Interpol get a lot of shit heaped upon them. From the constant references to Joy Division & The Chameleons, down to the criticism of Paul Banks' admittedly oft-baffling lyrics. 2007's Our Love To Admire seemed like the flashpoint for everyone who'd been patiently waiting for a major screwup to release steady streams of contempt and disdain in Interpol's direction. I actually included OLTA in my Best Albums of 2007 list, and while in retrospect I'm not sure I didn't put it there just to piss off people who wouldn't stop prattling on about [...]

Beginning November 27, WOXY will be at Stubb's Jr. for our local residency series. The kick-off to it all is Thanksgiving weekend with The Tunnels and Neon Indian , fresh off his Fun Fun Fun Fest performance. Neon Indian's Psychic Chasms has garnered praise from all over, and his live show has blossomed into one of the most notable on the tour circuit. His other outfit, Vega, is also still in full effect, keeping Texas-raised Alan Palomo and his visual affects artist Alicia Scardetta busy. The nostalgic indie pop mixed with fuzzed-out [...]

When The New York Times showed Elmhurst spokesman Dario Centorcelli a photo of what two missing letters added up to, he seemed perplexed. "Oh, God, are we going to get this fixed?" he wondered. Turns out this wasn't a prank on the Queens, N.Y. hospital but just a rather curious coincidence. Just as bad for the hospital would have been if the bulbs burned out to spell "Elm St." No one wants to get fixed up by Freddy Kreuger. [ via ]
Årtiet lakker så småt mod enden, og i den anledning har Frekvens kigget tilbage på de bedste plader fra perioden 2000 – 2009. Alle redaktionens medlemmer har således indleveret deres top 25 lister over årtiets plader, og de er nu blevet regnet sammen til Frekvens' definitive top 60 over årtiets bedste albums. Ikke mindre end 145 albums har været med i overvejelserne, men Arcade Fires debut endte med at blive den suveræne vinder, af et i øvrigt utroligt stærkt felt. Death Cab For Cutie forsangeren Ben Gibbards hyggeprojekt The Postal Service rendte med 2. pladsen, blandt andet foran to [...]
![[Electronic] Keeping Balance w/ Phoenix Remixes](http://cache.elbo.ws/posts/2139692_lg.jpg)
The Music Ninja is all about variety and balance (nothing compared to the picture on the right tho!). Our previous post was the amazing acoustic version of Phoenix - Lisztomania but just so you know we are serious about keeping it balanced.. check out this dubstep version of Phoenix 1901 by Neon Steve and a much layered Lisztomania version by Alex Metric and another take on 1901 by Alan Wilkis to even things out. Lisztomania (Alex Metric Remix) Download audio [...]

The reMixes of Ellie Goulding 's 'Under The Sheets' are coming in thick and fast! Kids At The Bar stopped by the electronic rumors inbox to share with us their amazing take on the tune. An aggressive and ominous lead line dominates the mix before giving way to some powerful warping bass making the tune 100% darker. If this is dropped at a club it will command you to dance! ♫ Ellie Goulding - Under The Sheets (Kids At The Bar reMix) (zShare) [...]

Photo via stereogum In this picture, u see Edward Droste (lead singer of the band Grizzly Bear), along with a series of bros on a screen. Even though this chill session was happening in real life, Ed Droste also facilitated this same relationship on the internet with thousands of followers on the popular social networking site 'twitter.com.' Over the past year, @EdwardDroste became one of the most beloved alternative celebrities on twitter. It made me sad to learn that Edward Droste committed suicide. [...]

Last seen speeding through the chrome and glitter Delorean inspired world of Neon Neon, Ms. Le Bon has packed up her silver suitcase hung up her moon boots and headed back to her roots. Anyone expecting an album of Roland drum machine influenced rejects will be sorely disappointed, the only whiff of eighties pomp and glamour to be found here is her fantastically ironic New Romantic surname… Instead her debut offering Me Oh My is a crooked take on the usual singer-songwriter fare. Folksy piano led tunes are interspersed with unexpected wonky Moog bleeps and [...]
Ο Chris Glover ήταν το καλά κρυμμένο μυστικό της Neon Gold Records μέχρι που άλλαξε το όνομα του σε Penguin Prison , δραπέτευσε από την φυλακή και τον πήραν όλοι χαμπάρι. Ο Chris μας έρχεται από τη Νέα Υόρκη, είναι κολλητός των Holy Ghost! (συμμετέχει και στο νέο τους album που θα κυκλοφορήσει στις αρχές του 2010), χτενίζεται αλά Moz και φτιάχνει pop τραγούδια που δεν θα άκουγε ποτέ ο Mike Tyson. Και το καλύτερο; Αρέσει στους πιγκουίνους! Penguin Prison: "A Funny Thing" [ mp3 via [...]
The Austrian city of Linz is in the news at the moment, as it's holding a No Music Day on Saturday. The project is all part of Linz's time as the 2009 European Capital of Culture , a title it shares with Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania. I visited Linz over the summer during the Pflasterspektakel festival - a five day celebration of street theatre. And what a celebration it was, with theatre taking over the streets. Comedians, clowns, acrobats, gymnasts, trapeze artists, jugglers all vye for attention, with great busking and music [...]
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 [...]
