Taking one of an album's most romantic tracks and turning it into an even more romantic video fairly admirable. For "No Stranger," one of the more endearing tracks from Small Black 's recently released Limits Of Desire , directors Mandy Mandelstein and Addison Mehr focus on a man who sees on a woman on a train, imagining the life they could have together if he didn't miss out on this chance to talk to her. Watch the video below and get Limits Of Desire today on Jagjaguwar .]]> text/html 2013-06-18T19:00:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/5012824/watch-small-black-no-stranger-video/
Brooklyn synthpop group Small Black released their sophomore album, Limits of Desire last month, and is an early highlight of 2013. The track "No Stranger" was paired with a video, released today, and features a highly romanticized storyline that actually fits the track's theme quite well. Check out the video below, and be sure to listen to Limits of Desire , you won't regret it.]]> text/html 2013-06-18T17:14:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/5012503/volcano-choir-byegone/
Volcano Choir 'Repave' out September 3, 2013 on Jagjaguwar.]]> text/html 2013-06-18T15:15:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/5012250/listen-volcano-choir-byegone/


Bon Iver front-man Justin Vernon's post-rock-gone-pop side-project Volcano Choir is readying their sophomore record, Repave , out September 3rd via Jagjaguwar and introduced its first single on YouTube. That's the cover up there. As a collaborative effort between Vernon and Collections of Colonies of Bees, the Volcano Choir project has always seen differing styles existing harmoniously, but "Byegone" succeeds more on raw power than even the most orchestral of his work with Bon Iver has managed.

Volcano Choir send hype into overdrive with "Byegone" from Repave. Volcano Choir have released the first single from their recently announced album, Repave, and it has me very optimistic for the album.

Unreasonable as it'll doubtless sound, I'm currently nurturing a deep-seated resentment of the US on the purely illogical grounds that Sharon Van Etten has more recently been traipsing all over her native territory from pillar to post; state to state, and has thus been firmly dislocated from the UK for far too long. And although it's not quite a subduedly spectacular live show or owt, this piece composed in honour of associate and celebrated Gothic grotesque abstractionist Esao Andrews ought to tide us over that little while 'til she's hopefully back over on this side o' things.

Seven Questions with Unknown Mortal Orchestra WORDS and PHOTOS by TRAVIS GILLETT I still remember the first time I heard UMO , which means quite a bit coming from the haze and fog that would come to be known as "The Summer of 2012." I still remember the first time I saw UMO , again, one of the 4-5 memories that survived that year.

Unknown Mortal Orchestra provides a little public humiliation in their latest video for "From The Sun." The song is one of the many excellent cuts to appear on their latest Jagjaguwar release II .

Back in 2009, a year after releasing the debut Bon Iver album, To Emma, Forever Ago , Justin Vernon threw a fascinating curveball into his musical mix by forming another band called Volcano Choir and releasing an album called, Unmap . Experimental and boundless, Unmap steered clear of things like verses and choruses and instead embraced textures and musical wanderings that toy with elements of post-rock and (dare I [...]]]> text/html 2013-05-28T15:00:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4974018/volcano-choir-repave-album-teaser/

" Fantasy , the new record from Lightning Dust (Amber Webber and Josh Wells of Black Mountain), will be out on Jagjaguwar on June 25th (24th in the UK). Fantasy is Lightning Dust's third proper full-length album, and it finds its inspiration in skeletal synth pop, modern R&B beats, the films of John Carpenter and -- in accordance with Lightning Dust's only longstanding rule -- absolute minimalism."]]> text/html 2013-05-22T14:00:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4964360/lightning-dusts-diamond-video-features-young-people-enjoying-a-soak/

Angel Olsen 's Half Way Home is being released on CD, which is just as well as it deserves to be out there and as accessible as possible. Astonishing critics upon its release last year, her second release on Bathetic Records was a bolt from the blue. From the album's opening track, "Acrobat," Olsen simultaneously announces and differentiates herself in an industry where heads all around were scratched as people sought to place her. New Kate Bush ? No, not nearly as whimsical. [...]]]> text/html 2013-05-14T13:00:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4949212/mp3-playlist-indie-dojo-may-2013-round-2/


Consistency. Something this planet's unpredictable climate and the Indie Dojo do not have common. 'Cause no matter if you are currently being slapped in face with an unbearable heatwave or you have ice tsunamis (yes, this is a real thing) knocking down your doors, you've always got that weekly playlist to bundle up to or in LA's case...get naked with. Hey...don't judge. It's f'n hot.]]>
