From the first song on  Tales of a GrassWidow , it's pretty clear that CocoRosie have not changed much. Rather than reinvent themselves, as they sort of tried to on 20102s disastrous  Grey Oceans , Bianca and Sierra Cassidy (Coco and Rosie, respectively) went back to what made their early works, especially  Noah's Ark , such fascinating if at times frustrating pieces of weirded-out folk music. This is evident right from the beginning, as "After the Afterlife" commences with a heavenly introduction to said afterlife, before wiping away the reverb and allowing the sisters' [...]

I was first introduced to the music of Woodkid on a trailer for the video game Assassin's Creed Revelations; the sound was a perfect mix of polished pop, fused with a sophisticated orchestral sound. The Golden Age, Woodkid’s debut album ... Continue reading �

9Mary er kunstnernavnet for 18–19-årige Flo Morrissey, en singer-songwriter fra London, hvis musik virkelig har grebet mig om hjertet.  Navnet “9Mary” har hun taget fra en fotoserie af Adi Da Samraj, der tilsyneladende er en af hendes inspirationskilder. Når man lytter til hendes rene og modne sangstemme, slår det en, hvor naturligt det lyder. Musikken flyder fra 9Mary så naturligt, at man nemt kunne forestille sig, at det også lød sådan allerførste gang, hun samlede en guitar op eller satte sig ved klaveret og stemte i. Jeg vil tro, at det er sådan råt talent lyder. Lidt som en [...]

Four albums in and CocoRosie know how to freak the folk out....that was weak, wasn't it? It's true, though. The sister duo produce some of the most adventurous, experimental, and unique music to come out of the folk world, so much so that it's not even considered folk music at times. Last year they released a couple of singles, one with Antony Hegarty called "Tearz For Animals" and another called "We Are On Fire" , [...]

Frank Yang It's that time of year again, when holiday songs become inescapable, and why should I offer any respite? Christmastime is easy covers, man. Way easy. Trying to contribute a new song to the canon of Christmas songs is no easy feat - there's no shortage of familiar classics to draw on - but when you're the man who helped define what modern pop music is, maybe you've got something to offer. And so John Lennon's 1971 single - assisted by Phil Spector, he himself responsible for a solid Christmas song or two [...]

A while ago the legendary industrial band THROBBING GRISTLE got back together in the form of X-TG. After the death of bandmember Peter Christopherson the remaining avant-gard musicians decided to leave the name of their band behind. However they've just released an ambitious album project with two records at once - Desertshore  and The Final

photo by Katy McCourt-Basham After a four-year hiatus, Nebraskan dance-rockers The Faint have returned with a sinister new track called "Evil Voices." The song has the same frenetic feel of previous Faint material and would fit on an album like 20012s Danse Macabre , which will be reissued this coming Monday. The Faint will also kick off their North American tour tonight, playing Sacramento's Ace of Spades with Trust and Casket Girls. Spin has the full list of tour dates and a free download of "Evil Voices," [...]

Antony Hegarty pays his tribute to Fleetwood Mac in his cover of their epic song "Landslide"

• Nile Express Train - Antony Hegarty - Landslide

It probably doesn't hurt that 25-year-old Brooklyn singer/songwriter/actress Sophie Auster has a few genetic things going in her favor. Her dark-eyed, model-ready good looks for one, her famous literary parents -- Paul Auster and Siri Hustvedt -- for another. But Auster has worked to carved out her own career in music and her new EP Red Weather (November 13), arriving nearly a decade after she recorded her first, indicates [...]
