5 Songs is a weekly series where we point out the strange, the grand, and the unique connections between our favorite songs. Let's get weird. Words by Chris This to me, as mentioned elsewhere on this blog, is the most interesting part of Matt Berninger's lyric and The National's emotional energy, the tragedy of "bright ruffians" becoming a part of the business class, or "losing" your friends to the institution of marriage. It's a [...]
"Wish You Were There" is a new feature by Quit Mumbling giving you full set list downloads from shows you probably wish you had (and might have actually) gone to... To start off the feature, relive one of my favorite nights of the past year by downloading the entire set from The National at The Hollywood Bowl on September 11th, 2011. If you really want to jump start your memory, and possibly a tear or two, check out Kenny's review of the show here. Download The National Live @ [...]
Hugo Weaving may just be the most versatile actor currently in Hollywood today. In The Boxer and The Bombshell, Weaving is a mobster that has control of a seedy underground set of businesses during the interwar years (teens/twenties). Paired alongside Matt le Nevez and Rose Byrne, Weaving is able to lead the film to a [...]

For those who know André Saraiva, it would be difficult to define the graffitist-cum-night entrepreneur's style whitout mentionning his legendary vintage aviator leather jacket. This fall, Maison Kitsuné is paying tribute to this essential French outfit by designing a replica of his five pockets aviator leather jacket. This exclusive garment comes with two different colours [...]

Nous sommes le 9 juin 2011 quand soudain une araignée dantesque dépasse les frontières de l'île enchanteresse que l'on nomme Sardaigne. Déferlante implacable, provoquant sur quelques malheureux bien heureux 3 jours de délires intenses. En voici un aperçu imagé par Still & Moving : La « bariolée » en marche, sans crainte, se retrouve devant notre sauveur le maestro Italien Paolo Alberto Lodde akka Dusty Kid. « Argia ». Tel est le remède de notre bienfaiteur. Celui-ci porte ni plus ni moins le nom de notre mal. Un paradoxe antagoniste se présente alors à nous: le démon est [...]

Sister Crayon - Thief-Boxer, Asleep This trio has seemed to capture the sound of a [dream] hypothetical collaboration between Marissa Nadler and Warpaint . Taking the dynamic qualities of Marissa's despondent voice, paired with the dynamic qualities of Warpaint's lachrymose [big word!] musical compositions to create this expansive haunted landscape of a massive burned out Cathedral.

This was a put a mirror under her nose to see if she's breathing sort of morning. I stayed up until close to three and didn't wake up until nearly 11. I think it was the, "No joy in Mudville," which kept me awake watching really bad movies. The Sox are done for the season, no more baseball. Summer is officially over. Oh the pain! Oh the agony! Today is cloudy and will probably rain some more. It rained some time last night, and the day is too damp for anything to dry. Cold air is on its [...]

Losing in front of your home crowd? "Boxers" can be found on World of Morrissey .
Even with band member Ryan Biornstad's SXSW arrest , which led to the cancellation of at least a couple shows, I was able to witness Starfucker bring the party twice at this year's best week of music. I still believe them to be horribly underappreciated on the whole. Anyway, Fake Drugs , the side project from Shawn Classford and Keil Corcoran of the band, has put together a new remix for the band Lovers - former labelmates & fellow Portland dance-rockers. The original [...]

Stemming from the picturesque Prague in the Czech Republic & Budapest, Hungary between them, Treitl Hammond and Malibu Breeze have perfectly captured the essence of the ever ongoing summer time spirit and have wrapped it up nicely in their own unique style of European electronica and native born influences. Tom Boxer's own country leaping dominance with ' Morena ' in Romania, Poland and Israel has already landed him the always-coveted number 1 spot in their own respective music charts, so as an up n' comer still in his own right on [...]

Participações especiais em shows do The National não são novidades, e canções como Terrible Love já receberam o auxílio de Sufjan Stevens e Bon Iver , e Conversation 16 já ganhou os backing vocals e guitarras de Richard Reed Parry , do Arcade Fire , em várias oportunidades. A parceria do The National com os canadenses foi retomada em um show recente em Chicago, que contava com as duas bandas pelo preço de um ingresso apenas, e ainda proporcionou aos fãs um momento histórico: um dueto de [...]

You might not know it but the first band signed by Vagrant Records was Boxer from Boston, Mass. The band's one and only album, The Hurt Process was produced by none other than Face to Face's Trever Keith and released by Vagrant on May 5th, 1998. It's an under-appreciated but masterful slab of post-Lifetime post-hardcore influenced melodic punk rock that's one of my all time favorites. Now the wife (not yet the wife at that point) and I moved to Indianapolis earlier that Spring and somehow spent quite a bit of that summer [...]
