The eagle-eyed amongst you may have noticed the author of this post, and yes, it's a New York band posted by the absentee host of IR: New York. Now we're not promising anything, but do watch this space boys and girls... "When the New York Music Scene decided to get cool again in the early 2000's, there was a gigantic amount of bands popping out of the woodworks. Some of them memorable and some of them not so much. In the forefront of stellar bands to come out The Blam were at the top of the list. [...]
( email | facebook | twitter ) It was our inaugural post (and we mean that literally: it was January 16, 2009, and it says something like "we didn't have the idea for this blog before yesterday"). It introduced Vesuviasonic, whose debut LP Transfixed appeared courtesy Citation Records. Soon thereafter, Citation would sign Woolly Bandits , who garnered a bit of fame with the 2009 release Woman Of Mass Destruction . Time passes. Our journalism standards have elevated a bit (now we call it "streaming" instead [...]

El video es, en realidad, un nuevo tributo al tratamiento audiovisual original, [...]
Há um ano, Amanda Palmer , vocal do The Dresden Dolls , lançou o EP Amanda Palmer Plays The Popular Hits of Radiohead on her Magical Ukulele , que trouxe covers de Radiohead executados com maestria apenas com a voz de Amanda acompanhada pelo tal ukulele mágico. Para comemorar o aniversário do trabalho, a cantora lançou um vídeo para sua versão de No Surprises , que remete ao original (aquele mesmo no qual o Thom Yorke inundado faz o espectador entrar em depressão profunda por três dias [...]

Today marks the one year anniversary of Amanda Palmer's Radiohead tribute album, which she has commemorated with a video of the OK Computer classic "No Surprises."

Check it out below and look for Amanda Palmer Performs the Popular Hits of Radiohead on Her Magical Ukulele , available now. Amanda Palmer - "No Surprises" Animated Music Video from [...]

Portland's Quiet Life have just released the music video for "No Surprise," the third single from their new album, Big Green . It's a beautifully shot story about a man and woman, very much in love, who appear almost nomadic as they drive around in an old pickup truck with a bunch of furniture and home decor packed in the bed. They make various stops along the way, unloading pieces of their home only to end up leaving the items behind as they continue on down the road. It's a wonderfully poetic piece that captures the essence of the [...]
Luna asta, în loc de un top 5 pe 5 si unul pe 25, apar ambele azi. Ăsta, și unul mai pe seară. De ce?! Pentru că azi e o zi mai specială, e ziua fratelui meu. Diferența de vârstă între noi 2 este de 2 ani și ceva. Deci am crescut împreună, întâi pe stăzile pline de praf de la bunică-mea, apoi în camera care am împărțit-o pănă la liceu, iar în studenție într-un apartament. Când am intrat eu la liceu am schimbat pumnii și certurile pe o relație din ce în ce mai bună. Pentru că [...]
As we begin this list of the songs of Radiohead, we immediately run into the folly of such a project. After all, this is a band that pays strict attention to the thematic flow of their albums, which means a song like the ethereal instrumental "Treefingers" is stripped of much of its meaning when evaluated all by its lonesome.
Dene was confused by science This is tremendous news, James Yuill , who released his debut album 'Turning Down Water for Air' back in 2008, has given it the remix treatment, meaning a remix album and an excuse for me to blog about one of my favourite singles of the year, 'No Surprise'. I first heard of James a few years ago when I was living in North London, my then neighbour, Joel, who runs eARmusic , told me it'd be a crime not to check him out, so I did, and [...]
Ok veamos, te gusta el Folk? te gusta el Electro? Sí? En serio? No te creo, igual te presento a mi amigo James Yuill , un chico de Londres que un día de aquellos se cansó de la idea de formar una banda (entiendo), cogió su laptop, bajó el ableton, consiguió algunos juguetes de segunda en ebay y comenzó a hacer un estilo que suena tan bien y tan fresco que emociona. Según sus propias palabras prefiere que le digan que es un cruce entre Nick Drake [...]
There was a time, we suppose, before the term "laptop folk" existed, back when artists strummed guitars or pounded the ivories with just the basic instrument and a microphone at play. A one man band might have involved putting cymbals between your knees and maybe a harmonica bridge around your neck, but that was about it. Now we have DJs as well as artists from KT Tunstall to Imogen Heap, plugging in iPods or iMacs to the sound board, manipulating beats and instruments with a keystroke or two. Whatever we're harnessing creatively from this is still up for debate but [...]
MUSIC NEWS - Daughtry unveiled the title of its second album; it's Leave This Town and will be out on July 14, 2009 from 19 Recordings/RCA.

Much of the album is [...]
Per gli artisti che escono dai talent show televisivi, il secondo album è ancora più difficile che per gli artisti "normali" in quanto è molto alta la possibilità che il debutto sia solo un momentaneo successo trainato dal programma televisivo. Se però ti chiami Chris Daughtry e canti in una band, i Daughtry , che con l'omonimo debutto ha venduto quasi 4 milioni e mezzo di copie in USA, le cose potrebbero risultare più facili, anche perchè l'album continua a vendere 3.000 copie a settimana, segno che l'interesse verso il gruppo non è scomparso. [...]

Ahhh, Yuill! I just recently stumbled upon this gem from James Yuill and had to instantly grab his CD Turning Down Water For Air , which is a poppy, beat filled, electro-acoustic, record that will put the shuffle in your shoes. Check out the crunchy, funked out track called "No Pins Allowed" in the video above. It's great to hear a refreshing new mesh of folktronica. "No Surprise" is streamable below... No Surprise
