Song: "The Reasons" Artist: The Weakerthans Year: 2003 Album: Reconstruction Site Download The Weakerthans - "The Reasons".mp3 How I don't know how to sing I can barely play this thing But you never seem to mind And you tell me to fuck off When I need somebody to. How you make me laugh so hard. How whole years refuse [...]
In today's post, we have a 2nd track from the forthcoming Bowerbirds album The Clearing , which I have to say is getting me more and more excited; we have a new track off a new Woodpigeon EP For Paolo that is pretty damn awesome; we have a couple tracks that I like from bands I don't know much about, some that I know a little more about ( Said the Whale , Damien Jurado ), and we have the "slow version" of Superchunk 's absolutely brilliant 2009 B-side "Blinders", the [...]
.. and nigh on 40 years since his original recordings were made, Drag City puts out his album on vinyl and download. OK, that's the much abridged version. There is also the long and intriguing story but to trim that down a little for you, premier Maori guitar and sitar exponent Jerebine left New Zealand for London at the tail end of the swinging 60s in thrall to the sounds of Jimi Hendrix and Steve Winwood. Notably, he played some bass in the Jeff Beck Group, but more importantly laid down a collection of [...]
I had surgery on my foot on December 7th, which turned out to be my own personal Pearl Harbor. And yes, I just compared my travails over the past 2 months with the attack that started America's entrance into World War II. Which might be worse than me weaving the story of my upcoming surgery with a review of 127 Hours . But this is my blog and fuck it, the last 7 fucking weeks have been absolute hell. So let's just move on. Shit happens to arlot of people but when you've been [...]

The Dirty Three has a new album coming out, their first new album since 2005's Cinder, a long break for the Melbourne trio who play violin, guitar, and drums, no singing, just brilliant music, the first and maybe only rock band to feature violin so prominently, or so impressively. The new album is titled Toward the Low Sun and is coming out in February followed by a tour of Australia and New Zealand in March and some festivals in the UK and Europe over the summer. No word yet on an American leg. But here's [...]
Il Debutto di Lissy Trullie sotto Downtown Records è previsto per il 6 marzo 2012. Prodotto da John Hill (già con Santigold, M.I.A., Shakira) e David Sitek (TV On The Radios, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Liars), l'album, self titled, è il seguito al precedente EP di debutto, " Self-Taught Learner ", molto acclamato dalla critica. Il disco, registrato negli studi di Hill e Sitek a L.A., spazia tra reminiscenze post-punk e ritornelli pop, i suoni dell'era Creation e John Cale, Nico ed Ema in versione molto meno terroristica. Insomma un mix tra terreno ed etereo. La voce duttile di [...]
![EAR CANDY | [MP3] Oberhofer – "HEART"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4006765_lg.jpg)
Facebook | Myspace | Twitter The recent couple years have seen an uprising of lo-fi bedroom musicians (see: Youth Lagoon, Coma Cinema) and when Brad Oberhofer appeared on the scene in 2010 unsigned and with a free EP for download, he was no different. "Heart," the first single from Oberhofe r's debut LP Time Capsules II (out March 27), is a departure from the reverb-laden fuzz-filled soundscape that we've come to identify with him. From the crisp and clear opening notes of a solitude [...]
Song: "(This Is) The Dream of Evan and Chan" Artist: Dentl (with Ben Gibbard of Death Cab for Cutie) Year: 2001 Album: Life is Full of Possibilities In 2001, my interest in music underwent a great and wondrous revival that started with my first listen to Neutral Milk Hotel's In the Aeroplane over the Sea , continued with my discovery of Modest Mouse and Godspeed! You Black Emperor and by the time the year was over, I was a full-fledged devotee to this [...]
Song: "I See a Darkness" Artist: Bonnie "Prince" Billy (with Alex Neilson and Harem Scarem) Year: 2006 Album: Live, Queen's Hall, Edinburgh Scotland, 12 April 2006 Well you're my friend (it's what you told me) And can you see (what's inside of me) Many times we've been out drinking And many times we've shared our thoughts But did you ever, ever notice, the kind of thoughts I got? Well you know I have a love, a love for everyone [...]
Listening to new music in January is a struggle. The old year is gone and the temptation to sample anything and everything in the rush to be instantly impressed is too great.. inevitably a whole host of new releases fall flat. So we were fortunate to have an early 2012 visit from one of the finest guitar pop bands stalking the planet in the Dum Dum Girls , who summarily delivered a concise set of jangling sonic gems at the Kings Arms on Friday, and kickstarted my new year listening. Now, my love for the Girls has [...]
Song: "In the Drugs" Artist: Low Year: 2002 Album: Trust Download Low - "In The Drugs".mp3 I believe a corner may have been turned in my recovery from toe surgery. Finally. After 4 weeks of absolute hellish pain I never experienced in my life before, not even recovering from my ACL replacement knee surgery of a few years back. Things have been considerably less painful over the past few days and [...]
il 21 febbraio 2012 Sacred Bones pubblicherà in versione digitale e in formato vinile 73 una revisione totale di In Your Nature , brano contenuto all'interno di Conatus , l'ultimo album di Zola Jesus recensito su indie-eye.it da questa parte , interamente prodotta da David Lynch . Secondo quello che si può leggere sulla pagina Sacred Bones dedicata al pre-order del singolo, Lynch avrebbe scelto il brano tra quelli secondo lui più potenzialmente incisivi per un singolo e lo avrebbe trasformato e in parte risuonato con [...]

"Available everywhere January 6, 2012 - it's Ancient River's third full-length album Let It Live! Ten new songs, 38 minutes, fast, fun, & rocking!" A quick succession of releases doesn't seem to have diluted the Florida based trio`s big bag of quality tunes.`Let It Live` is a Wah-Wah infected Garage-Rock monster, a ten track audio wonder to satisfy any musical preferences - Stoner-Rock meets the heavy clasp of Shoegaze, head spinning one moment, peacefully horizontal in another. I`m picking two tracks to post, we`ll start with the fantastic `Let`s Breed` purely because it`s head healing properties [...]
Adrian Smith , chitarrista degli Iron Maiden e il front man degli SikTh , Mikee Goodman si sono avventurati in un nuovo progetto da studio dal nome Primal Rock Rebellion . L'album di imminente pubblicazione, mette insieme due approcci molto diversi alla musica; la voce oscura di Mikee e il melodismo chitarristico riconoscibilissimo di Adrian, che tra l'altro, suona anche il basso per tutte le tracce dell'album. Contributi e ospiti sono quelli di Abi Fry di Bat for Lashes e Dan Foord alla batteria, già con il progetto SikTh. L'album, [...]
If you're missing a tune or two for tonight's NYE rave up, here's something to get the solitary party groovers mixing and moving. Cut Copy (the Aussie Duran Duran de nos jours ) had a frighteningly large amount of success this year with the electro-poppy Zonoscope . Meh. Go figure. But wait. Enter legendary DJ Andrew Weatherall, who did what he does best to the rambling overextended Sun God (from the abovementioned album). Nine minutes of perfectly produced bubbling blissed out Madchester (Madcunian?) groove. Download it courtesy of [...]
The race for Vague Space song of the year was incredibly tight between the top four tracks on this chart (which also nicely mirror the top four albums of the year) but alas a decision had to be made and since I fell one way for album, I fell the other way for song so without further ado, here's my favorite track of 2011... 1. "Barnes' Yard" The Rural Alberta Advantage This track was actually also [...]
