After last year's amazing self-titled homage to Dinosaur Jr , Pavement , Superchunk , Yo La Tengo , Teenage Fanclub , etc., etc., they've now apparently moved to (or taken a slight [...]

MP3: Strangers in Daylight - Forsythe MP3: Howler - Back of Your Neck Letters of Transit , the debut album from Strangers in Daylight, has been the most pleasant surprise so far this year when it comes to Columbus releases. I'll just state what I said in a recent Other Paper review : " Letters of Transit represents a change in direction from the original spy-rock vision of Strangers, trading in trippy, Pink Floyd tunes for a hook-driven, Britpop base...

Nana B sings a song I think most people in Columbus can relate with . You've been hanging out with someone for 8 months. You need to get rid of them. But they don't take the hint. I think this especially works for Spring. You started dating someone in the winter cause that's a natural thing to do. The nice weather hits about the same time you realize they are insane. You just need them to get the away from you. Jay Swifa of Fly Union provides smooth production for "Crazy Baby" [...]
