Lake Song You Are Summer Wind The folks over at Soliti Records have released the tune 'Lake Song,' which is a sneak peek at the upcoming debut LP from Finland's Black Twig entitled Paper Trees and due out in January, 2012 (it's already 2012?...jesus). Anyways, the new song is a [...]

by teepoo Siskiyou have released another record this month called Keep Away the Dead quite appropriate since this is the month of Halloween. The group was originally a duo consisting of Great Lake Swimmers members Colin Huebert and Erik Arnesen but have grown to include other full time members: Shaunn Watt and PeterCarruthers. Here's a track off the new one with Colin Huebert's distinctive vocals. The lovely saxophone is played by Colin Stetson. Too many Colins haha. It's the only track to have horn [...]
I've been keeping my eye on Soliti Music , the label that released the Big Wave Riders EP earlier this year. Just the other day they unleashed this excellent gem from Black Twig. The group is gearing up for a January release of their album, Paper Trees , and I've been pretty impressed with what I've heard so far. It reminds me a lot of The Mary Onettes , but just a touch more fog coating the [...]
Siskiyou - Twigs And Stones
« Je n'emploie pas le mot génie très souvent, mais là je pense qu'il est approprié. Max fait partie de ces gens qui peuvent faire des tas de choses, et peu importe ce qu'il touche, c'est toujours génial... que se soit dans le métier d'acteur, de compositeur ou même quand il fait l'imbécile. Cela s'explique par l'intensité et le bon goût qu'il y met. Son style musical est proche de celui de Jean Claude Vannier. Il est un des ces très rares artistes à être formidable aussi bien maintenant que lorsqu'il aura cinquante ou soixante-dix ans. » [...]
![[Listen] – Siskiyou – "Twigs And Stones"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3683572_lg.jpg)
Tweet Siskiyou will be putting out " Keep Away The Dead " on October 4, one of the more promising albums of 2011. Comprised of Great Lake Swimmers members Colin Huebert and Erik Arnesen who are now stepping away from the duo aspect that has been Siskiyou up to this point and adding full-time members Shaunn Watt and Peter Carruthers to the dynamic. The shift feels natural and is an obvious positive step for these guys. "Twigs And Stones" also features Colin [...]

Wow! I wasn't expecting something new from Siskiyou . Having seen them play in Ottawa in March . I would have thought it was like a one time thing or when Erik would be going back with new Great Lake Swimmers material. This song is far different from their debut album. More upbeat and Colin Stetson helps out on this track. Listen to the new song Twigs and Stones from the upcoming album Keep Away The Dead which drops October 4th on Constellation records . [...]
Siskiyou is preparing to release their sophomore effort, Keep Away the Dead and Twigs and Stones is the first single to whet our appetites for the group's new music. The third track off the upcoming release was made available a few weeks and it's been burning in the back of my consciousness since Sam at Folk Hive featured it. It's got a pleasant acoustic intro that doesn't hint to much at the onset. Wait for it. Listen to the horn arrangements. Colin Stetson contributes trumpet, trombone, french horn and sax on [...]

Ok, it's Thursday and we're back on our regular Video Hits grind (a lot of people on the internet describe their internetting with various uses of "grind", so I thought I'd try it - not a successful trial I don't think) with our usual eclectic selection of Canadian clips. We posted " Doom Beach " from MTL's Reversing Falls early this year , and I'm a fan of the song, so I was happy to put their new video for it up. And what a video it is. There's a lot [...]
Here's a story for you: This morning I woke up 3 and a half hours later than I have in months. I allowed myself that, as I'm still in recovery mode from the house show we hosted Sunday night and because fuck it, I'm on vacation, I do what I want. I stumbled out of bed, fired up the coffee pot, and stared at the butterflies attacking the Mimosa tree out the kitchen window while said coffee brewed. Now I'm back in bed, resting my laptop where it [...]
Siskiyou is now prepping their sophomore release, Keep Away the Dead (October 4), fresh of the heels of their debut last September.

So Cold 5. Revolution Blues 6. Dear Old Friend 7. Not the Kind 8. Fiery Death 9. Sing Me to Sleep [...]
MP3 Siskiyou is a Canadian quartet that's readying to drop a second album via Constellation Records . The band's approach to folk and folk rock has always been an experimental one, but this album sounds like it'll be sporting a much bolder sound. On "Twigs and Stones," Colin Huebert's vocals sound much more fragile and vulnerable, reminding me a bit of Spencer Krug's voice , actually. Some joyous horn arrangements provided by Colin Stetson subtly introduce themselves and explode with the rest of the instrumentation perfectly. His fluttering sax runs [...]

Judging from my reaction to hearing this track, I'm not sure if I was ready for these lyrics. When you filter through as many emails as I do everyday, it's nice to sometimes hear something completely different. A Band of Buriers is an English alternative folk band that blends folk and alternative rap elements together - Admit, you're already intrigued... Their unique acoustic sound encompasses dreamy melodies and intense string reverberations with abstract and imaginative poetry woven throughout. Hear the track and find out more info on the other side. Trust me when [...]

Photo by Mark Peckmezia For those not familiar with the music of Toronto's Slim Twig who is signed to Paperbag Records . It is basically a one man musician by Max Turnbull . I haven't seen him live but somewhat heard some buzz about it. Not just a musician, he is also a actor too. Apparently he was in the movie " The Tracy Fragments " with Ellen Page. Slim Twig will be playing a show in Ottawa on June 4th. [...]
According to Visitation Rites , "word on the street is that U.S. Girls mastermind Meghan Remy recently relocated to Mississippi". She'll be releasing a split 12" with Toronto's Slim Twig (a.k.a.

You can check out U.S. Girls' new, more hi-fi track "If These Walls Could Talk" below as well as her upcoming tour dates with Brooklyn's Noveller, which will be making a stop in Philly on Sunday, June 12 at Hong Kong Garden. - The Deli Staff [...]

Συνεπείς στο ραντεβού μας και με τον Οκτώβρη, έστω και την τελευταία στιγμή. 1. Gauntlet Hair - Out, Don't [zs] Νέο καταπληκτικό track για το δίδυμο από το Denver . Έχουν κυκλοφορήσει μόλις ένα single [στο εξαιρετικό label της Forest Family Records ] κι όμως εδώ στήνουν ένα αξιοθαύμαστα ώριμο wall of sound, που, έστω και αν θυμίζει αρκετά τους Animal Collective , παραμένει ένα εντυπωσιακό επίτευγμα.
