der start in die mp3 runde dieses tages mit herzerfrischender härte, rottiger kühle: "action in the north atlantic" heißt das werk der band aus halifax (auf noyes records ), tobendes meer, gute und passende vorstellung: a history of - action in the north atlantic a history of - dagger woods klingt wie eine mischung aus 22 pistepirkko und the cure, naja, jedenfalls ein ausblick auf das im januar erscheinende "teen dream", im übrigen wie verrückt das ist: die promofirma [...]

One thing that's missing from today's crop of folk singers is a darker, Leonard Cohen -ish edge. And American singer-songwriter Emily Jane White recaptures the more miserable end. Don't believe me? Here's what she says: "I don't write happy music. I'm drawn to writing sad songs. Reflective, contemplative songs. I truly believe that's my job. I'm okay with that." Well, so am I, especially if they sound as wonderful as lead track "Victorian America," which can be heard on her yet-to-be-released-in-North America CD Victorian America , as well as my latest JeffMix podcast [...]

Emily Jane White's melancholy and dusty Americana is an unexpected surprise on a label that is better known for being home to acts like Merzbow and Acid Mothers Temple, but it was easy to see why Important Records wanted to put this out once I heard it. Dark Undercoat is an often powerful and mesmerizing debut.
Bonjour, bonjour ! On va se la jouer relativement éclectique cette semaine, en essayant de faire au mieux pour vous ravir les oreilles... Commençons tout doux avec une folkeuse californienne qui vient de faire paraître Victorian America , son deuxième album. Non, il ne s'agit pas d'Alela Diane, mais d'Emily Jane White. Moins dépressif que Dark Undercoat , ce deuxième opus reste mélancolique mais est plus consistant en terme d'arrangements et d'orchestration. Une production plus léchée, moins brute de décoffrage pour un album magique, envoutant et probablement intemporel... [...]

Photos by: Agata Kamler Wednesday night isn't your typical marquee night when it comes to going to see a show. Let's face it.. it's the middle of the week and your probably getting beat up at work, but those who were vigilant enough to strike it out to the Hemlock on Wednesday were treated to a all-around fantastic night of music. First off, Osage Orange from Vermont took the stage. A bunch of horns and an accordion played accompaniment to the usual guitar, bass, drum. The band sounded like something out of [...]
mit "victorian america" legt emily jane white ihr zweites album vor. nachdem sich "dark undercoat" langsam zum grower entwickelt hatte, der immer wieder neu aufgelegt werden musste, zuletzt bei important records mit bonus track, war es schlichtweg an der zeit, dem geneigten fan etwas aktuelles vorzulegen. nun geschehen. und mit allergrößter sorgfalt. griff der erstling in gänze mit kühler hand nach den eingeweiden, spulen sich die tracks auf "victorian america" nicht so ohne weiteres ab. höchste konzentration verdient jedes einzelne lied, weil es mit bedacht arrangiert und wie ein stück keramik in die hände des käufers dem hörer [...]

Singer-songwriter Lucinda Williams discusses her music career with Greg Kot at Turn It Up . "There was no money in my family," Williams says. "My dad was supportive of me creatively, but he had so much trouble as a poet making a living, he wanted me to have something to fall back on. And he was right, because I didn't have a damn thing to fall back on. So I had to do this, because I didn't have any other skills. I gave college a try, at the University of Arkansas, studying [...]

Chris Garneau - "We Don't Try" (La Blogotheque session) For a guy whose music has been featured in a bunch of TV shows, I'm a little shocked that Chris Garneau isn't closer to a household name, but it's probably because his chamber pop is as emotionally intense as it is compelling. This is an artist who was recommended to Absolutely Kosher Records by Xiu Xiu, after all, even though the Brooklyn-based performer never approaches that band's level of histrionics. In any event, Garneau's not at the [...]
This week, our podcast features The Mumlers , a San Jose band whose sophomore album, Don't Throw Me Away , comes out today on Galaxia Records. The group's members were initially intended to be guest contributors on a solo recording by lead singer Will Sprott. Instead, they've united to become a formidable band full of talented musicians, whose first album, 2008's Thickets & Stitches , channeled their skills into a loose collection of folk, rock, blues and soul. Since that album's release, The Mumlers have been supporting the record with [...]
