Numa realidade hipoteticamente dividida num 'antes' e 'depois' da renovação da guitarra por Bill Orcutt, poucas serão realmente as mãos capazes surpreender genuínamente este mundo em modo pré-2012. Sem rasgos de revolução maior, noite bem entregue a duas senhoras que, no entanto, não cedem a imediatismos. Guitarra em contemplação junto ao rio vs guitarra em possessão junto ao precipício. Dois caminhos possíveis de perdição. Das labaredas dos incontornáveis Vibrathedral Orchestra, ao lado de Mick Flower e restante tropa, Bridget Hayden trouxe os benefícios (e malefícios) da trip xamânica [...]

(Kraak Records, 2011) Bridget Hayden's solo debut sounds something akin to floating a contact mic through a thunder cloud: particle fuzz and feedback grating on all sides. Formerly of the historied Vibracathedral Orchestra, it's no surprise that Hayden's managed such a layered, mordantly affecting record as she has here with An Indifferent Ocean , but I must say, I'm thoroughly impressed. Enthralled actually. Reminiscent of the best of Yellow Swans, Skullflower and Inca Ore, Hayden's cacophony sound is slathered generously with layers corrosive guitar and grainy backwater ghosting. It's a dark and [...]

Hayden is a 19yo DJ/Producer from Halifax UK that is making some outstanding midtempo progressive stuff. His latest two tracks have received significant (and much deserved) attention, on account of their complexity and cleanness.

Hayden Thorpe and Tom Fleming of Wild Beats recently played a few new songs off their upcoming record, Smother , in a warehouse for French site Telerama. The songs respectively are, "Reach a Bit Further", "Bed of Nails", and Deeper. I have to admit I have a deeper appreciation for their songs now. As both of their voices are pretty spectacular, I feel it gets lost sometimes in the heavy, dark instrumentation in the full recordings. Here though, there vocals and an acoustic guitar is all that matters. Smother , is out next week on [...]
![[Listen] – New Album By Wild Beasts – "Smother"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3408062_lg.jpg)
Tweet This has been a long time coming, but finally "Smother", the third album by England's Wild Beasts is here, and as I make my way through and listen to the first few songs it was well worth the two year wait. Coming off the heels of 20092s impeccable "Two Dancers", they had a tall order to beat, some big shoes to fill, some other stuff that means that they had to do a lot more to do better this time around.

I'm really surprised to find only one post on Toronto's Lou Canon when I searched the hypemachine for her music. It was my previous post , introducing this multi-instrumentalist/teacher to the blogosphere with a strong first step in "Heart Of". Guess I'm going to have to knock on some doors and see if anyone else hears her talent like I do. Her self-title album is a 10 -track Hayden -produced record; nine originals and this excellent cover of The Cure 's "Close To Me" (below). Look for her debut self-titled album on May [...]

Take a listen to Lou Canon . A multi-instrumentalist who teaches for a living and sings for a loving. After the school bell would ring, Lou would head to Skyscraper National Park, Hayden's studio, to write and record her music. The result is a 10 -track Hayden-produced record; nine originals and a cover of The Cure's "Close To Me". Look for her debut self-titled album on May 10th via Hardwood Records/Universal Music Canada. Check out "Heart Of". Lou Canon - "Heart Of"

We blijven nog even in de sfeer van het KRAAK label. Op het festival vorige week schafte ik namelijk de LP A Siren Blares In An Indifferent Ocean aan, de debuutplaat van Bridget Hayden . De Britse maakte in het verleden op onder meer gitaar en als violiste furore bij het dronegezelschap Vibracathedral Orchestra . Vijf jaar geleden alweer ging ze haar eigen weg en besloot ze haar creativiteit behalve in de muziek ook te ontplooien in de schilderkunst, poëzie, fotografie et cetera. Intussen heeft ze zich dus aangesloten bij de KRAAK familie, die [...]
![[Listen] – New Song By Wild Beasts – "Albatross"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3253052_lg.jpg)
Nope, it's not a cover of that chilled 602s Fleetwood Mac instrumental , it is in fact the first single from Wild Beasts ' upcoming third album "Smother" due out on May 10th. I've been a huge fan of Wild Beasts since I first discovered them when I saw their video for "All The Kings Men" and that album ( "Two Dancers" ) was one of the best and most overlooked of 2009. As a first single for new music, "Albatross" is quite tame compared to some of the more raucous numbers from both [...]

Photo by David Greenwald Hayden's Skyscraper National Park is probably my favorite produced/engineered album of all time - the closest I've ever heard an album come to bringing its performers directly into your bedroom. You can imagine how unbelievably great it sounds on 180-gram vinyl. Do yourself a favor and trade in your Bon Iver LP and order this right now . It's $17 including shipping - a small price to pay for a warm heart. Previously : Best of The 2000s: Top 100 Albums of the [...]
Too esoteric too touch but atmospheric enough to grab like a paint can, tag on the wall. k-os gets X to direct his latest video for the opening track of Yes!, which is available in stores. I've already laid out my case in support of this album multiple times so you know where I stand with this. [...]
Hayden: Starting Over Ye Rin Mok

I'm sure there are a hundred better exponents of alt country but since it's not a genre I seek out I've gotta say that at this moment in time Hayden Desser is the best. He's been around for a bit has auld Hayden, going back to a time when releasing something on cassette wasn't deemed a cold attempt at fostering nostalgia. The Toronto artist's most recent album came out last year but this track is from the one that preceeded it 'Elk-Lake Serenade'. This is a slow tumble, built around the simplest of vocal turns but I'm finding it strangely [...]

Poster Outside the Venue Well hello there. Hayden here with our first contribution to the new YTC site. I think it looks great so mad props to Bryan and Lorn for what they've done with the place. Tonight our heroes (Hayden and Neil) find themselves all alone in the big city. I wanted our first post to be about something I could get excited about, and nothing makes me happier than checking out an artist I can have the option of seeing at this year's Coachella. I had never heard of P.O.S. before his appearance on [...]

Basia Bulat broke into Canada's national indie spotlight in 2007 with the success of her debut LP Oh, My Darling . Released through Hayden 's Hardwood Records , Oh, My Darling would go on to share space on the shortlist for Canadian album of the year with the likes of The Weakerthans , Stars , and Holy Fuck . Bulat's long-awaited sophomore effort Heart of My Own made it's way onto shelves last month, this time with the help of Secret City Records and the infamous Canadian sound engineer [...]

Filed under: Exclusive , You Oughta Know , Canada Doug Paisley is having an identity crisis. When describing his sound, critics drop references to the majestic Colorado Rockies and the wide open-plains of the American West. He's been compared to the likes of Guy Clark , Bob Dylan and Townes Van Zandt , and in a recent four-star review of his self-titled debut, 'MOJO' magazine said Paisley possessed "the honeyed, craggy voice of the classic American country singer."
