Ruby Hornet![[Video] Vell: "Fall Back" feat Lockness Monsta](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4203577_lg.jpg)
"you spitting hot shit, family? I don't recall that." Here's a new video from Chicago's Vell, off his early 2012 release, Grinding Against The Grain . This beat is nasty, and both Vell and Lockness Monsta shine on their verses, making me dig the music a little bit more than the actual video. This one is worth checking out though, as well as going back to Vell's earlier release. Check it below.

Another variety show, no particular theme. It was set to be a sunny weekend, and that meant hitting the road. After a late Friday night at the station, I woke up early, grabbed my bike and went on a solid 10 mile ride. It was the first of the sort for 2012; the first of many. I need to get in shape for the 200 mile Seattle to Portland ride in July. Just about half way, I paused to snap the shot above. The Skagit Valley is known [...]

We've been doing up the floors in our house, stripping out the carpet, repainting the walls, painting the trim and doors, and laying down a rich brown woven bamboo (hence the lateness of this post and the general lack of posts this week). It's a project that should add equity to our house and, one day, our pockets. I threw this playlist together Friday morning and set to work stripping carpet from the hallway while it played in the background. Then I threw on some vinyl and rounded out the [...]

So this is it, the first FensePost Podcast. A few weeks ago I sat down and compiled a mix of various songs; some new, some old, most finding some relation to garage rock or garage pop. Hence the title, From The Garage . The theme is loose, so some bands fit and some don't. There are sixteen songs total here, stemming from local Seattle and Portland acts on across the world. New Zealand, Sweden, Canada... you get the picture. Enough banter - listen to the FenseCast already. [...]

Fensepost![Vells: In The Hours [7-Inch Single Review]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2264542_lg.jpg)
When I say that some of my favorite bands start with the letter V, I am not kidding. On FensePost, there are many reviews of Voxtrot—a near comprehensive collection of their recorded works. One band, however, that I list among my favorites (pre-Voxtrot) and that you have likely not seen or heard until now is Seattle's very own Vells . While most groups write songs with hints of sadness and give them an upbeat instrumental backing, Vells do the opposite. The songs are happy, sometimes joyous, but [...]

Seattle band Vells 's EPK says that "Vells have managed to fuse light and dark into a visceral musical experience that's good for the soul." I don't know if that's 100% true, but I think it's safe to say that, in the press photo above, they at least seem like they're capable of that.
