T he Limousines have developed a nice following over the years with their catchy as shit, synthy jams that contains all sorts of tongue in cheek lyrics. Brand new single, "The Future" continues this successful trend, and is a hit in the making. The duo got hold of a massive budget for this video, but did they really have to completely destroy (my favorite automobile of all time) the Delorean? I think it's fair to say these boys are not too optimistic about the oncoming world. As I just finished the spectacular end of the world film Melancholia, pessimism toward the future, seems [...]
![[VIDEO PREMIERE] The Limousines: The Future](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4044512_lg.jpg)
The Limousines track 'The Future' is the stark meeting of Shoe-gaze synth-pop and the macabre. Their first hit 'The Internet Killed The Video Star' briefly hints at this darker side, but 'The Future' lets it all out. The dark imagines and lyrics oddly hide a very positive and simple zen like outlook on life. "I wanna laugh as many times as I can before I die/I wanna love, I wanna smile; I don't need much, I'm a simple child/I wanna laugh as many times as I can before I die/I wanna love, I wanna smile, just wanna [...]

Si pas mal de personnes sont passées à côté du premier album de Limousine, beaucoup moins devraient ignorer le second, sobrement intitulé 2. Formé entre autres par Laurent Bardainne, un membre de Poni Hoax, Limousine nous ramène à ces musiques aux ambiances nocturnes, à ces disques hautement[...]

Ekler'o'shock est fier de nous présenter leur toute dernière signature, le groupe Limousine . Le quatuor originaire de Paris nous annonce la sortie de leur nouvel album intitulé II , pour le 16 janvier prochain. Un recueil de musique instrumentale à la fois pop sensuelle et nostalgique qui nous rappel le coté cinéphile des membres du groupe et ce n'est non sans hasard si le titre The Reindeer a été choisi pour illuster la bande annonce du dernier film de Bruno Dumont . Un groupe que l'on pourrait facilement qualifier de visionnaire lorsque l'on écoute [...]
![[COVER] The Limousines – "Call Me Al" (Paul Simon cover)](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3981690_lg.jpg)
if you be my bodyguard i could be your long lost pal ♫ The Limousines - Call Me Al (Paul Simon Cover) The Limousines were in the pipeline for a post on their jam "Internet Killed The Video Star" (and it's fun video ) a few years back but somehow never made the cut. Leave it to a fun Paul Simon cover to get them back in the mix! Although, any excuse to resurrect this track is a good one. People [...]
The Sounds take LA's Wiltern with lovable electro-pop and overexcited fans.

I was able to sit in on an intimate acoustic set from our own SF band, Geographer as they played a few for The Neighborhood.TV and Noise Pop . The recording should be posted in the next few weeks (we'll be sure to post it here), however after their short set, they played a few new songs as well as a "never-to-be-released" song that was unnamed. Their new album should be out February 2012. Geographer [...]

Editor's Note: Like last year, we decided to have two writers go this year and provide two perspectives of this year's Outside Lands Music Festival. We have myself and local comic personality, Ivan Hernandez. So enjoy our little journey through San Francisco's largest and most popular music festival. IVAN : The 2011 Outside Lands festival was going to great by virtue of line-up alone. How many weekends could there ever be in which you could see The Black Keys, The Roots, Arcade Fire, Latyrx, and a host of other bands perform in Golden Gate Park? With [...]

At a time when dub artists have suddenly found their work considered passé, despite the genre's ever-increasing influence, Quasi Dub Development double down on the vitality of the form. Rather than getting into buzz saw bass wobbles and razor-sharp drum programming, QDD let it hang loose. This project is dominated by relaxed and creative horn sections. "A Rudder Flu" sets the tone with a spiralling horn/echo combo, which informs the listener that it's going to be a mellow, ambient journey. Indeed, drums, while certainly present, aren't a huge factor in this music; it's all pillow-y, non-aggro... Read More

This year we decided to ask Limousines frontman Eric Victorino to share his cell phone pictures from this year's Outside Lands Music Festival with us to get a glimpse of what it's like to be an artist at this prestigious festival. Turns out, a lot of interviews, golf carts, and packed crowds. Check it out after the jump and listen to their album below... "I spent most of friday in the media area doing interviews, so I just took pictures of the people who interviewed me. It's funny how different their personalities are when you turn [...]
The fourth annual Sunset Strip Music Festival killed it in Hollywood this past weekend, melting faces like silver in Bon Temps.

CD101 Summerfest at the LC Pavilion sold out in record time. The lineup on the main stage featured Cake, She Wants Revenge, Company of Thieves and Sleeper Agent. The second stage (which was shoved in it's normal corner by the bar) included Cold Cave, Funeral Party, Limousines and local guys Old Hundred who won the fan vote. Please proceed for my massive photo post of the evening. Cake Company of Thieves [...]
Background: The Limousines are a glimmery, upbeat-yet-foulmouthed indie pop group out of the San Francisco Bay Area. They released their first full-length album, Get Sharp , just over a year ago, and have been attracting some major attention thanks to two big, synth-laden singles; "Internet Killed the Video Star" and "Very Busy People". The latter has enjoyed massive radio success and has helped the band gain both local and nation-wide recognition. While there are no official plans for a new album, I think we can expect big things from the Limousines in the years to [...]

(photo courtesy of Tampabay.com found under Creative Commons) The Laughing Cat is an Ybor restaurant that specializes in "new & progressive Italian Cuisine." This means that they make their pasta from scratch and fuse the freshest ingredients together to create a unique dining experience. The restaurant, located in a tiny brick building, has a charming romantic feel to it. This is one of the reasons why J-Fur wanted to go there for Valentine's Day and why we returned last week to celebrate Lana's birthday. [...]
