Here's an audio message from Archie Moore of Black Tambourine , along with some samples of the band covering the Ramones on the forthcoming OneTwoThreeFour EP release. I'm very proud and excited to be a backer of this project . From BT: " While the recordings are still in progress, we're super happy with how they're sounding and we think we definitely put the BT stamp on the songs. And to make it even more special, we've enlisted some old friends and special guests to help [...]

Terry Malts is such a bad ass band. Check out this live version of "Nauseous" for Yours Truly/Pitchfork.

How this band snuck under my radar yet again is beyond me, but I'm glad I stumbled across their new album today. It's titled Fast Forward, and it just came out this week on Fraction Discs, the band's Swedish label. Last time out, the band had support from Slumberland Records, but it's not like they'll need the extra love, as this album certainly speaks for itself. This time around the record's got a lot more bounce to it, and the girls seem to have tightened things up just a bit, making it a bouncy collection of really solid tracks. Definitely [...]
Where did this band come from? What did you they say their influences are again? Let Neverever whisk you away from all these silly worries.

At a glance, Frankie Rose looks like another hardcore chick from Brooklyn with a pair of scissors tattooed on her arm. She's pretty eye catching but if you took a deeper look or did more research, you'll know that Frankie Rose is a musician who released an album under Frankie Rose & The Outs and made an intimate appearance on MTV's Weird Vibes. Her interview on Weird Vides talked about the definition of garage music, which is was fittingly the sound from her last album. She was also briefly associated with Vivian Girls and Dum Dum [...]

Considering I had no idea what would be my first music-related post to kick off 2012 (I seriously haven't heard anything new in a few months), delving back into my emails seemed like a serious undertaking. Thankfully, it didn't take too long to find something that tickled my fancy: a new single/album from Frankie Rose ! While releasing a solid record in 2010 with Frankie Rose and the Outs (listen to it here via Spotify), it's become quite clear that the reverb-soaked girl-pop sound was starting to wear out [...]
Frankie Rose continues her trajectory into pristine pop territory of the late-80's and early...
Several years ago, the Vivian Girls re-introduced us to our love of girl-pop, and since that time, numerous acts have been spawned or seen on the side. Perhaps none has caught my ear as much as Frankie Rose , who pretty much gets tied into the lot of featured girl-groups. She's got a new record coming out on Slumberland Records on February 21 (a single comes out on the 17th of January) titled Interstellar . From this first track, there's a huge [...]
Evans The Death releases their self-titled debut in April, and from the sounds of the video for "I'm So Unclean" it's going to be quite the head-banger. But the five-piece didn't focus on any one particular sound throughout the twelve track debut, so the vibe of one song might not be the vibe of [...]
