Baltimore's Beach House continue to impress with each and every release.  This year's Bloom might be their best yet.  It's definitely my personal favorite from the duo and one my top 10 favorite albums of 2012, which makes it incredibly difficult to pick one favorite.   Bloom is one of those records you can listen to start to finish, over and over again.  "Myth" was my first taste of Bloom and it's an incredible leadoff track.  "Lazulli" is simply magical...or what I like to describe [...]

The Antlers ' "Drift Dive" , the first song on their acclaimed EP Undersea , now has an atmospheric, but fitting music video. The song traverses the water theme well and fits the mood to the dark, mystical, and downright gorgeous music. You know, gorgeous in that weird way. Check this ethereal video out and submerge yourself. And if you haven't, listen to Undersea . That EP is just ungodly amounts of win. Connect with The Antlers : [...]

The Antlers.  Brooklyn.  Undersea.  Hurricane Sandy.  Drift Dive.  Slowly sinking into water.  The city, or the music video?  There’s something strangely ironic about The Antlers releasing the music video for “ Drift Dive ” on Monday afternoon while Hurricane Sandy bore into The City That Never Sleeps.  Perhaps they should have waited a few more days so they could show the subways slowly filling up with water under a deserted Times Square, or maybe they were just egging Sandy on.  Either way, you can sink into the gorgeousness of this song properly with the imagery below.  If you [...]

I can vividly recall excitedly approaching what is now another relatively soulless O2 down around Shepherd's Bush on two separate, although here associated occasions. Once was to finally catch Bristol trip hop progenitor Tricky , whilst the other was to observe The Antlers out in the wilds of west London. One disappointed a little less than the other , but the two contrasting forces here combine to recreate the lucid flow of the latter's Crest. Stripped of nigh on everything aside from Peter Silberman's crystalline indie cooing, it'd appear on first exposure that the self-professed [...]

• theantlers - Crest (Tricky Remix)

The Antlers - Undersea By Russell Warfield One of the most amazing things about The Antlers is that they’re not consistently just referred to as ‘that cancer band’. And that they shook off that unsavoury fate with the quality of just one follow up album – an album of such quiet majesty as to blow off the cobwebs of a breakthrough album hinging upon, in slow and painstaking detail, an extended metaphor in the form of the tale of a cancer patient wasting away. Undersea severs [...]

[photo courtesy of Chad from The Artistree.fm - full set here ] The Antlers "secret" show at Glasslands Gallery on Monday was announced in the morning and sold out within a few minutes. For a band that sold out the 1200-capacity Webster Hall the last time they played New York , The Antlers took the opportunity of this small surprise gig to play for an extremely worthwhile charitable effort. Charitywater.org is an organization that provides safe and clean drinking water to developing nations, and this concert [...]

Hospice was an album of such depressive depth and emotional turmoil, it could change the color of an entire evening - it's probably the reason you can't put your iPod on shuffle at a party. Burst Apart , an album of greater sonic energy and less life-of-death urgency, presented a bit of hope in the face of pain. Now comes, "Undersea," and EP that explores water as a thematic thread, and it is, appropriately, a work that is cripplingly heavy and dense. On "Zelda," you can just about feel yourself drifting through the aquatic world, as the track [...]

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars The Antlers , hailing from Brooklyn, have been making groovy tunes for some time now, but they made significant waves last year with the release of their third studio album, Burst Apart, which graced several ‘best of the year lists,’ including that of this website. That album left us all ready for more, so when the band released a new single and announced this EP a mere year after that brilliant record, it’s safe to say fans were stoked, and The Antlers [...]

Thinking.  Searching.  Discovering.  Smiling.  Crying.  Celebrating.  These are what we are all doing every single day.  But towards what exactly?  We learn from our mistakes, bask in our triumphs, and hope for our dreams to come true.  But in the end, is there a true point to it all?  I suppose those who believe in god, or religion, would have an answer to that.  But for those of us who ponder, we continually outsmart ourselves to whatever end we can conjure up at a specific moment in life.  I’ve been a believer in the man upstairs, and I’ve been a [...]

Submerging into the depths of past sorrows and loves had become second-nature for the Brooklyn trio after releasing 2009’s Hospice , the much-debated tale of an emotionally abusive relationship under the guise of a hospice attendant and a terminally-ill patient. Their debut was followed by something slightly less depressing, 2011’s Burst Apart , an album concerned with haunting dreams and a fear of moving on. With that distinction, Undersea transitions from its extremely depressing predecessors to a more stylized effort, contradicting its namesake by [...]

"Drift Dive" is one of just four tracks offered up by fine art-pop masters The Antlers on their new EP Undersea (July 24, ANTI-). But in short order it also sums up the mood and scope of this all-too-brief new project from the consistently interesting Brooklyn trio led by Peter Silberman. After 09's dark and devastatingly beautiful Hospice and last year's mix of sun and shadows with Burst Apart (we called it "painstakingly cinematic... immensely satisfying"), the dramatic if understated Undersea does [...]

There's nothing better than two things I love bleeding together. Enter The Antlers' Drift Dive. The newly released single off the upcoming EP Undersea, set for release July 24th, and currently available for pre-order. Drift Dive is a melodic and dreamy track with soft vocals. The Antlers are masters of themed music, as you could probably tell by the acclaimed album Hospice , which still brings tears to my eyes and tears to many around me when seen live.  I'm actually an avid scuba diver, and listening to this track makes me think of being in the [...]

Verão e mar são elementos fortemente associados.
