By Carrie Brownstein And it's naptime. ( courtesy of The Patton Veterinary Hospital ) It's hard to believe that we've reached the end. For the past two weeks, all of us -- the NPR Music Team, a handful of outside contributors and myself -- have explored the last 10 years in music. Did we cover [...]

by BBG Nader Sadek at Mayhem ( more by Paul Birman ) Ever since the Mayhem show at Irving Plaza earlier this year , I've wondered about the shadowy costume figure that set up Atilla's stump/podium and mounted heads on spears before they took the stage. Turns out it was performance artist, and Mayhem stage designer, Nader Sadek , who will perform his new piece at Santos Party House on Saturday (11/21) . B'doun [...]

Hace un par de meses The Cinematics publicaban su segundo álbum Love And Terror, con el que la banda está reeditando el éxito cosechado con su trabajo anterior "A Strange Education". El grupo se formó en Glasgow en el año 2003, siendo inicialmente sus componentes Scott Rinning (voz, guitarra), Adam Goemans (bajo), Ramsay Miller (guitarra) y Ross Bonney (batería). En el año 2005 ficharon por el sello TVT Records, siendo su primer disco producido por personas de bastante renombre como Simon Barnicott (Arctic Monkeys, Kasabian, Editors, [...]
The band's return to Glastobury was 2009's highlight...

Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News , UK The Sunday night headlining gig at this summer's Glastonbury Festival by reformed Britpop godheads Blur has been declared the Best Headline Performance of 2009 at this year's UK Festival Awards. And, adding a cherry to the band's year, singer Damon Albarn (pictured) also bagged the Festival Fitty gong at the awards ceremony which was held at the O2 in London yesterday (Nov. 19). Blur's headline slot topped what many festival-goers considered to [...]
El próximo 11 de enero saldrá a la venta Contra , el segundo disco de Vampire Weekend . Y como seguramente falta poco tiempo para que se filtren a Internet más canciones -o el disco entero, en su defecto-, los oriundos de Nueva York se adeltantaron a los hechos y decidieron lanzar el video de 'Cousins', primer sencillo del mismo, dirigido por Garth Jennings (que ha dirigido, entre otros videoclips, Pumping on Your Stereo -de Supergrass- y Coffee & TV -de Blur-). Disfruten. [Vía: You Ain't No Picasso ]
'blur those lines' - me agrada essa idéia de não ter fronteiras. Tim burton conta de como se interessou em desenhar, isso ainda na escola, e que teve a sorte em ter uma professora de arte que deixava as crianças livres para rabiscar e criar o seu próprio estilo. Muitas pessoas desanimam em desenhar, justamente porque o professor diz que o aluno não sabe e que existe um jeito certo e blá blá blá. Eu tive essa sorte também, principalmente no primário com a tia ciça. E nas escolas do [...]
Sending Letters to Sea is a new collaborative music project initiated by the internationally renowned visual artist and musician Mark Garry consisting of the hugely talented Nina Hynes, Electro/acoustic composer Karl Him (also of A=Apple), French classically trained pianist Fabien Leseure, choral / electronic musician Eileen and jazz percussionist Sean Carpio. This new group is launching their "very spacey and soundtracky" vinyl/CD package which was commissioned by Fingal County Council tonight at 8pm in St. Columba's Church , Swords, Dublin. The group was supported by the talents of Geaspar Warfield on Cello [...]
I Vampire Weekend hanno deciso di rendere più tollerabile l'attesa di "Contra", il loro nuovo album in uscita il prossimo 12 gennaio. Se questi 'assaggi' ci aiutano a sopportare il tempo che manca, generano contemporaneamente anche una grande aspettativa. Con "Horchata" in download gratuito e i brani diffusi solo durante i live , avevano già chiarito bene quale direzione prenderà il successore del debutto omonimo. Ora è la volta di "Cousins", il secondo singolo -disponibile solo in digitale su XL - e il relativo video. Diretto dal grandissimo Garth [...]

Known for his highly literate lyrics on his solo work, along with his time spent in the Auteurs and Black Box Recorder, Luke Haines has a new album out called 21st Century Man . Jarvis Cocker's oddly priapic solo release this year, Further Complications , was mostly disappointing, but for those looking for a witty, smart and musical Cocker-like album for 2009, they should definitely check out Mr. Haines' new work. Neil Young wrote Southern Man as an anti-slavery missive about the American South, and with his new album, Haines [...]

Bad Lieutenants Keitel, Sumner & Herzog New Order Jetstream Bad Lieutenant Sink or Swim At a certain point in time, Bernard Sumner turned the corner as a songwriter and started writing the sort of uplifting songs that sound like they'd sync perfectly with time-lapsed images of planes landing, people streaming through night markets, and bold new companies offering us exciting [...]

De a pocos se van sumando más medios a publicar sus listas con lo mejor de la década, anteriormente revisábamos la lista de la norteamericana Pitchfork con 200 posiciones que escogió como disco de la década a Kid A de Radiohead, ahora es turno de la NME y aunque últimamente ya no tenga la influencia de antes, resulta más que interesante revisar la decisión del staff de la publicación británica. Es conocido el impulso que ha logrado dar la NME a la nueva música británica, no han querido parecer distintos en su lista ya [...]

It's Twisted Folk who put together this year's highly successful collaboration between UK pastoral pop group Tunng and Malawian desert bluesmen Tinariwen . Who assembled Nina Nastasia, Jeffrey Lewis and William Elliot Whitmore for an [...]

Tempo di classifiche di fine anno anche per NME , la prestigiosa -e controversa- rivista britannica. Votata dalla redazione e da una selezione di musicisti e addetti ai lavori, arriva la classifica dei 100 migliori album del decennio che sta per finire. Tra i giurati: gli Arctic Monkeys, Carl Barat, i The Killers, Jarvis Cocker, Pete Doherty, gli Elbow, Johnny Marr, gli MGMT, Ian Brown, i The Big Pink, Snoop Dogg, Alan McGee, gli Yeah Yeah Yeahs e molti altri. Qualche sorpresa. Un gruppo inglese (i Libertines ) è stato scalzato dal podio da [...]
Sad news in more ways than one - NYC duo Holy Ghost! have canceled their Australian tour due to the untimely death of close friend and former bandmate Jerry Fuchs. It sucks we won't get to see them live but it's completely understandable and we hope the boys are fit to tour Australia sometime soon. Which brings us to the most perfect music video segue in Pedestrian's short history. UPDATE: Alex and Nick from Holy Ghost! have released the following statement... Last week our dear [...]
Music brag NME has crowned The Strokes' debut album 'This is It' as the best album of the decade. As the naughties come to a close NME (and a long list of music experts) voted for what they thought are the best 100 albums of the decade. With the concluding list spanning artists from Jay-Z to Johnny Cash and a few unexpected ones in between. The New York rockers beat off the likes of Primal Scream's 'XTRMNR' and 'Up The Bracket' by The Libertines to take the holy grail. Mike Skinner must be [...]
