And the parameters of the "experiment" continue to evolve. Beach House first debuted a name-less sonic study in effervescence at a show in New York . They subsequently brought back said cut for the Animal Collective-curated ATP Festival in May . Now, Victoria Legrand and Alex Scally have added some more layers to the number and unleashed it once more for their July 24th gig at the Portishead-curated All Tomorrow’s Parties event in London . Check out the track's progress above courtesy of TwentyFourBit . If things keep up at this rate, [...]
Wakey!Wakey! strip down Beach House's dream pop tune 'Zebra'
New video from Stockholm's very own I Break Horses . I'm not sure if I've ever seen such consecutively encapsulating images. Musically embracing the frizzy distortions of My Bloody Valentine , the twosome companionship of Beach House and the musicality of The Radio Dept. You're listening to the single from their début album Hearts which is released August 15th in the UK via Bella Union . -James [...]

Last month a video of Beach House playing a new song surfaced. But it was removed right away. The band played it at their Webster Hall show last week, and a good video has surfaced. If you missed the song the first time, now is your chance to watch it. via TwentyFourBit

So last Thursday (my birthday btw, and I'm really mad none of you remembered, lol), I went to go see the wonderfully chill band from Baltimore, Beach House , play at the Trocadero in Philly. And it was awesome awesome awesome. That's three awesomes. It was a really good show and they are an excellent band to see live. I would recommend the experience to anyone. But anyway, at said show Beach House unveiled a new song. They played [...]
Watch the performance below. Teen Dream is my favorite album of 2010. Click here to view the embedded video. MP3: Beach House - I Do Not Care For The Winter Sun

Que Beach House hizo uno de los mejores discos del 2010 es un hecho de sobra conocido y comprobado. Sin embargo, ya estamos en el 2011, y el dúo compuesto por Victoria Legrand y Alex Scally no parece ser de los que se la piensan mucho para sacar un nuevo álbum, pues cada una de sus producciones ha salido consistentemente con un intervalo de dos años. La banda ha realizado un extenso tour a lo largo y ancho del globo terráqueo para promocionar su Teen Dream permitiéndonos escuchar [...]
[Henry Rollins turned 50 on Sunday, and the party is tonight at Largo ...] Top shows to ponder while you listen to Daniel Lanois' Black Dub at 11:15 on "Morning Becomes Eclectic:" ► Coachella-bound Swedish trio the Radio Dept. , whose 2010 album "Clinging to a Scheme" clung to plenty of indie-pop hearts and who followed it in January by releasing the best-of "Passive-Aggressive: The Singles 2002-2010," play to a sold-out El Rey Theatre. Young Prisms open. [That's [...]
It looks like I've just found my latest favorite band from Scandanavia - Tetris therapy! Sounds a bit like shoegaze indie rock, and with a band name with Tetris in it, you can't go wrong! ...

Hace un par de días en Facebook, la banda de indie folk de origen sueco -pero basada en Londres-, Fanfarlo, anunció que sus "ex-compañeros de cuarto de ensayo", Stricken City , se separarán el próximo mes. Ésta sin duda es una terrible noticia, ya que este cuarteto londinense se formó a lo mucho apenas hace 3 años y desde su debut, "Songs About People I Know", el futuro de Stricken City ya comenzaba a prometer mucho, al menos entre los fanáticos del dream pop y la música influenciada por los sonidos lluviosos tan característicos [...]

Blackbird Blackbird sent these 2 things during the weekend: his brand new video for "Heartbeat" directed Erik Kirtley & Amanda Berglund + a remix he just finished of Beach... **Summary** Go to website for downloads, videos & more.
It's been a pretty bad week for blackbirds in the Midwestern states, but not in San Francisco apparently, as the city's resident chillwave purveyors Blackbird Blackbird, who unveiled the newest video clip for the project, the weirdo-psych-looking "Heartbeat" which, in its two-minute run-time manages to mesh all sorts of awkward visuals like projectors, face paint, [...]

As much as bloggers labor over these type of lists, I have to remind myself that a year-end roundup is simply a reflection of taste and mood at a given point. With that disclaimer, here is All the Young Punk’s best albums of 2010. No countdown this year. 1. High Violet - The National : “Sorrow found me when I was young,” Matt Berninger sings on one of the more uplifting songs on High Violet . While Berninger and the National don’t reach the high-water mark set by Alligator , this album blew [...]
