ein weihnachtsmuffel bin ich nicht. da sind die kids vor. aber ich bin gewiss keiner, der das ganze unternehmen auch noch unterstützt und fördert. und auch muss mein blog nicht zu jedem fest- und feiertag mit antreten. das ist eine seuche, dass selbst zu halloween und ostern passende songs gesucht werden müssen, um sie dem gelangweilten leser vors ohr zu brettern. aber - und dies wird sicher keine tradition, obgleich wir auch im letzten jahr dabei waren - ein paar weihnachtshit gilt es zu präsentieren. vorab eine staffel älterer und später, mit vermerkt, die neuen. ois dann, ein frohes [...]
Those Transatlantics are from Michigan and, like so many other Michigan bands, they've contributed to Suburban Sprawl's Christmas releases . (That link there has six years' worth of music, for hours and hours of original and covered Christmas songs. Highly, highly recommended. This is not the only song I'll be posting this month I found on that page.) This song starts out charming and adorable, continues straight down that avenue for a while, then takes a left turn down the boulevard of rocking your ass so hard it falls off your body. It's earned [...]

Talk about dream pop...Those Transatlantics make me think of what the soundtrack to my floating above the clouds experience would sound like. They cite Wilco, the Shins, and the Beatles among their influences, but frankly they make me think more along the lines of Camera Obscura and even the Postal Service. Their debut album, "Knocked Out" came out in March, so I'm a little behind the curve on them. Currently they're working on new songs! I'll be looking forward to seeing what they cook up. Those Transatlantics - The Other Cheek [...]
