Photo by Joe Mangat . Well, after a trip up to Portland, Oregon and a bout with a still-lingering illness, I'm finally back up in this. Perfect timing too, because there's a lot goin' on right now. Most notably, you can now stream a song from the most exciting effort still waiting to see an official release this year - Animal Collective 's Fall Be Kind . "Graze" opens this stunning EP with a languid interplay of sounds and soaring vocal trade-off between Avey Tare and Panda Bear before transforming into [...]
The xx + jj = whoa. This is not an algebra problem, though it may solve the puzzle of who jj is. The mysterious Swedish group, who have never revealed their identities, are making their U.S. debut this fall with another electronic band of the moment, the xx. Will they play behind a curtain?

[MP3] Beach House Norway Analysis of the Cultural and Critical Impact of this Song: This mp3 is the 'beginning/launching point/kickoff' of the 2k10 music season.

It is this cycle which gives the blogosphere purpose, giving us a reason to live/evaluate/judge even though 'time' is irrelevant on the internet. Beach House's PR/marketing team should be commended for setting the tone for 2k10. In [...]

The video is done by Montreal's Fluorescent Hill and comes correct with the crazy oil drop / bouncing ball characters floating through a ravaged industrial cityscape terrorized by a devilish red n' black cloud trail. To learn more about how [...]

Three years in the making, there's an 'OOOM' song, forthcoming album, comic book, website and [...]

Notes upon listening to Yo Gabba Gabba: Music Is . . . Awesome five times in the past two days: - I had no idea what Yo Gabba Gabba was until the promo copy arrived in my mailbox on Wednesday.

However, after looking at the album cover and doing some quick internet researching - which mainly consisted of this article from Slate [...]
