Yuni in Taxco - Echoes This song drives like an aimless road trip - meandering and weaving along dusty roads, and not really hitting its stride until yr about a quarter of the way in. You're gonna want to take the trip, especially if you're into the strange waves of, say, Kurt Vile . Their new Prizes LP comes out June 23rd from Havaii Records . Previously: " Stiff Joints "

I don't write too many album reviews any more (life!), but that don't mean I haven't been listening to some cool shit so far in 2011. If you, like me, are wondering just where in the hell this year has gone, then maybe you can take solace in the fact that the glass is half empty. There's still 6 months to go! THUSLY, here are some albums that you should at least slightly consider listening to, based on my esteemed, well-worn historical opinions. Kinda organized in descending fashion, and, no, I didn't think the list would [...]

Country Dave Harmoson of the Lost High Rollers ::: photo by Josh Lovseth KEXP is giving Seattle residents a mighty fine reason, lots of them actually, to set up camp in Ballard early Friday morning and stay all day and all night. During their last pledge drive it was Ballard who came through in the clutch, [...]
Man, I meant to post this ages ago, but LIFE got in the way. I hate when it does that. Oh wait, no I don't...I love having a life, cuz then all those jerks who say "GET A LIFE!" are thoroughly rebuked when they discover that I ALREADY HAVE ONE. Joke's on them. Anyway, Yuni in Taxco : Seattle guitar pop band with highly-textured shades of a weirdo island life from the 50's as vacationed by Grizzly Bear and a young, sleepy Dick Dale (kinda). Frayed, fuzzed out guitars and shimmering fills of [...]

I first told you about "Tropical Grunge" outfit Yuni in Taxco last December. I liked them then and I like them even more now. Why? Because they have a whole new album ( Sanpaku ), and that is more of them to love. Just like kids that wear Husky sized jeans from Sears, just ask my mom!!! I am also no closer to knowing what their band name means. It might say something about that on their bio but I never learned how to read good. Check out a couple of tracks of the [...]

Each month Skatterbrain features a monthly mix, and I absolutely love the covers. The cover for Blogophilia 23 is my feeble attempt at deriving inspiration from Skatterbrain. I try… It's hard to believe a whole month has passed by since the last Blogophilia post. This month's mix has songs featured on the Dadada by the Charming Youngsters, The Red River, Wildlife, Lykee Li, The Rest, and The Foreign Films. There are also new tracks from the Decemberists, Say Hi, The Heavy, The Tallest Man on Earth, [...]
Yuni in Taxco -Sad Sack of Sh*t Three things Contrary to the song title it's actually a pretty poppy song. I don't know what the bands name means. They're from Seattle. There is this infusion of 60s pop with Latin tropical rhythmic influences. Just a really solid and some what matured sound that leave you happy you listened. SO GET HAPPY
Ume (back in 2008) ::: photo by Josh Lovseth Pop quiz, hotshot. If you're in a touring band, what is one of the most difficult days of the year to pack a venue? Christmas? Sure, I might give you that. As what can accurately be described as a Christian nation, our entire society shuts down on [...]
