautiful single "Spores" which made me fall for them on first listen is below. [...]
Terrific news from the good folks at the MGM Limited Edition Collection -- a first-rate version of The Quatermass Xperiment (aka The Creeping Unknown in its American incarnation, but either way one of the creepiest and most original sci-fi thrillers of the 50s) is just out and at a quasi-bargain price. Tautly directed by Hammer Films stalwart Val Guest (who also did The Abominable Snowman and The Day Earth Caught Fire , two equally memorable B-movie genre classics) the 1958 Quatermass stars Brian Donlevy as [...]
Jetzt also Bobby. 7 Menschen in Massachusetts - das ist alles, was ich in Erfahrung bringen konnte. Gibt es einen typischen Massachusetts-Sound? Dann hätte ich einen Ausgangspunkt gefunden; etwas, womit ich meinen Bericht hätte beginnen können. Aber nichts. So muss ich mich auf die Musik konzentrieren, die mir vorliegt: Ein erstes Album (das den Namen "Bobby" trägt). Eine Debütsingle "Sore Spores", die wie ein zusammengetackerter Mix aus schrägem Pop, einem pfeifenden Syntheziser (der direkt aus einem B-movie entsprungen scheint) beginnt, um kurz darauf in einem hart angeschlagenen Chorus zu münden, der sich gegen Ende wie in Luft auflöst.

![[Indie] Bobby – Sore Spores](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3268195_lg.jpg)
Vermont group Bobby are part of the new wave of folkies that seem to be everywhere. 'Sore Spores' is a gorgeous little track, evocative of old memories and happy days, and sounding like every great indie-pop band from the past, particularly Modest Mouse. But what really puts 'Sore Spores' head-and-shoulders above every other folk group is the guest vocals from the extraordinarily talented Mollie Erin Sarle (of girl-group Mountain Man). With her emotive voice, Mollie lifts the track from psych-folk goodness into essential listening territory. Bobby are a definite band to watch out for in future, and more [...]
Who is BOBBY? According to their bio Bobby is a spiritual guide that coerced the music out of Tom Greenberg. But as far as the band named after a ghost goes they are Tom Greenberg, Martin Zimmermann, Paolo Menuez, Julian Labat, Roby Moulton, and Molly Sarle (of Mountain Man ) who lends her gorgeous vocals to the group. They all currently live in a house [...]
The story of BOBBY is an allusive one. This Montague, MA rock group just signed to Partisan Records . The legend of BOBBY has grown, and with it, comes their self-titled debut LP on 6/21. Although BOBBY has not materialized, he is said to be the group's spiritual guide since starting the project with Tom Greenberg. Rising from the mist is their first cut from the album, "Sore Spores," and what appears before us is a lush garden of floral colors. Behind captivating swirling rhythms gives rise to warm and soothing vocal harmonies taking us on a long and [...]

The Spores were an experimental rock band from California who called it quits in 2008. After trying for five years the band gave up, flogging around second album Doom Pop for more than a year. Is that a bad thing? Not really. Despite all their bragging about a creating a new sound they were a just about average band who invested a lot of time into their stage presence, while they had been better off it they had focused on the music. Sounding like the poor man's Sonic Youth in their melodic guise [...]

Potholes In My Blog
Potholes In My BlogWhen I first came across this track, I was absolutely pumped to see that Molly Sarle of Mountain Man was a key vocal contributor to this new rock-outfit known as BOBBY. While their band biography is rather unclear (humor over function I guess), these guys sure do know how to make some soothing indie jams. By the way, that picture is of Mountain Man, not BOBBY. Anyway, BOBBY will be releasing their self-titled debut on Partisan Records on June 21. Mark that on your calender, it is pretty safe to say that this album is going to make [...]

State Magazine
State MagazineEvolution. It doesn't seem an obvious subject for a computer game, but the makers of Spore obviously weren't following a tried and tested path. In fact, describing Spore as a single game is doing it a bit of a disservice. It's more like five games merged very cleverly into an interactive system, where your behaviour in each of the increasingly complex levels effects how you're able to behave in the next. You start off as a single celled organism, falling from the sky in a meteor, taking your place amongst other cells in [...]
