Back in 1997 Anthony Lovett and Matt Maranian wrote and published what eventually became my favorite Los Angeles guidebook. That book's name was (and is) LA Bizarro . A few years ago on this website I talked to Matt about the original book's undertaking ( fun interview with Matt here ). Since that time the two authors have now revised, updated and significantly expanded that original tome, and their collective output was published by Chronicle Books just this fall. In the 2009 updated edition of LA Bizarro (available at the time of this [...]

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, [...]

A couple weeks after Neko Case 's Middle Cyclone claimed the top slot of the Amazon editors' version of 2009's top 100 albums , the Virginia-born case hit the Late Night with Jimmy Fallon stage to perform the album's single, "Red Tide." The part-time New Pornographers member and solo artist is currently on the final leg of her current U.S. tour, hitting the American Southwest before she departs for Australia. Neko Case - Red Tide (Live on Fallon)
Contrast Podcast recently asked music bloggers like myself to submit our favorite 50 songs of the year for their annual "Festive 503 podcast. Our selections were then compiled into a shortlist and now we've been asked to recruit votes to narrow it down. For the curious, I've bolded the 10 songs I personally voted for. I really, really want "Nice Very Nice" by Kurt Vonnegut & Dave Soldier (from their album Ice-9 Ballads ) to make the final list. Not only because it's my favorite song of the year, from my favorite album of the year, [...]
After topping the Amazon Editors' Best Albums Of 2009 list, Neko Case took a victory lap, performing a loose, pitch-perfect "Red Tide" for Jimmy Fallon last night. We've mentioned previously how good Case and her band sound live , so even though Middle Cyclone came out last March, she might as well prove she can sound great on every Late Night program. (And, in the process, make a case -- sorry -- that bad Late Night sound can't always be blamed on the techs.) Continue reading Neko Case Brings "Red Tide" [...]

Matter of Time mp3 The Leisure Society The Sleeper ..... ..... buy it Well, now this is getting interesting...

As we close in on Miller Time around these parts, here's a round up of a few of the day's top stories that for one reason or another your humble editors considered-but ultimately rejected-for individual posts today. ― Authorities search for robbers who made a Gold Line getaway God bless, The News. Never one to let the small details of the story pass up a good catchy alliterative headline. If you actually read the story, you will see that the crime was a stolen cellphone [...]

One of the best things about making mixes based on a theme is discovering songs in your own collection. In making my Halloween mix, I came across this promo mp3 from the Horrors second album, Primary Colours , which was released in May. If you went only by a 30-second sample, you might dismiss it as a rip-off of Echo and the Bunnymen-the same guitar-driven, muddy shoegaze and deep-voiced vocals. But "Sea Within a Sea" has a seven-minute arc, and things happen in that time that overcome that first impression. At about the 4-minute mark, [...]

It has become a worldwide cult, and whether you're Team Edward or Team Jacob (I'm all for the Cullen), one thing's for sure, you'll be seeing New Moon, the second instalment of the Twilight saga, in cinemas in this week (squeel!). Of course, I can't give you a head's up on the actual film yet, but one thing I can tell you, Twilighters, is how AWESOME New Moon's soundtrack is going to be. If there was an award for the coolest movie soundtrack, like, ever - this record would have to win, hands down. The CD is filled [...]

La scorsa settimana abbiamo terminato il nostro viaggio attraverso gli album più importanti del decennio che si sta concludendo. Abbiamo quindi pensato di riassumere il tutto in questo post che non è altro che la lista completa, tappa per tappa, degli album che di volta in volta abbiamo approfondito, in modo tale da avere una sorta di indice delle varie puntate. Dopo il salto trovate anche la listona di tutti gli album che di anno in anno sono stati inseriti fra "gli album da salvare". [...]
Wochenlang habe ich auf den perfekten Zeitpunkt gewartet, um das neue Editors Album zu hören. Zum ersten Mal seit Tagen ausgeschlafen, wagte ich heute Morgen einen vorsichtigen Blick aus dem angekippten Fenster. Grauer Himmel, Nieselregen, geschätzte fünf Grad über Null. Da war er ja endlich, der perfekte Moment. Dementsprechend bestand die erste Amtshandlung des Tages aus der Digitalisierung des Albums und des Übertragung auf meinen IPod. Keine zehn Minuten später spazierte ich im strömenden Regen ziellos an einer stark frequentierten Stadtstraße entlang. Eine dunkle, vorher kaum getragene Regenjacke schützte mich [...]

photo Kurtis Interruptus Hot Chip - Down With Prince I absolutely loved this article on Prince by Nick Kent, you can kind of just feel around the edges of what an absolute eccentric that he was. Case in point, the article's talking about how Prince has always exercised absolute control over every interview that he agrees to do (there've been very few throughout the span of his career) and so as a result, all these 80s journalists are trying to [...]

Following the long awaited announcement last week regarding the Yeah Yeah Yeahs' sideshows, it seemed as good as time as ever to do a quick little summary of the billion or so gigs that are happening over this year's summer festival season.
