It may be getting dark now, but this morning was one of those days where I began to question my decision to put the office in a North-facing room. Really, when it's this sunny I just want to be able to enjoy the sunshine. Mind you, I wouldn't be able to read my computer screen, but that strikes me as a very small price to pay. I am getting ready to go to Austin this week, leaving the house, the cats, the label and this weekend's Ides of Toad gig in the hands of young Ian. What, I [...]
Chi avrebbe mai detto che i Vaselines sarebbero passati da qui? La loro storia è fatta di incontri occasionali, ripartenze e piccole grandi soddisfazioni: un minitour italiano come questo, il primo dal 1987, non è cosa da mancare. Eugene Kelly e Frances McKee negli anni Duemila sembrano aver recuperato la voglia di fare e una certa convinzione, proprio quello che mancava loro più di vent'anni fa, quando, con due roventi EP e un solo disco all'attivo, decidevano di sciogliersi per non confrontarsi con l'insuccesso. La gloria a seguire è storia: Kurt Cobain [...]
"I'll never trust who doesn't go / to an Eugene Kelly show", o qualcosa del genere, cantavano i Tunas, molti anni fa. Ho sempre pensato fosse una grande verità. Ogni volta che parlo dei Vaselines non posso fare a meno di tirare fuori l'aneddoto di quella volta che Eugene Kelly aprì un concerto dei Belle & Sebastian al Vox, e la gente distratta, senza riconoscere quel signore dai capelli grigi sul palco, credeva che Jesus Don't Want Me For a Sunbeam fosse una cover dei Nirvana. Episodio esemplare che può riassumere abbastanza bene la [...]
La band fondata da Eugene Kelly e Frances McKee. attiva dal 1986 e amatissima da Kurt Cobain e tornata sulle scene grazie a Sub Pop nel 2009 arriva inItalia con una formazione del tutto esclusiva, ad accompagnare Eugene e Frances ci saranno infatti Bobby Kildea e Stevie Jackson dei Belle & Sebastian; è un'occasione per non perdere la storica band scozzese dal vivo, il cui ultimo album (lo ricordiamo) risale al 2010 e si intitola "set with an X" Ecco le date dei Vaselines in Italia: Mercoledì 25 Gennaio 2012 - Roma, Angelo Mai [...]

Typically, I dislike Thanksgiving. This is mostly due to the company I'm surrounded by, excluding my immediate family. Maybe If I was better at small talk, the last Thursday in November would be a trifle more pleasant. But alas! Empty pleasantries are not my thing. Oh, if only I could drown all useless conversations in the sweet, sweet sounds of The Vaselines. The Vaselines consists of Glaswegians Frances McKee and Eugene Kelly. The pair parted ways in 1990, but reunited in 2008, releasing an album in 2010. I recently purchased Enter the Vaselines , a compilation of [...]

This year - 2011, if you forgot - marks the 20 th anniversary of the release of Nirvana 's Nevermind . As with all such moments, reissues, tributes, and all kinds of analysis and discussion will spring from the well. I don't recall this much fuss when The White Album turned 20. I am not here to fellate Kurt Cobain, Nirvana, or their legacy, nor am I here to kick them in the balls. Let me say for the record that I do like Nirvana. I was just never one of those kids [...]
![[Introducing] – TEENS](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3701050_lg.jpg)
Tweet From Boise, Idaho, come garage poppin', surf rockin' TEENS . But if this is garage-pop, it's a little dirtier, a lot more lo-fi; if this is surf-rock, it's about as close to surf rock as Beat Happening ever got, which is to say, I'm glad they went in another direction. Though they list their direct influences as the 13th Floor Elevators, The Animals, The Byrds and The Zombies, I was grateful that the sound doesn't immediately give it away. TEENS have a [...]
I've gone high concept this week, and that is not a reference to this week's cover art which is by my friend Davie Kaufmann. No, I mean there's a gimmick: all the songs on Summer Fridays 4.10 are less than two minutes long. All 33 of them (maybe even 34). With this kind of criteria, we don't really have much in the way of new music (two songs by my count) but quality remains high of course. I've tried to vary it up as much as possible because the bulk of the two-minutes-or-less songs in my collection are of the [...]
Ya sabemos que cada tanto Spin saca algún disco exclusivo para recomendar bandas nuevas, hacer compilados especiales o directamente rendir el correspondiente homenaje a algún conjunto que en esa oportunidad se lo merezca. Siguiendo los lineamientos del último caso, la publicación sacará el 26 de julio, dentro de escasos días, un disco exclusivo en el cual diversas bandas realizan un cover de alguna de las canciones del emblemático disco que, pasados ya algunos años - 20, para ser terriblemente precisos -, cambió el lugar de la música independiente dentro del [...]
Hi, Everyone! I'm finally back from the dissertation-/conference-/baco n-hangover-induced departure from blogging, and I've decided to catch up old-school. So, in the spirit of the blog's past, here's a quick round-up of some of the things we missed while I was away. Come on in to see and hear Wye Oak, Telekinesis, St. Vincent, and more! While I was away, M83 announced their new double album Hurry Up, We're Dreaming (out Oct. 18th), and released the first track "Midnight City:" Midnight City by [...]
