So, it turns out I neglected a GIMME TINNITUS Tradition. I didn't post my End of the Year Dump . Here is all the stuff I meant to get to last year but for some reason or another just didn't get around to, sorry y'all. But you know what? It makes for a pretty awesome mixtape. Listen. Downloadables: resolution of one (mp3) by guards (d/l the GUARDS ep @ Bandcamp ) Halcyon Days (mp3) by So Cow [...]

The Year End List. I think you can appreciate how we approach the obligatory list that publishes in December. We don't use the words "best" for the end of the Gregorian calendar year wrap, and we don't enumerate the list. Empirically ranking albums with some sort of number designation, coupled with superlatives, really trivializes such a mercurial entity of music. So we don't do that. The Year End List is simply a reflection of albums that provided the most accurate representation of our aesthetics, embodying the songs most likely to receive rotation in the personal ghetto blaster for years to [...]

Here's what hit the Bloggins newswire this weekend... According to his Twitter , Neil Hamburger was forcibly removed from the Reading Festival after only 12 minutes... for his own safety. The crowd didn't take kindly to Hamburger's meta jokes, and Reading, supposedly, was close to a riot (of the non-laughter variety). Glad I'm not a betting man, because I wouldn've put my money on the riots happening at the I Have a Nightmare rally in DC this weekend, not a Neil Hamburger variety show.

Daniel Bejar (Destroyer) Je ne connais pas grand-chose de T.D. Reisert . Sa page MySpace (1135 affichages, 0 amis) indique qu'il viendrait d'Alaska, allez savoir. Il a déjà sorti deux singles, un EP et un album chez 80h Records. Tout ça est téléchargeable gratuitement sur le site du label . "Call this Honest" est le dernier morceau de Alahee (2006), et vous n'aurez aucun mal à comprendre ce qui m'a séduite et fait frissonner en écoutant ce morceau. J'ai failli interrompre plusieurs [...]

As we stand defeated on the battlefield amongst the severed limbs of our inadequate army, a tear rolls down the conspicuously unbloodstained cheek of the God in whose name we just fought. As we find ourselves alone under blacked sky, slain by a ancient conceptual nemesis actually now long gone, we rub salt and vinegar [...]

MPSHOWS.COM & MORECOWBELL.NET PRESENTS WOMEN The debut album by Women was recorded by label-mate Chad VanGaalen over 4 months on ghettoblasters and old tape machines in his basement, an outdoor culvert and a crawlspace. Sometimes light and spacious, at other times eerie and dense with an ominous weight, this self titled album touches upon Velvet Underground, The Zombies or This Heat while not really having any obvious precursors – a lo-fi masterpiece cloaked in layers of vibrato and guitar wash.
