![WHY? - A Sky For Shoeing Horses Under [HD]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/youtube/Kil3VrzwFhI_130.jpg)
Why the fuck not? Beginning as a Hip-Hop and Indie-Rock lyricist, Jonathan "Yoni" Wolf has since gone on to attract others into his ever-revolving Indie-Electron ic-Hip-Hop-Folk-Rock orbit, including his brother Josiah Wolf on drums (who just released his debut album this week), Doug McDiarmid, and Matt Meldon. Signed to Anticon Records they've dropped five highly regarded albums to date, "Eskimo Snow" being the most recent from September 2009, but it was perhaps their fourth albums "Alopecia" that really got them noticed, appearing on a multitude of year-end lists and a couple of "best album of 20083 lists. I've [...]
Another new video has hit the net this week, just a couple of weeks after the last new Why? video ( Eskimo Snow ). However, this new one is an older song, "The Sky For Shoeing Horses Under" off of the album Alopecia Why - A Sky For Shoeing Horses Under The band is currently touring down under , hello Melbs!!!!
WHY? Because dry humor and sarcasm never go out of style.
am i sick to think i look best under fluorescent light? mooned yoni wolf eons ago on the sanddollars ep. his first faltering steps away from anticon hiphoppery towards anticon skewed poppery. a line that struck me for superficial reasons coz i've always thought my shadow looks way better than my actual person, all sharp angles and smooth lines not the lumpy sack of odd porridgey flesh i actually am. yeah those faltering steps have become gazelle-esque leaps and bounds over recent years from elephant eyelash through alopecia [...]
Rating: 2.5 out of 5 stars Following their critically acclaimed third LP, Alopecia, Berkeley, California's Why? return with Eskimo Snow , a new collection of hip hop infused indie rock. The word "new" may be misleading because the tracks on Eskimo Snow were recorded during the same sessions as 2008's Alopecia . One might think that songs recorded in the same session would carry familiar [...]
Today felt like a good day to post another Why? track; Fatalist Palmistry is currently my favorite track from the Berkeley, California indie/hip-hop act, though this title seems to change bi-weekly. The song can be found on Why?'s third full-length studio album Alopecia , released in March of 2008. Again, Yoni Wolf's lyrics steal the show on this number, highlighted by the opening hook: "i sleep on my back cause it's good for the spine and coffin rehearsal" For all the Why? fans reading [...]
[mp3] Why?: "The Blackest Purse" So the big news is that WHY? isn't as hip hop anymore. Well, we're never against band development, even though their last record Alopecia was pretty fantastic. Andrew dropped us some lines a bit ago about how excited we are for their newest effort. WHY?'s new song "This Blackest Purse" is excellent and gives us a good picture of how the band sounds in 2009. This new direction is a-ok with us and leaves us in [...]
It feels like years since my last Why? post, so here it is. I was perusing Pitchfork today, as I so often do when I should be working, and came across a post announcing an upcoming Why? album entitled Eskimo Snow , scheduled for release this fall; This pleased me greatly. Today's track comes from the Berkeley, California indie-rock/hip-hop ensemble's third full-length album Alopecia , released in 2008. If you are digging what the band is laying down here, scroll down to the "Related Posts" section below to check out some more Why? tunes. [...]

[mp3] WHY? - "The Hollows" P4k has an interview with WHY? frontman Yoni Wolf this morning, in which the musician reveals the details behind the trio's brand new album. Eskimo Snow is the title of the follow-up to last year's brilliant Alopecia , and it's expected to drop in the fall via Anticon. The band recorded the album during the Alopecia sessions, and was initially due for release before the Best Of 2008 opus [...]
Is it lame to post a song called Good Friday on a day called Good Friday? I've decided it's 40% lame, 40% rad, and 20% holy shit this song is good. As you may have guessed from the title of this post, and the first two sentences, tonight's tune is titled Good Friday . If you follow BowlingStone.com regularly, you'll realize that this is yet another song from Why? 's 2008 album, Alopecia . I'm sure by the time I'm done with this site I will have posted every song from the album, because it [...]
I've got ANOTHER tune from Why? today, making the Berkeley, California indie-rock/hip-hop band my most blogged about artist. By Torpedo Or Crohn's is another track from the band's third full-length release Alopecia . Front-to-back, side-to-side, or however one consumes an album, Alopecia is one of the solidest albums I have listened to over the past year. The sound and the vibe that Why? creates is such a long bus ride from anything that I'm used to, and it sucks me in every time. [...]
Tonight's post is another track from the Berkeley, California hip-hop/indie-rock band Why? . It seems like every song I hear from this group I end up liking more than the last.

Released in March of 2008, Alopecia has garnered almost universal praise from music critics. [...]

Why? – Eskimo Snow

taking tiger mountain
taking tiger mountainThere's a lot contained below the surface of Eskimo Snow and what's underneath is not entirely an uplifting affair. The album, which was released in late September on Anticon Records , is almost completely devoid of the hip-hop sheen that glossed both Elephant Eyelash and Alopecia and what is left settles with much more heft and weight. Much of the the humorous subtext is gone as well, though the wordplay left behind is no less clever. The album [...]

All Our Noise // We Are Live
All Our Noise // We Are LiveThe songs on Why?'s newest album, Eskimo Snow, might have from come out of the same sessions that birthed 2007's Alopecia, but this moodier effort seems to dwell on more of a sense of Midwestern desolation. In the band's words, "it's a sobering take on mortality that unfurls in lush waves of Americana and pop-infused psych-folk." [...]

Someone to Love More Than MusicLove More (<3) Sigur Rós - Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust I have to say I was not expecting this album to sound the way it did at all . The first track jumps up and beats on your brain in ways so completely foreign to any Sigur Rós fan that it's bound to have made a few people simple turn the record off. Sigur Rós is known for their spacey, ethereal Post-Rock tendencies, so to see this new, energetic, and all around joyous album is a fairly [...]
